Fresh Fiction Review

Shattered Duty

Romance Suspense

Years earlier Special Agent Levi Lazaro rescues a teenager in the hands of evil and that job led him to a new world. That world is shattered when his wife is murdered. He can only think of revenge that has led him to SHATTERED DUTY. He now has the identities of those who destroyed his life and nothing will stop him from taking his vengeance.

Special Agent Selene Wolfe has taken pride in being the best, her fearlessness and quick thinking has made her the perfect person to take down a deadly terrorist cell. But she needs help ... Levi Lazaro's type of help. But the moment he shows up she knows her heart and objectivity are in danger.

With an uneasy alliance, Levi finds himself tormented. Not by what he has planned but by the totally unexpected desire he feels for Selene. He thought that part of him was dead and this brings him to a crossroads. He has a choice ... his revenge or saving the life of the woman who has awakened his soul.

SHATTERED DUTY is a superb, heart pounding, must read. This is another offering of author Katie Reus' Deadly Ops series and is just as fresh and alive as the first. The characters are both a bit on the screwed up side so of course they are perfect for each other. Levi is good man who is torn with the loss of his wife and desperate for vengeance despite his true conscious. Selene was recruited young and trained, there is little that she cannot do, but she has never been in love until now. The steamy quantity and quality is outstanding as are the twists and turns that keep you glued to the pages. The action is plentiful but there is also the drama we get to watch as they try to work out a good plan all the while fighting their growing attraction for each other. Of course that is a losing battle or we romance readers would not get our much needed HEA ... of course the best is the surprise at the end that just melted my heart. If you are looking for a kick butt hero and heroine with a good mix of hot action of all kinds then Ms. Reus' SHATTERED DUTY is one of the must reads.

SUMMARY

A new novel from the author of Bound to Danger who “has the amazing ability of pulling the reader onto the front lines of the action and drama.” (The Reading Café)

When his wife was murdered two years ago, Special Agent Levi Lazaro turned his back on everything he cared about. Ever since, he has thought of nothing but vengeance. Now he's finally uncovered the identities of those who killed his wife—and he's ready to destroy them at any cost. He won’t let anything stand in his way—not even a beautiful NSA agent on a mission of her own.

Special Agent Selene Wolfe prides herself on being the best. Her fearlessness and quick-thinking make her the perfect person to take down a deadly terrorist cell. But she needs Levi’s help, and the moment he shows up, Selene knows her objectivity—and her heart—are in trouble.

As the two strike an uneasy alliance, Levi finds himself tormented by his desire for Selene—a feeling he thought long dead. But when their mission takes an unexpected turn, he finds himself at a crossroads. Can he put aside his need for revenge to save the woman who’s reawakened his soul?
