ARC Review: Desperate Deeds [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished reading "Desperate Deeds" the 3rd book in her A-Tac series by Dee Davis.

Product Description


As the demolitions expert for A-Tac, a black-ops CIA unit masquerading as Ivy League faculty, Tyler Hanson has two great loves: literature and explosives. She lives by the motto "Duty First" and doesn't have time for personal attachments . . . until a steamy one-night stand turns into a professional partnership.

BURNED BY BETRAYAL

When Tyler meets Owen Wakefield, a handsome British operative, she seduces him with no intention of ever seeing him again. But then the sexy Brit is brought into A-Tac, and despite Tyler's efforts to keep her distance, she finds herself falling for him. Trusting him.

Owen seems too good to be true - and he is. He's hiding his true motives and identity, and no matter how he feels about Tyler, he can't keep her secrets. One of A-Tac's members has turned traitor and helped terrorists to hijack a shipment of nuclear weapons. As witnesses start dying and evidence starts disappearing, Owen and Tyler must race to find the mole - and prevent a final, cataclysmic act of destruction.

My Review:

I really enjoy this series and each book gets better and better!

I really admire Tyler because she's having such bad luck in this book but it only makes her stronger (people trying to kill her and her family and bad things are happening to her).

I loved Owen because he's determined to protect Tyler, he's fair and doesn't let anyone else sway his decision, he's British (loves his tea - me too).

4/5

Thanks Anna from Hachette Book for sending me this book to review, greatly appreciated!

I love her writing. I read Dark Deception and now I'm waiting to read the second book about Drake.
I loved Nash and Annie's story.
