I don’t think I’ve ever read a bad book by this author! How she keeps writing so very many terrific books is beyond me, but I hope she never quits. Jolie and MadDog were a perfect pairing and I loved their story!

A book you can’t put down. I loved everything about Jolie and Mad Dog.

"Mad Dog" Maddox was medically discharged from his SEALs team. Recuperating in Colorado, Mad Dog's survivors guilt and self pity become so bad that he contemplates jumping off a cliff. While standing on the edge, a former commander drives up offering a lead to a possible job. Mad Dog can't imagine what a "banged up" SEAL can do, but is willing to listen. When the call comes in, it's to work with a CIA trained assassin--Jolie Richards. Jolie Richards was raised by her dad in Crazy Mountain, Montana on a ranch. She hasn't been back since her father passed eight years ago. Jolie decides to try and lure her stalker to the ranch and away from possible collateral damage. If the stalker is able to get to her, she doesn't want anyone else to suffer. When Mad Dog arrives to offer additional protection while bringing down a possible sleeper cell, Jolie turns him down. Jolie swears she can defend herself. Mad Dog informs Jolie that he's on assignment and he's not leaving until the threat is eliminated. Although she doesn't want him there, she finds herself comforted with the fact that someone has her back. Wow! There were so many twists and turns. Just when I thought I had it figured out, another "twist" presented itself. The novel was fast-paced, suspenseful, funny, and romantic. I loved that Jolie was strong, but also vulnerable. I liked that Mad Dog was able to work through some of his self-pitying issues while not sounding like a whiner. It was also nice to see that two strong personalities can be strong while opening themselves up to love. I truly enjoyed this novel. I read a gifted copy and all opinions stated are my own.

Received an ARC of this book for a honest review. And I honestly loved it. Caleb “Mad Dog” Maddox is out of the SEALs after an injury where his friend died, and is in the verge of doing the unthinkable - until his friends intervene with a message. He then goes to partner with Jolie - who needs a partner but thinks she can do it all alone. The suspense and action and plain old wanting to see what happens between Caleb & Jolie keeps you turning the pages. It’s was a great read. I truly loved it.

Feeling useless, Caleb Maddox is close to making an irrevocable decision when visitors pull into his driveway. Thus begins a new outlook on life. His assignment is to provide extra protection for CIA agent Jolie Richards as she seeks out a terrorist. Hunting varmints can be dangerous (and they’re not all human)! I love seeing these two loners finding so much in common. Caleb and Jolie really get into their cover story, soon making it a reality. Be prepared for the danger to ramp up quickly! It’s a great story!
