There is a shark attacking and are Royce and Victoria's bites bigger than the sharks? When reading, For Love or Vengeance, Johnny Ray shocked me with his cover. Have you ever seen a cover that is as good as the book? This romance novel allows women and men, young adults and any adult age group to enjoy because it has drama, suspense, comedy, and romance.It is better than a TV show, in that you get in-depth information on what Royce and Victoria are doing and thinking, along with the rest of the characters in this book that reminds me of the Alias tv show and CSI with a romance plot like some episodes of Perry Mason with an addition of GI Joe and GI Jane.Do you want to feel like you could have lived the life of an agent or double agent in the FBI? The CIA? Other groups that are subsidiaries of these? Do you want to read and feel the lives of those who would get into and out of situations where their careers & projects could never be sacrificed and they always have to tell little white lies to protect their missions? How do spies/agents allow themselves to stay detached from it all and deal with the pressures of work. Do they have a life outside of it?This book addresses many of the secrets people have as an agent for their country. A good thing about this book is that Johnny Ray was able to convey- there are many different levels of espionage. There are spies that want to assist and those who want to get in the way. There are many grey areas in between.If you can't tell your career, some of your background and lifestyle, or get too close to people... how will you ever be able to have an intimate relationship? If you are a double agent that deals with two very competitive companies, will you come out alive? Will you be able to have what it takes to get past loyal secret groups that you aren't even sure of? Would you be able to get away with staging life, or even death? Would you do it time and time again if ever hurt or those you love hurt?There can always be more and more romance in every book for those die hard fans of intimacy, but can there ever be enough conflict resolution that shows that the mind is a powerful thing if it is muscled to be a survival machine 100% of the time? Or in this case 99%.This book covers what life covers, the struggles, pain, and the love... to get where we want to get... to be what we want to be.
