Ava Malia, covert operative for the FBI Specialized Crime
Unit, is out to infiltrate Dr. H's training for one purpose...
protect him from the bastards at Whitestone who are out to
kill him. Whitestone is after a pair of high tech contact
lenses and have already shown they are willing to kill to
get to them. Everyone believes Dr. H knows the location of
the contacts. Ava will do anything to maintain her cover
and keep H alive, including using seduction to keep him
intrigued and off-balance. It doesn't hurt that the
attraction between them is instantaneous and explosive.
Dr. H seeks out individuals with specialized psychic
abilities. His mission is twofold- train them to control
their abilities and protect them from those who seek to
exploit them. H knows the risks. He and his twin sister
were kidnapped and held by Whitestone for years until he
managed to gain their freedom. He trusts no one, not the
government and not anyone who he can sense has secrets. He
knows Ava is hiding something and shouldn't be trusted. But,
he can't seem to keep his hands of her. Is he putting
himself and his sister in danger by trusting Ava?
ILLICIT INTUITIONS is a gritty, sexy romantic suspense that
you won't be able to put down. Book 3 in Ms. Duncan's
Sensory Ops series, I would recommend reading the series in
order as the plot is a continuation of events that occurred
in the earlier books. ILLICIT INTUITIONS is a highly charged
read radiating sexual tension and danger. Ava and H have
complicated personal histories that draw them together and
pull them apart. They are both intelligent, strong, and
committed to their causes. I thoroughly enjoyed watching
them find their common ground as they dodged bullets and
evaded assassins.
Love could be their greatest liability.
Ava Malia knows three things. She was once a kickass covert
operative. She will eventually adjust to her new team, the
FBI Specialized Crimes Unit. And the only way to finally be
free of her professional past is to solve her first case
and get her hands on a game-changing technology. The only
problem? Success rides on her ability to swallow her
distaste for the persona she must adopt in order to earn
the trust of a mysterious scientist.
Dr. H escaped childhood captivity with three things. His
sister. Complete control of his gift. And an engulfing
distrust of anyone in the government. Adjusting to a life
of freedom hasn’t been easy, but he’s found peace in
solitude. The sexy woman auditing his empathic studies,
though, has a way of getting under his skin that’s both
arousing and disturbing. Plus, his psychic ability warns
him of secrets so deeply buried in her psyche, they’d be
better left alone.
Yet their instant attraction strips away all their
protective barriers, down to the foundation of a new,
fragile trust. And a vulnerability that, when an old enemy
opens fire, could blast away any chance of a future.
