Thoughts:
I had a lot of fun with this story! Steamy, fast-paced with
a lot of action and a bit of mystery.
Both Isabel and Roman were immersed in their job, and so
each didn’t spend much time looking for love. Being thrown together when a band
of thieves steal a deadly virus from Isabel’s lab, they feel an instant attraction.
Roman was kind of a broody jerk when they first meet, but Isabel is a feisty
character giving as good as she got and so there was a bit of sparring. However,
they get physical pretty quick, which I think fit well with the intense circumstances
they were in. Each have some past baggage to get through to find their HEA.
Roman stems from the event that took his leg in an operation gone wrong, and
Isabel’s from a past relationship that ended in tragedy.
Their personal issues must take a backseat as they work to retrieve
the dangerous virus which is now in the hands of a deranged group bent on
making a deadly statement. All the danger and action kept me glued to the pages
to see how it all turned out!
Fatal Deception is the third book in the Steele Ops series, and
the first two couples feature as characters in play in this installment. So it would’ve been nice to have read from the
start for that reason, but I didn’t feel like I missed important information by
reading Fatal Deception first.
