This is a great quick read. The book is full of twist and turns. The characters fight past demons and feelings for each other. This book was hard to put down.
Secret Service Setup proves again why I have never been disappointed with a Jessica Patch novel! This book is the second in the Security Specialists series. A reader can definitely enjoy this as a standalone, but if you have the chance I would definitely treat yourself to the first in the series as well.
The action starts on page one and doesn’t stop until the very end! A bounty has been placed on Evan, a secret service agent. Jody, a former agent, has been tasked with keeping him safe. Jody and Evan have a history of a past relationship and Jody losing her job as a result of Evan. It is soon discovered that whoever is after Evan wants Jody dead as well. This novel delves into the dark web and gun running making the reader unsure the whole time of who can and can’t be trusted. Jody and Evan find themselves in many perilous situations as they are running from those trying to kill them and collect the money offered for the hit while also trying to find answers to who is behind all this.
I appreciated a strong heroine, just the right amount of romance, and a storyline that kept me guessing. It was impressive that the story was full of action as well as realistic well-developed characters. Readers get to walk alongside Jody and Evan as they deal with issues of forgiving others as well as themselves, rebuilding trust, and redemption. If you are looking for a romantic suspense novel that forces the reader to constantly question who can be trusted, what secrets are going to be revealed, etc. then Secret Service Setup is the book for you!
I can’t wait for the next one in the series!
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
Wow, I can’t get enough of this author! Another fabulous edge-of-your-seat suspense. An up-all-nighter because danger, suspense, chases, and so much mystery abound on every page and you just cannot put it down. Evan and Jody have chemistry that sparks off the pages and gives it the believable romance inside of the danger. You don’t know who to trust and so much detail goes into the hiding and deception – it is fantastic! And the little “gift” of Jody’s? SUCH a cool addition to the story. Bookshelf keeper for sure.
This is a “what could possibly be coming next, running for your lives story that I didn’t want to put down until I finished it!” With some haunting hurts to overcome and personal moments all told in a look over your shoulder here it comes again I wondered what will they do now? I also liked the faith element throughout.
