From Goodreads

DEA agent Eve Taylor has had her fill of alpha males. When Resolutions’ operative and former lover, Dillon “Mac” McKenna, threatened her hard-earned independence, she ran. On a mission to gather evidence against a Colombian drug-lord, Eve discovers the drug-lord is helping terrorists plan an attack on American soil. Before she can escape with the vital information, she’s captured and comes face to face with her mortality…

As a teen, Mac watched his family fall apart after his mother died doing dangerous U.N. work. The possibility of losing Eve to a mission ignited an overwhelming need to protect her. When he forced her to choose him or her job, she walked away. Two years later, it seems all his nightmares have come true and he’s tasked with rescuing her from a Colombian prison. Mac has never stopped loving Eve, but does he dare risk his heart when he’s so terrified of losing…

On the run, Mac and Eve must learn to trust each other again in order to stay alive.

This is an action packed book from beginning to end. It has twists and turns that keep you guessing. I loved the fact that I was totally thrown by the villain and I was completely off base by who I thought betrayed Eve.

Eve is stubborn and hardheaded woman. I liked her most of the time however I did think she made things more difficult for herself for herself by baiting her captors. That was not something she would have been taught, in fact they would have taught her to not do that. She was very good at her job and I felt bad for her finding out she had a mole. That betrayal stung badly and she had no problem getting her vengeance to save her lives.

Mac is an alpha male but he got a little caveman at times. I think he just struggled with putting Eve in harm’s way after losing his mom. Once he saw that Eve was good at her job he realized that maybe he was wrong about his preconceived notions.  He isn’t the most eloquent and it does get him in trouble with Eve a time or two. lol

Talk about a trip from hell. Torture, being shot at, being captured then betrayed oh and in country where no speaks English. That would drive a woman to tears but not Eve she put on her big girl panties. The plot is hooks you. While I did have some problems at times with the main characters it was still a very good read. This is a wild ride which I suggest you take if you like romantic suspense.

About the author:

Teri Riggs was destined to be a writer. As a small girl she didn’t read bedtime stories, she made up her own. Who needed Little Red Riding Hood or The Three Little Pigs when there were so many great tales bouncing around in her head? When she grew up and became a mother to three little girls, she continued the tradition of making up bedtime stories. On the occasions she chose to tell conventional fairytales, Teri usually gave them a bit of tweaking here and there or added a new ending. Her girls loved it. 

After her daughters had the nerve to actually grow up and leave home, Teri discovered she had a passion for writing and jumped right in. It came as no surprise she chose to write mysteries and happily-ever-after’s since that’s the genres she loves to read.

Teri lives in Marietta, Georgia with her husband, one of her daughters and two dogs that seem to think they rule the world. And some days Teri thinks maybe they do.

Teri still frequently tells herself stories as she falls asleep. The only difference now is she wakes up the next morning and turns her bedtime stories into books.
