Thriller

In ECHOES AT DAWN, the newest installment of the Special Ops KGI group series we find Rio looking for his teammates lover's sister. Her name is Grace and she has a special ability. She can heal but when she does heal someone she takes their hurt into her. Grace is on the run; an explosion gives her a way to escape from the men who have kidnapped her. Now she is on the run and hunted, it seems everyone wants to use her ability for their own gain. When Rio and his team find Grace they may have found more than they bargained for. Could they have a traitor in their midst?

I loved Rio. He is a strong alpha male and doesn't take any crap from anyone. Yet he has such a soft spot for Grace. He lets her stand on her own and helps her when she needs it. Grace is a strong woman and is more than ready and willing to fight. Watching the two form such a strong relationship made for a great read. I loved watching Rio help build Grace's confidence and prove how much he thinks of her. The two make a great couple. I was glad to see that Grace could not only rely on Rio but also herself. Both Rio and Grace are both willing to make sacrifices for the other. Seeing Grace grow with Rio's help was a nice read. The two make a wonderful couple. Grace brings out the softness in Rio while he brings out the toughness in her. ECHOES AT DAWN is a beautiful romance filled with action and suspense.

Although there were many twists that I did not see coming there seemed to be a bit more talking than action in this book than in the previous ones. I am eagerly awaiting the next book in this series. If you are a Maya Banks fan ECHOES AT DAWN is a must read. From the first time Rio sees Grace he knows she is the one and he is determined to find her and keep her safe. What more could a woman ask for?

SUMMARY

Grace Peterson is desperate, in hiding, and on the run after escaping a shadowy group determined to exploit her extraordinary ability to heal others. Her only lifeline--an unerring telepathic ability she shares with her sister--has been severed, leaving her alone and vulnerable. And time is fast running out...

Enlisted to bring Grace home is Rio, relentless member of the KGI. He's unprepared for his reaction to this wounded, damaged woman, and he's fiercely determined to protect her from those who nearly destroyed her. In Rio, she finds a safe haven, and for the first time...hope. But the mission is far from over. The danger Grace has eluded is fast closing in. And now it's pitching two lovers toward an unfamiliar horizon, with no place left to hide.
