5 out of 5 stars
Lyla Fox is great at what she does for the Snap Agency, but it’s her impulsiveness that is going to get her in trouble or worse. Always feeling like she was different growing up, Lyla felt she always had to prove herself. She tells herself she is going the extra mile for the cases she works on, others – mainly Nicolas Garcia- sees Lyla as an unnecessary risk taker. Now that she appears to be targeted by a man she put in prison, she needs a little help. Nicolas is willing to give her a hand, but will Lyla be able to curb her recklessness to Nicolas’ satisfaction?
Nicolas Garcia, weapons and explosives specialist, enjoys the camaraderie he feels with the Snap team, but it would be better if Lyla wasn’t so impulsive. Admittedly, she’s good at what she does. However, Nicolas is afraid the risks she takes are going to be her undoing. When Lyla becomes the target, he wants to help in order to keep her safe. Even so, he must ask himself is it because she’s part of the team or do his feelings run deeper than that?
The sparks between Lyla and Nicolas are evident from the get-go, that is to everyone but them. They bicker like brother and sister, but that’s only because neither of them is willing to explore their true feelings for each other. Lyla is constantly frustrated with Nicolas’ lack of trust in what she does, and he doesn’t think they have a chance at a relationship because Lyla constantly puts herself in dangerous situations. When Nicholas is offered another job, he seriously considers it. Not because he doesn’t like what he does at the Snap Agency, but because he doesn’t feel he can continue to stand by and watch Lyla put herself in jeopardy.
This was a great book! Intense relationships and situations. Amazing characters that act like family. Bickering, jokes, give and take, everyone at the Snap Agency has a vested interest in each other. That’s what makes dangerous situations even more precarious. Everyone is invested far beyond coworkers. This is the third book, so we see how everyone’s relationships have blossomed. It was only natural for Lyla and Nicolas to be drawn to each other, but they both are so stubborn, neither can see the others point of view. The drama starts immediately and had me turning the pages as quick as I could. This is easily a one-day read. You absolutely will not be disappointed.
Though I was given an advance copy of this book from Baker Publishing in exchange for a review, I was not obligated to give a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are strictly my own.
