Courage is feeling the fear...then pouring on the throttle. Abandoned or betrayed by everyone she ever loved, Sera Manning's life spiraled out of control until a near-death experience left her with a mission. Now a DEA agent, her sole focus--and her first undercover assignment--is to take down a drug cartel that's manufacturing seductive, deadly angel sugar. To do it, she needs access to Operation Black Abyss to establish a connection between the cartel and the Death Angels outlaw motorcycle gang. Which means she must pose as a couple with another agent who's already deep undercover. ATF agent Ryan Thomas desperately needs a female agent to maintain his cover in the gang, but the last thing he wants is a rookie agent jeopardizing his op. Especially one who is a sexy reminder why it's a bad idea to get involved while on a case. Living together, surrounded by crime, pretending their sizzling sexual tension is just for show is getting harder by the day. But as the mission comes to a head, the two fiercely independent warriors must decide which fear is worse. Losing their quarry...or losing each other. Warning: Features a badass biker hero and kickass heroine who go at it undercover--and under the covers. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

DEA agent Sera Manning has a personnel interest in bringing down a drug cartel responsible for selling a new seductive drug known as angel sugar. The perfect opportunity arises to go undercover with the motorcycle gang, the Death Angels, and she wants in. What she didn't count on was having to pose as the girlfriend of the wickedly sexy ATF agent, Ryan Thomas aka Tommy, to help him make his cover even more convincing.
Ryan Thomas needs a female agent to pose as his girlfriend. When he's paired with a rookie agent, he's more than displeased – not only could her inexperience blow the whole operation, but it could also get them all killed. Their chemistry burns white hot, and that's enough to cement their place with the DAs, however it doesn't take long before the lines between reality and make-believe begin to blur. Though neither of them wanted it to happen, they can't deny their feelings for each other. When the time comes to wrap up the case, it's possible that everything they've shared will come to a deadly end.
Can we just take a moment to enjoy the sexy cover!? This was my first book by this author and I really liked it! I think this was a first for me – an alpha male AND an alpha female as the main characters, and what a pair they made! Sera's unpleasant and difficult childhood molded her into the tough-as-nails woman. She has no family or friends, just her job to which she dedicates the majority of her time and her life. Shes a loner, and she prefers to keep it that way. When she meets Ryan, she's troubled by her attraction towards him, but when she realizes that he's the agent who could get her closer to achieving her goal, she decides to play along.
Ryan was the perfect counterpart to Sera in every way. Where she's impulsive, almost to the point of being reckless, he prefers to be cautious and not go into a situation half-cocked. He's using to being in charge and telling others what to do. Sera doesn't like being told what to do , she hates being underestimated and patience isn't one of her virtues. Naturally those two butt heads all the time! Of course Ryan enjoys getting her riled up. And what do you know ... they both get turned on by it. The sexual tension was thicker than London fog!
There was hardly ever a dull moment in this story. Perhaps the only thing that bothered me a little was Sera's carelessness. DAs were known for keeping their women on a tight leash, either through intimidation or via drugs. Now, picture Sera acting docile. I was never sure whether she's play by the rules or whether she'd "go rouge" at the first opportunity. I loved that bit of uncertainty and tension. The author briefly touched on an interesting facet of undercover work – the possibility of going so far under that you one nearly forgets their true identity. And how far is one willing to go for the sake of it all? That just added another interesting layer to the drama. There was a very memorable scene dealing with the passing of Ryan's mother, and the contrasting reactions he received from this work colleagues and the members of the gang. The ending seemed a little corny, but it did tie in with Sera's past and it just fit the story.
I noticed only one minor discrepancy, but on the whole I highly recommend this story if you like a scorching hot romance involving federal agents and strong-willed characters. I'll definitely read more from this author in the future.
