Reviews

Security Specialists International is a private security agency which takes on government contracts and private jobs no one else wants. The series revolves around the security agency contracts and the personnel employed. Although each book is standalone to a certain extent (as in there is a heroine, hero and a happily ever after to each one) there is an overarching plot through the series focusing on a DOD traitor who has been compromising intel and profiting off of information leaks.

That's one of the main things I really love about this series. Even though there's romance and sex and a ton of humour- there's a lot of plot and while each book can be read standalone - reading them in order lets the plot build into something special. Actually it's kind of like Laura Kaye's Hard Ink series insofar as the plot running through each book. I like the whole jigsaw puzzle being put together as each book is released.

The second book in the series focuses on Keely's childhood friend, Calista Meyers - a supermodel who attracts the attention of a drug cartel while in Colombia on her final modelling job. Keely sends Risto Smith to extract Calista from Colombia. I loved Calista. She's not as badass as Keely but she's still pretty badass. She knows how to keep cool, calm and collected while running from danger. Their relationship develops pretty fast but I really enjoyed it. There's lots of plot and some funny one liners and fluffy romance. Risto was a bit of an idiot but he eventually got with the program. I loved Conn, I hope he gets a book. Overall very enjoyable. Great book. 4 stars.
