Being a highly skilled operative for a company like Jameson Force Security is exhilarating and important work…until it comes time to date. I like to keep my profession under wraps for a number of reasons. Some of what we do is top secret, most of what we do is dangerous, and more than one woman has tried to latch onto me because she was more enamored with what I do than who Cage Murdock really … is. And since I’m more of a ‘here for the night’ than a ‘here for forever’ kind of guy, what’s the harm in a little white lie about my job?My harmless deceit has never failed me. Until now. Because I met the most amazing woman and did the unthinkable. I married her. And now my beautiful, unsuspecting, probably-going-to-leave-my-sorry-behind-when-she-finds-out-the-truth wife doesn’t know that I’m not a used car salesman like I told her when we met.As it typically does with lies, the truth is about to come out in a big way when Jaime unwittingly gets herself mixed up with some unsavory characters and I, along with the team at Jameson, have to intervene. Now I need to save my girl and hope I can save my marriage too. Let’s just say I have some serious explaining to do.

This is such a great series! Rook is another great addition! I couldn’t put this one down! It was a fast paced action packed book! I loved Jaime and Cage!! Although there were moments you just wanted to shake some sense into Cage!! There was no unnecessary or long drawn out drama, which I really appreciate. I can’t wait for the the next book in the series! I would definitely recommend this one!!
Received an arc for a honest review!!
Cage is one determined man. Lana ~White Hot Reads
Cage instantly falls for Jaime when he spots her at a bar with friends. She decides to approach him and they hit it off. One thing leads to another and Cage finds himself wanting more with Jaime. Only problem is he has told her a lie and is afraid to come clean. Of course his lie comes out in the worse possible way. Will Jaime forgive him or not is the question? Super fast read in a wonderful series.
I’m actually stunned how fast I finished this. Since I read Malik and Anna’s story I was dying to see what would happen between Cage and Jaime and I was not disappointed.
Thai story was filled with funny banter and i absolutely adored Jaime. She was fierce, strong and knew her worth. And Cage was a perfect specimen for how guys tent to do stupid shit. But he did everything he could to try and save their relationship so he gets brownies points.
Over all it was a fast, funny and quick read that had me smiling and rooting hard for outlet MCs to find theory HEA.

This is a series I will never tire off and Code Name: Rook ( Jameson Force Security #6) is a perfect addition to this wonderful series.
Cage Murdock lives for his job, an operative with no real roots means never giving himself to one woman and never giving a woman more than a couple of nights but a one night stand with Jaime turns into so much more and now he finds himself trying to explain what he really does for a living.
One night in Sin City leaves this couple married and that’s when the plot thickens as they embark on a journey of twists and turns….
Their journey will not only keep you turning the pages it will also keep you on the edge of your seat as they negotiate lies, trust issues and love, whilst trying to embark on a rescue mission.
Will Jaime forgive the man she thought she had married or will the truth destroy the love they share…
This book touched me on so many levels, the chemistry is sizzling, the characters are easy to fall for and the plot captivated me and let’s not forget the emotions because this is truly a heartfelt romance that will apply to a wide range of audiences. Another great read from the very talented Ms Bennett.
MY FAVORITE OF THE SERIES!
I loved Cage and Jaime together they have great chemistry and are comfortable just talking and hanging out, I think Jaime called them effortless which I would agree with because they didn’t have to put on a show to impress one another they were just perfect….well except for one little thing.
You know the saying once you start with a lie it only grows…well that is exactly what happens here.
Cage is not a forever type of guy, he’s the resident playboy at Jameson Force Security so he has a list of “boring” jobs that he uses when he’s looking for a one night stand that way the woman he’s hooking up with doesn’t get doe eyes when she thinks his job is sexy. That all backfires on him when he’s out for drinks one night after a mission gone well and Jaime approaches him, he tells her he’s a used car sales man but after spending time with her he finds he actually wants to spend more than just one night with her. Ladies if Cage was selling used cars I think we’d all be lined up looking for a new set of wheels…just sayin’
Jaime is a powerhouse! She is a social worker that helps women and their children leave their abusive spouses, she volunteers at a shelter, and she is a downright good person. One thing she doesn’t like is liars, oh and cheaters. She has an older brother that has been borrowing money from her and she knows he’s not telling her the truth about why he needs it but she doesn’t realize that she is being put in harms way by him.
