Summary
Egan Maddox isn’t sure he’s the right man for the job when Northstar director Byron O’Neal asks him to find his missing daughter and protect her from an unknown danger. Egan’s never shaken off his attraction to Kellee O’Neal and hiding away with her could be more trouble than this former Navy SEAL can handle.
Kellee is lost, with no memory, and believes someone wants to hurt her. When Egan appears and seems to know her, he convinces her she’ll be safe with him. As her memories resurface, she turns to Egan for comfort, and her youthful crush transforms into a womanly passion she can’t deny.
With the Russian Mafia closing in, Kellee learns her entire life has been a lie. How can her love for Egan be enough to help her navigate the murky waters of her past and prove that her heritage doesn’t matter as much as the woman she’s become?

interesting with a touch of frustration...
This was my first book in the series. It was action packed, with interesting and relevant back stories for the two main characters. It certainly wasn't boring or slowpaced. Also, it works well as a standalone story as I didn't feel like I had to listen or read the previous book to enjoy this one.
However I did find the plot a little frustrating. On one hand Egan is high handed, demanding and controlling. He is the more worldly wise and experienced of the two and when it seems slightly unnecessary, takes complete charge of Kelly and the situation. But, when it comes to the real pressing issues, he suddenly lets Kelly make decisions (to give him credit, he does make contingency plans). Kelly, meanwhile, has a mild too-stupid-to-live vibe with what she chooses to do. To be fair, the author is aware of these character flaws and addresses them before the story ends.
As with any suspense filled romance, the characters battle their attraction to each other as much as they battle the enemy. The resolution isn't quite as expected and I hope these characters make an appearance in other books in the series. I would like to know how they manage themselves.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
