Mercenary's Perfect Mission

Romance Series

The perfect little town of Cold Plains, Wyoming isn't as it appears. Ex-mercenary Micah Grayson is returning to take down his fraternal twin, Samuel. Micah is recovering after being shot in the back of the head by his brother's henchman and left for dead. Samuel is the "chosen one" for a cult, keeping only the beautiful and healthy residents in his perfect town. Devotees not owning up to Samuel's standard end up missing, and children stolen and illegally adopted out in exchange for monetary gains. Five women are dead and linked back to Cold Plains. June Farrow, along with others, stopped bending to Samuel's dictatorship and created a "safe house" in Hidden Valley amongst the boulders and caves. June devotes her time to helping the non-believers of Cold Plains escape certain death and assists with their deprogramming. Witnessing a murder by the cult leader, Olivia Conner is forced to run for her life with her infant son, leaving behind her 3 year old son. Receiving shelter at the safe house she meets Micah, who looks terrifyingly like Samuel except for his ruggedness and long hair. Being of one mind, everyone's efforts are directed at rescuing the children being held captive and stopping Samuel. Will Olivia and Micah let the attraction between them develop and possibly derail the mission at hand? The very last sentence of this story tells it all and I can hardly wait to read the next book in the Perfect, Wyoming series. MERCENARY'S PERFECT MISSION is very well written and the extensive research into the world of the cult shows throughout the story. Strap yourself in for an exciting and suspenseful trip around the obsession of the cult. Carla Cassidy has made this an extremely hard book to put down. The pages just flew past! A very talented and colorful author!

SUMMARY

Fleeing Samuel Grayson's cult was a risky move for Olivia Conner. So risky that the single mom left one of her children behind. What she'd seen in Cold Plains had destroyed all she believed in one heart-stopping instant. And it could get her killed. Olivia's only option was a safe house she found with the help of ruggedly sexy mercenary Micah Grayson. But once she learned he was Samuel's twin, she dared not trust him…or the way her body reacted to his. Now the two—who'd both sworn off relationships—must embark on a deadly mission: rescue Olivia's son, take down Samuel and safeguard their hearts against love!
