This is the perfect blend of book for me, intrigue and a dash of romance thrown in for good measure. This is something that has set Rachel Kall apart from other romance authors I read. Her novels are predominantly about whatever conspiracy/crime is underway.This time round we see Scott Ranger, who appeared as Viv’s ex in Race to Kill, rescuing journalist Rowena Murphy after she is kidnapped in Afghanistan. Only problem is that that kidnapping was more than a random event, as he discovers 6months later when Rowena attempts to track down the SEAL who rescued her.The SEAL who rescued her made such an impression on her that she believes that he will be able to help her with the story that she has been working on for a while. This story involves some new weapon technology and said weapons illegal testing.The characters as in previous installments are well written and likeable, the action fast paced and intense and the romance a good addition to the story. I have just one quibble with the romance in this story and that is after the conspirators have been rounded up and the couple declare themselves, this was the only corny moment that made me cringe.It is lovely seeing Marcus Locke again who was the lead in Race to Kill and this is just another way that Rachel Kall is creating a great series. By using characters who have appeared in previous installments you feel compelled to either re-read the previous books or, if you have not already done so, buy them and read them.Please note I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
