All I can say is wow. Get ready for the ride of your life.
This is a story about trust. This is a story about people
who develop the ability to strike emotion from their lives
in order to survive. This is a story about what happens when
those in power misuse that power and devalue the inherit
trust developed with those in their command. This is a story
about what could happen when someone in power changes from
ethical to criminal and the effect on those in the chain of
command.
Alexa Gavlin and Killian Moore have a lot in common. Both
have been undercover operatives for government agencies,
both have been compromised in the line of duty. One of them
is running for their life and the other is the hunter. The
story takes place in 28 days and the reader is living those
28 days along with the characters. Alexa Gavlin is a
beautiful, brave, intelligent and resourceful agent whose
job is to use her beauty to infiltrate the worlds of some of
the most dangerous men, get information and then get out.
But what happens when her target decides to use her as a
weapon in his scheme. All the ensuing events seem to point
the blame in her direction and her worse nightmare comes
true -- the agency seems to have cut her loose. Translation --
she is on her own with only her resourcefulness to keep her
alive. Killian Moore has been hired to find this rogue agent
and retire her. Problem is Moore starts to realize that the
assignment isn't what it was professed to be and now he is
out to get to the truth. But even more difficult then
solving the puzzle is gaining the trust of Alexa.
NAKED TRUTH, by Amy J. Fetzer, makes you wonder how any one,
much less a woman, can work as an undercover government
agent. The sequence of events keeps you on the edge of your
seat as Fetzer makes the reader an eye witness to acts of
cruelty and torture that would make a regular person run for
their lives and yet those brave souls who are the government
watch dogs are expected to overcome all obstacles and return
to business as usual. Fetzer does an admiral job keeping her
characters human and as such vulnerable and mortal. The
relationship between Alexa and Killian develops with some
interesting twists and turns and enough heat to make you fan
yourself. While they are the central characters, Fetzer
surrounds them with a diverse group you either despise or
admire. Details surrounding the military and intelligence
communities are rather amazing and oft times have you
wondering where fiction leaves off and facts begin.
Clandestine operative Alexa Gavlin has nothing left. No
country. No contacts. And no memory. Thirty days have been
chemically erased. Stolen by whom -- she knows. Why --that's
anyone's guess. Accused of murder and treason, Alexa becomes
the hunted, trapped by what she can't remember and betrayed
by her own people. Struggling to refit the puzzle before
someone catches her between the crosshairs, her new mission
is to stay alive long enough to learn the truth. Till she
meets the man behind the laser sight...
Killian Moore is a lot of things, former Marine, retrieval
expert, and pissed off. Blackmailed into hunting down the
operative suspected of ruining his career, Killian sees
Alexa as nothing more than some sexy vital statistics and
the means to clear his name. His mission is specific, bring
her in or take her out -- until he locks horns with the
beautiful agent and everything he believes and feels
unravels with each encounter. He tells himself she's an
expert at deception, yet what they share between the sheets
is raw, tender, and very real. But she's on the run again,
and Killian knows if he doesn't catch her, the enemy will.
Alexa has every reason to be wary, but Killian desperately
needs her to believe in him. Cut off from their government,
betrayed and hunted, they can rely on no one but each other.
From the jungles of Colombia to the sparkling metropolis of
Hong Kong , as each piece falls into place, Alexa and
Killian learn that nothing is as it seems, and stopping
terrorists set on a collision course will test their
precious trust to the absolute limits.
