Callum Ross has a tough decision to make. After years of working for the covert ops agency in the UK and owning his own security firm in the US, he’s forced to choose between the business he loves, and the new fragile relationship with his partner, Josh Cooper.
A bottle of whiskey and almost being killed by a motorbike helps Cal make the decision, and he moves to the UK with plans to set up his own security consultancy. Then the head of the covert ops agency where Josh now works asks Cal for help. Agency operatives and their families are being injured or killed, including Cal’s friends.
Cal is asked to investigate with Josh’s assistance. As the number of victims increase, they’re aware either of them could be the next target for the killer. Josh wants Cal to back away from the investigation in case he gets hurt, but Cal refuses, putting a strain on their relationship.
Then they discover the motorbike incident wasn’t an accident. Who tried to kill him, and why?
Review
This
book starts with not one but two bangs, and we’re immediately straight into the
action. And from that moment forward there is hardly any quiet time for our two
men and those they share their secret service lifestyle with. Nobody is given a
breather as the assassinations and attempted murders continue fast and furious
while Cal and Josh struggle to keep up with developments and for a long time
have no idea what is happening or why. All I could do was hold on to my kindle
and slide through the pages as fast as I could and I loved every minute of it.
In
a good thriller the reader is kept guessing as to where the threat is coming
from, why it is there, and who’s behind it. I kinda loved that, for a while at
least, Cal shared this ‘frustration’ with the reader, having as little idea
what was going on as I did. Not that his position improved much once he’d been
recruited into the investigation; then he found himself in the dark but on the
inside. I, on the other hand, had my suspicions rather early on and still haven’t
made up my mind whether I’m proud or disappointed that I turned out to be
right.
I
fell hard and fast for Cal and Josh, AKA Charlie and Angel, in Morning My Angel and I love them even more after this book. In fact, the thing
about these two books I totally adore most is the snarky yet loving interaction
between these two men while they find themselves under constant threat and the
world around them is on fire. While this is definitely a high-octane and
incredibly fast-paced story, Cal and Josh always find moments to ease the
tension for themselves and for the reader for a few moments, be it through
(very) sexy times, snarky conversations, or lovingly taking care of each other.
I
guess this book could be read without reading Morning My Angel first,
but I would advise against such a course of action. You’ll get far more out of
both books if you read them in the right order.
And
then the story ends…except that it doesn’t. Not in the strictest sense of the
word ‘ending’. Answers are provided but closure not so much. While I have a
deep-rooted dislike for cliff-hangers, this book only left me yearning for
more, not feeling cheated or frustrated. Having said that, I could do with Sue
Brown typing at double-time and providing me with the next Angel Enterprises title
like…yesterday J
In the meantime I highly recommend this book to those who enjoy a fast-paced,
heart-stopping, sexy, and at times funny romantic thriller.
