KILLER SECRETS

Romance Suspense | Romance Erotica Sensual

Navy SEAL Ian Richards fights for those who cannot. Listed as a deserter who has gone to the other side to take over his biological father's drug cartel, Ian sees his father as nothing more than a monster.

Ian's best friend, Nathan, was tortured and drugged for more than a year at the hands of Diego Fuentes and a French terrorist that many groups are after. Ian made a deal with Diego that if he let Nathan go, Ian would take over the role of his son, run the drug cartel and fight the French terrorist who plans to take over the cartel. Ian has vowed that he will do whatever it takes to make Diego pay for torturing Nathan, the fact that Diego is his father makes this vow even more personal.

Ian makes his base in Aruba and starts his role as the Fuentes drug lord. His SEAL team, not believing Ian capable of deserting, arrives on the island to see what he's up to and provide backup should he ever break down and contact them. Ian knows they're on the island, but he doesn't want any of his friends to put their lives on the line for his personal mission.

Kira Porter is a contract agent. She has signed on with the Department of Homeland Security to travel to Aruba and get close to Ian. Her mission is to stop him from killing his father. The DHS has an agreement with Diego to hand over valuable information in exchange for no harm to his drug business. Kira gladly accepts the mission because she's in love with Ian. They met during a mission in Atlanta the previous year, (HIDDEN AGENDAS). Aware of each other for years, it was their time together in Atlanta that set off the sparks.

Kira is known as the Chameleon. Ian accepts that Kira can take care of herself, though his male protective genes march right to the front. He tries to convince her to leave Aruba before the danger escalates. She's a distraction that he does not need. Stubborn, but sexy, Kira manages to crawl under his skin and before long he can't get enough of her. He wonders if he's sleeping with the Chameleon or the woman. Kira loves Ian, but she realizes that once she completes her mission, saving Diego from Ian, the betrayal will kill any feelings he might have for her. Ian is in love with Kira, but knows that she's holding back, maintaining control over her heart. He struggles with his own emotions, but once he's convinced he's won Kira, body and soul, he vows his love to her.

KILLER SECRETS is an exciting, well-written story that captures all the complicated feelings between a man and woman who have made maintaining self-control a life mission. There are several super hot scenes strategically placed among the climactic final chapters including passion, more passion, understanding, loyalty and the culmination of a dangerous mission. It's hot stuff.

SUMMARY

As the illegitimate son of Diego Fuentes, Ian Richards faces danger at every turn. Neither his father nor his fellow Navy SEALs knows which side heโ€™s fighting forโ€”or against. Which is exactly how the game must be played... until Agent Porter enters the picture.

Kira Porter, undercover agent for the Department of Homeland Security, shadows Ian on his journey. She thinks she can see the real man beneath Ianโ€™s bad-boy exteriorโ€ฆbut the ever-elusive Ian keeps her guessing at every turn. Is his goal to protect the Fuentes cartel from French terrorists? Or to do his father in for good? The only thing Kira does know is that her attraction to Ian is a time-bomb waiting to explode. With time running out on the Fuentes mission, she and Ian are drawn ever close to the edge of desireโ€”and even closer into the line of fireโ€ฆ
