A former marine must help a Russian spy…

But can he trust her?

Force Recon marine Mack Balkman would do anything for Declan’s Defenders and the boss who gave him a second chance. But aiding a rogue Russian spy pushes his loyalty to the limits. Beautiful, cunning Riley Lansing loves her adopted country—and her baby brother, who is being held for ransom. Can they work together to find the young boy before Riley’s handler learns that she has gone rogue?

 

Action packed adventure! With the second book in the Declan’s Defenders series, we get Mack’s story. He’s tasked with helping someone he’s not totally sure is on the up and up, but it doesn’t stop him from falling for her quickly. The action starts very quickly and held my attention throughout. Really enjoying this series!

Former Marine Mack Balkman is grateful to have another job with his former teammates now that they are all out of the military. He never expects a night of protecting their benefactor Charlie will lead to him meeting a Russian spy that catches his eye.

Aerospace engineer Riley Lansing just got through with the turmoil of helping the FBI with an investigation of corruption at her workplace and now her little brother has been kidnapped and she’s been ordered to do things she has no interest in doing to get him back. Mack isn’t sure he can trust her, but the temptation is too great not to take the risk.