This story runs parallel to Code Name: Ghost which is Malik and Anna’s story so we have some scenes that overlap in this book but we get it from a different aspect and it was fun to see how things played out. I have been really enjoying this series and while each book can be read as a standalone I suggest reading the series in order of release because you will see most of the characters in the various books since it’s about a group of people that work together. But like I said this can be read as a standalone if that is the way you choose to read it.
Happy Reading!!!
I liked seeing Cage and Jaime’s story after watching the outside of it in the last book. If you read the previous book, you know he started their relationship on a super stupid lie and couldn’t figure out how to come clean. If not, you can totally read this as a stand alone, too. Nothing frustrates me more than when characters are dishonest or hold stuff back and that’s the main problem. Because I want to yell at my book and tell them just to fess up, and that they are making something simple so complicated!
I started to wonder if this one would have less action, but nope. There’s some surprises and a big shake up. Jaime needs rescuing! But beyond that, I respect how strong she is when she needs to be. And I like how romantic Cage can be.
Code Name: Rook was cute, funny, and of course had the Jameson Force action. I was intrigued by Cage and Jaime’s relationship from Code Name: Ghost so I was happy to get their relationship from the start and see how it all happened. I enjoyed that you got Anna’s perspective on Cage and Jaime’s relationship in Code Name: Ghost and now you get Cage’s perspective on Anna and Malik’s relationship in Code Name: Rook. I enjoyed the Jameson aspect of the book and how it really tied into Cage and Jaime’s story, I think it was very fitting for the two of them. They’re a cute couple who didn’t expect to find each other when they did, and I really enjoyed reading their journey. I’m quite curious about the future books with the setup that Sawyer did with several characters. *I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.*
5 star Review Code Name: Rook (Jameson Force Security #6) by Sawyer Bennett
This is the sixth book in the Jameson Force Security series and I found myself just as entertained and riveted as I was with the previous books. Sawyer Bennett writes a story that is equal parts romance and suspense which makes for a well balanced, exciting and intriguing read.
I couldn’t wait to see what Ms.Bennett had in store for Cage Murdock, an operative who is always on the move, never giving a woman more than a night or two. I knew that the woman who would get to him would need to be special and Jaime certainly is. The only problem is she thinks she married a used car salesman. What will happen when the truth is revealed?
There were plenty of twists and turns and I was on the edge of my seat at times. The chemistry between Cage and Jaime is smoking hot and the story was emotional at times. When danger rears it’s head and Jaime is in the line of fire, Cage and the Jameson Force Security team will do whatever is necessary to save her.
Will Jaime be able to understand and forgive Cage or will their marriage be destroyed?
Well I couldn’t put down this book, so I read it in one sitting! Rook was incredible, I was blown away by this story and the twists and turns! best of the series so far!
4.5 Stars
Code Name: Rook is the 6th book in the Jameson Force Security Series. Code Name: Ghost and Code Name: Rook stories run concurrently. Each of these books in this series can be read as standalones. So if you just want to jump in and start on this series you can but If you want and have the time I would start at the beginning to get the full benefit of this series!
When I pick up a book to read it isn’t the cover that sells me on the book but the blurb that sells the book for me. After saying that, did you look at this cover? Cage Murdock is a hunk!
Cage Murdock finds himself in trouble with Jaime Dolan, a girl that he met at a bar and had a supposedly one night stand with. He lies to her about his career. A lie that he uses when he wants to get rid of the girl. Only he found he really likes this girl.
I loved the ending and how Cage fights to save their relationship! Sawyer Bennett books always keep me entertained and ready to read the next book she writes!
***4 Stars***
I’m sure that you are going to read something like this from anyone that read Ghost ~ I couldn’t wait to get all the dirty deets and the whole Cage lying to Jamie thing ~ because it was apart of what helped to make Malik and Anna’s book enjoyable and boy, lemme tell you, it was an experience. A fun, sweet, smexy and eye rolling experience as the lie grew as their own feelings grew for each other.
