Her bullet killed a fourteen year old girl instead of the head of the Osvaldo Cartel. Wraith can't live with what she's done and decides to leave the SweetBriar Group, an independent black ops group for hire. No one has ever left the group and lived to tell about it, so she fakes her death and becomes Sandra Walsh, Operations Manager for Gradwick Adventure Center in Ridge Creek, North Carolina.
Her boss, and owner of the center, is Casper Grady, a former Marine. Over the past four months she has grown close to Grady, and Grady is falling for her, although neither has acted on their feelings. When her keychain begins flashing red lights one day, she collects her things and runs, but Grady is right on her tail, trying to understand what made Sandra bolt like she did.
Someone has ransacked her apartment; that can only mean that someone knows she is not really dead. But who? Is it her former SBG Delta Squad, the Osvaldo Cartel? Or is it the higher ups at SweetBriar Group who have discovered she is still alive? Whoever it is, Sandra is a dead woman if she can't escape this town now.
P. A. Paul brings us a dynamic tale in EXCHANGE OF FIRE. It is fast-paced and riveting, with surprises at every turn of the plot. Grady and Sandra/Wraith are very strong, realistic characters who both battle demons from their pasts. They are surrounded by an unconventional group of supporting characters who add spice to the story.
Hang on for the ride of your life through the streets of Ridge Creek and bloody shoot-outs everywhere. This sleepy little southern town has come alive! Is anyone really who they say they are? A blend of thriller and some steamy sex will keep you turning pages to see what direction EXCHANGE OF FIRE will head next. This is a great read, and I look forward to reading more titles in Mr. Paul's SBG Novel series.
