To anyone watching Navy SEAL Ian Dunn has gone rogue,
turning his talents to the life of jewel heist and con
jobs. But the truth is that the former special ops warrior
is still fighting for good as he leads a small band of
freelance operatives into high-stakes unofficial business.
He is the perfect choice when a heavily guarded embassy
must be breached to rescue children kidnapped by their
father who is willing to turn them into casualties. At
first he says no to this DO OR DIE situation.
Phoebe Kruger, his new attorney, is determined to see the
children set free, so she makes it so no is not an option.
And also whether he likes it or not she plans to go with
him. She does have skills but it's the growing awareness
between them they must fight as they gear up for a fight.
As they face cold-blooded adversaries, a vindictive mob
boss who has it in for Ian and a psychopath who loves to
murder as much as he loves his money they find each other
willing to do whatever must be done to survive and protect
the innocent.
DO OR DIE is action packed multiple subplot suspense that
will please any who love Suzanne Brockmann's SEAL books.
Ian and Phoebe slowly meld together as the pages turn until
the sizzle becomes more than they can ignore. Ms. Brockmann
is a great storyteller but in this book I think she tried
to tell just too many stories. There was almost too much
going on that I had to reread a couple of pages just to
make sure I knew what I had read. Don't get me wrong the
action is great, the intensity will have you biting your
nails and the sex ... steaming hot, I just felt that she
needed to knock a few people out of the book so we could
better know the main characters. This is the first of her
Reluctant Hero series, so hopefully now that she has
all
the players in place the next one will not be quite so
chaotic. I love her action packed writing style and will
continue to read what she sets in print.
Suzanne Brockmann’s seamless blend of heroic military action
and intense passion inspired USA Today to call her “a
superstar of romantic suspense”—and for years her
award-winning Troubleshooters books have been must-reads for
fans of sizzling stories of action and adventure. Now the
New York Times bestselling author shoots to thrill
again with Do or Die, an electrifying new novel that
is certain to win Brockmann new readers and delight
devotees.
Navy SEAL Ian Dunn went rogue in a big way when he turned
his talents to a lawless life of jewel heists and con jobs.
Or so the world has been led to believe. In reality, the
former Special Ops warrior is still fighting for good,
leading a small band of freelance covert operatives who take
care of high-stakes business in highly unofficial ways. That
makes Ian the hands-down choice when the U.S. government
must breach a heavily guarded embassy and rescue a pair of
children kidnapped by their own father, a sinister foreign
national willing to turn his kids into casualties.
Shockingly, Ian passes on the mission for reasons he will
not—or cannot—reveal.
But saying no is not an option. Especially not for Phoebe
Kruger, Ian’s beautiful and unexpectedly brash new attorney.
Determined to see the abducted children set free,
Phoebe not only gets Ian on board but insists on riding
shotgun on his Mission: Impossible–style operation, whether
he likes it or not.
Though Phoebe has a valuable knack for getting out of tight
spots, there’s no denying the intensely intimate feelings
growing between Ian and Phoebe as the team gears up for
combat. But these are feelings they both must fight to
control as they face an array of cold-blooded adversaries,
including a vindictive mob boss who’s got Ian at the top of
his hit list and a wealthy psychopath who loves murder as
much as he loves money. As they dodge death squads and play
lethal games of deception, Ian and Phoebe will do whatever
it takes to save the innocent and vanquish the guilty
...or die trying.