I loved Jamie. This woman is sweet, sassy, compassionate and strong. She loves hard and gives her all to her people, even when they may not deserve it. I have to be honest, I loved Cage. He is a good man that has all the good things when it comes to being an alpha AF male, but heaven help me ~ I wanted to Gibbs smack him throughout the entire book.
So, their journey. While Cage frustrated me to no end with his refusal to come clean to Jaime, I cannot deny that I loved them together. From their first collision and all the way through to the end, they just worked for me. Their bantering was on point, their chemistry intense and despite that little (big) lie, they really got to know each other and liked who the other person was down to their marrow. Now, as for how the lie was exposed and the aftermath…the way Cage got “caught” was definitely one for the books. The grovelling and subsequent HEA. I’m good with the HEA, but I’ve been waffling about the grovelling. There is apart of me that was impressed with how Cage went about things, but the other side wanted more. Then there is Jamie. I loved how she handled it, but I kinda wanted her to make him work harder. It’s a toss up and I will probably never settle on one side, but I’m happy they are together.
This was another great addition to the series. I loved getting to hang out with the JFS crew that was around and catching up with the ones I’ve already gotten to know and love and getting to the others better. There was a little tease of a possible couple in the making (C & C) and this one is looking to be quite intense, so all I can say is…bring on the next book!

Cage Murdock is a one and done man, hit em once , one night stand kind of man .. When he comes back from an exciting mission that is exactly what he is looking for BUT he didn’t plan on meeting Jamie Dolan .. the ONE that can change him forever.
Only once Jamie realizes Cage isn’t who he said he was the first night he knows she will never give him the time of day again sooooo he keeps the fib going .. BUT when will he stop ?? Jamie has been through enough with her last boyfriend and the last thing we wants is a boyfriend but Cage is just a lovable car salesman .. how bad can he be ?? She has NO idea what she is in store for !!!!
Cage knows in his heart Jamie is his sole mate and if he doesn’t get his head out of the clouds Jamie will be a memory. With Jamie’s job and past history with men .. she doesn’t like to be lied to .. no if and or but’s .. TRUTH is the only option !! When her brother gets her in a little bit of trouble and Cage and the Jameson Group have to SAVE her ALL hell breaks loose and ohhh bot does Cage get it !!
Can LOVE conquer all ?? Will Jamie be willing to see Cages side of his story of why he told the untruth and kept it going and going and going .. Even Anne and Malik tries to get him to see the light !!
This installment of the Jamison Group was FANTASTIC and you get the true sense of what it means to be in there circle or should I say there .. FAMILY !! Loved every WORD !!
I can’t imagine Jaime and Cage’s story being any better! Suspense, lies and chemistry make this a trifecta of perfection. We got to know a bit about Jaime and Cage from Code Name: Ghost so I was VERY interested to see how Cage was going to dig himself out of the giant hole he found himself in. Sawyer Bennett did not disappoint! I love that this is based in Pittsburgh. Someone should live in the South Hills, Sawyer.
5 stars!!
Once again Sawyer Bennett creates two characters that are truly amazing. When Jamie meets Cage he tells her he is a used car salesman. Cage is a bit of a playboy and only into one-night stands. He doesn’t want anyone knowing what he does for a living so he makes us fake occupations knowing he will never see these women again. Not only does he have a second date with Jamie but a third and fourth and so on and so on. LOL. He falls hard for her and knows he has to tell her about working for Jameson but now the more time that passes he is afraid he will lose her when she finds out. But the biggest obstacle now is they went to Vegas and got married. Jamie still doesn’t know. How will she react is anyone’s guess. But what he feels for her is real. That is what scares him so much. The friends he confides in all tell him the same thing – tell Jamie the truth and not wait any longer.
Sawyer Bennett’s stories are so unique in their own way. Each one tells a different story of the couple and every one is amazing. They keep you glued to every word and often times keep you up all night just to see what happens. They are filled with friendship, love, hot chemistry, family in all ways, not just blood, and everything that results in an amazing unforgettable read. She always delivers for her readers. Her stories are always beyond the stars.
