Thom is having a hellish week. Not only is he hunting a double agent, but his fiancé dumped him, and thanks to his undercover life, she’s been kidnapped.

Turns out Thom is Operative Thom and he’s got more than a few secrets to share with Betty if he’s going to keep her alive. With both their lives on the line, their lackluster connection is suddenly replaced by an intense one. But in his line of work, feelings aren’t wanted or desired. Because feelings can be a lethal distraction.

Hello Readers.

I saw the cover for this book and I was intrigued. It pulled me in and demanded my attention. There are some truly terrible covers out there so it is refreshing to find those that are appealing. I saw this one and wondered "Mysterious Man, who are you? Are you lying or is someone else?" I ordered the book and pretty much attacked it the moment that I took it out of the box. What can I say? I know what interests me. 

I had heard good things about Kylie Scott's writing but had not read any of her work prior to this one. The control that she exhibits is lovely. Some of the characters are relatable and endearing. Some of the characters made me want to push them out a high rise window. With that said, all the characters were written well. The premise of the story was pretty solid. There were times that I did have to stop and think about what I had just read but it flowed well.  

I am rating this book Four Red Books because it was an enjoyable read. The overall feel of it was a good one and that is pretty special. I will be looking into the other works by the author based on my experience with this book. Recommend.
