Zachary Adams is not sure he wants to join Covert Cowboys
Inc. He does fits the bill for Hank Derringer's operation;
he's an ex FBI agent. But his last experience was so
mentally debilitating that he just doesn't know if he can
still do this. Hank's ranch is right next to the Big Elk
Ranch where Jacie Kosart works as a hunting tour guide. When
her twin sister Tracie comes for a surprise visit, Jacie
takes her on a tour with two hunters into a canyon area they
don't usually use. This specific area, however, was
requested by the two hunters. When it is time to turn back,
the hunters refuse and continue on down the trail. Jacie and
Tracie follow, but someone begins shooting at them and
everyone gets separated. Jacie finds the hunters dead and
her sister is kidnapped.
Hank assigns Zachary to this case because Tracie came to him
days earlier and requested some possible help from Hank.
Zach is not sure he's the right man for the job. The
authorities believe a Mexican drug cartel is at the bottom
of this and discover that the two hunters were really DEA
agents. Working with the FBI and DEA, Zach and Jacie strike
off to do some investigating on their own. While following
up on a lead, Jacie is kidnapped too. Zach is determined to
find the people responsible and bring them to justice.
This is my second visit with the Covert Cowboys. The
story
is fast-paced and action- packed. Jacie and Zach are strong
characters, but can't seem to keep their hands off each
other. There is an electric attraction between them, but
Zach is afraid to get emotionally involved. The two
characters make a great team, always having each other's
back when they get into tight situations. It's hard to tell
who you can trust and who you can't, and you're never quite
sure where the plot is headed. This is a great quick read
for the summer, full of suspense and a little steamy
romance. Add this one to your list.
A kidnapping offers an FBI agent a second chance at
redemption in Elle James's Covert Cowboys, Inc. miniseries
After witnessing the murder of his partner, former FBI agent
Zach Adams suffers the weight of his own guilt. An
unexpected assignment hunting down the members of the Texas
gang responsible-who have kidnapped a local woman-could
offer long-awaited revenge.
Zach understands the danger of tracking the cartel, but it's
his desire for the sister of the missing person that he
fails to anticipate. Determined to find her twin, Jacie
Kosart is as strong-willed as she is alluring. But when
Zach's ruthless search for the kidnappers lands Jacie in the
crosshairs of deadly enemies, Zach realizes he'll risk
everything to keep her alive...even if it means confronting
the demons of his own past.