Follow along with Jaime and Cage as they take a Rollercoaster ride that will bring Cage to his knees and break Jaime’s heart when lies and secrets are brought to the front when Cage is trying to save Jaime. Loved it!! I volunteered an honest opinion for this book
In Cage’s line of work as a Jameson Security Operative it is hard to find true love. So when he is instantly attracted to a woman in a crowded bar a small lie about his employment should not be a big issue because he thinks it might lead to just a one night stand. But the sparks between Cage and Jaime are more serious than either thought would happen. The small lie ends up being so much more. How can he now tell her the truth? What will she do when the truth comes out? I absolutely loved Cage in the previous book in the series and was so happy when he got his own. Once again Sawyer Bennett creates characters and storylines that the reader becomes emotionally involved in and they cannot put it down until the very last page. Highly entertaining and a wonderful read.
Code name: Rook is about Cage and Jaime. Cage is feeling good about a job and decides to go get a beer, what he finds is Jaime and the best one night stand of his life. A lie and he’s in deep. Can love save him? How about a quick Vegas wedding? How about propelling into a window for a rescue? Cage is going to have to grovel and maybe even beg. Couldn’t put it down……loved Cage and Jaime!!
I have been enjoying this series so much! All of the team members of Jameson Force Security have given us so many hours of reading pleasure thanks to this amazing author and her storytelling skills. Rook is about Cage Murdock. I was really looking forward to Cage’s story after having seen him interact with Anna and her daughter in Ghost. And I can happily say it lived up to my expectations.
Cage is a former Navy SEAL and an incredible operative for Jameson. His job keeps him extremely busy so hook-ups have been what have always worked for him. But then one night while out at a bar by himself, he meets Jaime, who is a social worker and such an awesome woman. They flirt and really connect first prior to anything physical, but that does come later that same night. They are super steamy together. He was certainly not looking for more than his usual hookup but after one night he knew it was not enough. And everything was so easy between them and their chemistry is out of this world. The one crucial mistake he makes is not telling her about his real job. And boy how that little lie snowballs, and Jaime has a real problem with dishonesty after her last relationship. I really like how the story unfolds and of course how everything turns out. I also love the extent of how some of the others at Jameson get involved and Jaime’s family too. Sawyer’s books always leave me with such a full heart and a big smile on my face. I loved it!!
This is book #6 in the Jameson Force Security Series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. To avoid spoilers, and fully understand the series, I recommend reading this series in order.
Jaime finds herself being charmed by a hot man who thinks she is beautiful. It’s a treat to be wanted, and even better appreciated. It is electric chemistry almost from the very beginning. And it’s mutual…..
Cage is back from a difficult mission. He needs some down time. Why not spend it with someone who is fascinating? He really likes her and actually wants to be around her. Maybe its time to give a relationship a chance?
The heat in this story starts right from the beginning. I love how this couple is attracted to one another so much they can barely be apart. The pace of the story moves well, and goes kind of quick. This fits the lifestyle, and this works to sell the storyline. Rich and deep characters, we have looked forward to this book – and I loved it.

Hard to say, but I think it’s my favorite so far!!!
Cage & Jaime’s story was just great fun to read! As a member of Jameson Force Security, we’ve seen Cage be a big part of some their missions. He lives his life for his job and has no problem attracting a lady when he wants one. He never tells the women he’s with what he does for a living, for fear they’ll become fascinated with him and get too clingy. It’s all good until he comes back from a mission and goes out alone to get a drink & maybe pick up a woman for the night.
While he’s checking out the bar, he sees a redhead that catches his attention. She approaches him just as he’s about to leave, and they hit it off immediately. They end up at her apartment, both assuming this will be just a one-nighter, but they both feel something more come morning. Cage says he’ll call Jaime, but she’s not buying it. (And, adorably, he calls her as soon as he hits the street & asks her out that evening for dinner!)
They begin seeing each other practically every day, which shocks Cage beyond words. He never expected to have these feelings for Jaime. I mean, he doesn’t do the relationship-commitment thing (or does he?)!
Everything seems to be going perfectly for them, except for the fact that Cage still hasn’t come clean about what he does for a living. As far as Jaime knows, he’s a used car salesman!
From here we watch their relationship bloom. There are some surprises in their story, like, when Jamie finds what exactly what Cage does for a living and HOW she finds out.
I loved them together and just feel this story was terrific. I’ll be re-reading this book again, very soon! Great addition to the Jameson Force Series!!
