review 1: This is not the type of book I generally read. Government and covert operations are not something with which I am familiar. I'll admit it, chaos and danger in a book make me exceedingly tense. Romance, however is right up my alley. This book reminded me of the action movie that is pleasing as a date night movie. Lots of action that keeps you on the edge of your seat and romance so you can swoon along the way. The constant twists and turns kept me reading to see what was to become of the characters. The romance factor made me smile and satisfied my need for a love story amidst the chaos. My knowledge of government activities is limited so there were areas where I was confused. That was directly related to my own inexperience in this arena. My only issue was Marissa's choice... mores toward the end of the book. Other than that, good read that kept me on the edge of my seat.
review 2: I received an ARC from the author in exchange for my honest review, so here it is. I love this Guardian series. Each story is of a different guardian and their fierce loyalty and protection of their country and those they love. AGS lead is Viktor Baran and he is a take no prisoners kind of person. He will do anything to protect other guardians. While working on cases his contact at the CIA is Marissa Cole and the sparks fly between them each time they are close. He wants more and she doesn't want to get her heart broken like she did eight years ago. Viktor wants her back in his bed, since they split eight years ago, he has not found anyone to give him what he needs. There has been others but none of them were Marissa. While they are working together to find who is targeting the U.S. with nerve gas and killing agents from the FBI, CIA and AGS, they succumb to the feelings between them. This story will have you want more to find out who the bad guys are and what or who they want. If you haven't read this series yet, you show pick it up. Victoria Paige had a great writing style and these stories are well worth the time to get lost in and enjoy them. Can't wait for the next one! less
