Calista is on a mission for vengeance, and the last thing she needs is the tempting distraction of the infuriating yet irresistible Mason. But when their missions become dangerously entangled, she finds herself relying on his lethal skills to stay alive.
As they work to expose an international trafficking ring, the heat between them becomes impossible to deny. Mason’s protective instincts war with Calista’s need to handle things alone. But in a world of deadly secrets and powerful enemies, trusting the wrong person could be fatal.
When Calista’s past catches up with them both, they’ll have to decide if the chance at love is worth risking everything they’ve fought to protect.
This book was a little uneven for me. I really liked Mason and Calista, even the parts where they were pretending not to like one another, or fighting with one another.
But, for me the evolution of the relationship between them seemed a little choppy, like it was moving forward, and then it wasn't. While I do understand a lot of this was because of the way the story of their relationship was also happening within the story of the mission they were on, it left me feeling like I was struggling to keep up with where we were in their story and as a result, not always able to pick it up immediately or to get back into the flow of their romance.
That said, I liked both of them and I wanted to see them get their happily ever after and to catch the bad guys, which was a huge subplot to the romance.
This one wasn't perfect, but I liked the characters enough to want to see how it resolved, even though it did feel like it was a little choppy in some places.
