Via Negalley I had the opportunity to receive from the Publisher Revell this soft mystery/romance novel. These are my thoughts I have not been influence by this gift.
Defend and Protect Book #1
Set in North Carolina this story has US Secret Service Special Agent Luke Powell and FBI Special Agent Faith Malone working as a team on the same case. This is very personal for Luke; three of his fellow agents have died in unusual circumstances in recent weeks. They were experts in shielding others now they are in need of protectors. Faith is put in charge of the investigation but how to fight back when you have no idea who is behind the attacks.
The story opens with a bang: bullet wounds and explosions...who would have a vendetta against the Secret Service agents....this is the million dollar question that is intriguing. From the get-go the storyline is intense with some thrilling moments that come along at the right moment. I particularly enjoyed the tension between Luke and Faith although both stayed professional in their investigation. To make things exciting, just when the case starts to get solved Luke and Faith muddy the waters by admitting their mutual attraction...awe....The story is definitely an attention grabber that held me captive till I reach the final chapter. This story is not gory or overly violent it is more an action/suspense/romance novel which is very softly written and includes a great amount of acronyms to challenge us. The author does a fantastic job balancing the action scenes with investigative scenes and relationships. A lot is going on; all threads are handled with ease. I particularly liked that the threat against the agents remained unknown for a long time.... it gave me something to speculate on.
I loved those two characters: Luke, the handsome, headstrong and cocky agent simply made me smile and Faith, a gentle, sensitive yet strong person is the dream female agent....again awe...
Well-said, well-done. I am looking forward to book#2
