Now onto my review:

I want to start off by saying that I had the James Bond theme song running through my head nonstop while I was reading this book. And no, I am not joking. I also couldn’t figure out if Tom, in my every wild imagination looked like

Sean Connery

or

Daniel Craig:

See my dilemma….lol. Seeing that the book is a spy novel, it makes sense that my mind would drift to, what I consider, two of the best looking James Bonds.

I thought Tom was a tool in the beginning of the book. He cheated on his partner, Victoria, basically their whole relationship. The night he decided to end it with his current girlfriend, Natasha, and recommit to Victoria was the night that he got into a horrific car crash. A car crash that involved Natasha….who was chasing him down to give him his cell phone and that set off a huge chain reaction of events that would change his life forever.

As the book goes on, we learn that Tom is pivotal in finding and stopping an embezzlement as an international fraud investigator….which puts him in the spotlight of some unsavory people. Very unsavory with names like The Leopard and Cerberus.

The action in this book was unbelievable. Tom is put into situations that would break most people (not going to giveaway anything…read the book) and to be honest, I wasn’t surprised when he decided what he decided. It only made sense and oh boy, was it bloody!!!

The ending of this book was exactly what I thought it was going to be and I liked it. It also set up the next book perfectly.

How many stars will I give Black Ops Zulu: Pivotal Velocity? 4

Why? While I thought this was a great book, full of action, Tom’s horndog ways and poor decision-making skills killed his character for him. The story, itself, was great and I loved it. Just didn’t like Tom….lol.

Will I reread? Yes

Will I recommend to family and friends? Yes

Age range: Adult

Why? Sex and violence. Plus one very disturbing scene where Tom cuts the heads off of two guys who were holding his family hostage.
