Book Blurb
Matt Dean was born to fight…and kill. A member of a secret black-ops military unit, he and his brothers were genetically engineered by the government to be the perfect soldiers with an expiration date. Now, with time running out, he's gone rogue in a relentless quest for the one person who can save them. His mission leads him to Charmed, Idaho…and to a beautiful woman with eyes like emeralds and a body made for pleasure.
The One Woman He Can't Resist
Laney Jacobs knows the mysterious, handsome stranger is trouble from the moment he walks into her bar, looking for a job. She's spent years running from her own past—the last thing she needs is a romantic entanglement. But Matt's strong arms offer her protection, and his gentle touch promises passion unlike anything she's ever known. As lethal forces surround them, revealing explosive secrets about Matt's past and putting everything—and everyone—he holds dear in danger, can he save them all before time runs out?
Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala
The Gray brothers are trying to save their lives. They each have chips implanted in their spine and these chips will self destruct in six weeks killing them if the code is not keyed in to deactivate it. Matt Dean is looking for the doctor that fled the compound when he and his brothers blew it up. She may be the key to the chips. His destination is Charmed, Idaho. Unfortunately he was jumped in Texas and was stabbed. He makes it to Charmed but finds himself in an alley at two in the morning. His injuries are getting to him and he needs to take care of them.
Laney Jacobs is the owner of a bar in Charmed. She is out yelling for her cat when she spots Matt in the alley. She helps him into the bar and once she sees the blood from his wounds, passes out. Matt takes care of his wounds and decides that being a bouncer in Laney’s bar will be a good cover while he investigates the three women hiding in the small town. One of them has to be the doctor they are looking for.
Matt is surprised to be drawn to Laney. She is the type of woman he stays away from. She is soft and kind like his sister-in-law Josie. He doesn’t understand women like that, but he can’t stay away from Laney.
When a serial killer sets his sights on Laney, Matt is determined to protect her. His time is limited but he won’t leave her in danger. Matt also worries about the Commander finding out where he is. When he finds the doctor that is just what happens. Matt has to protect Laney and get away safely before the Commander is able to capture him and his brother Nathan.
I really like this series. I read Shane’s story first and couldn’t wait for Matt’s story. It did not disappoint. Matt is the ultimate soldier, protective big brother, and alpha male. Yet he is unsure of himself when it comes to love. He has never had it, so he doesn’t trust it.
I thoroughly enjoy the characters that the author developed for this series. The storyline is exciting as they have to race against time to save themselves. This book was full of surprises. The twist with the serial killer truly shocked me. I would never have guessed the direction it went. That is a fact why this book moves to the top of my recommendation list. Matt and Laney’s relationship, plus the brothers themselves, are all icing on the cake. I give it a 5 out of 5.
