Pretending she’s defecting, Elena heads to the Sokolov compound, escorted by the most maddening and distracting man she’s ever met. It’s almost as if Roman Garinovich was created just to get under her skin. Still, Elena won’t let Roman stop her from completing her deadly task. There’s just one hitch: Alexandra really loves Viktor, and killing him will crush her. Torn between her loyalty to her father and her best friend, Elena continues to plot, trying to ignore the growing instinct telling her to spare Viktor’s life—and also working to ignore her growing attraction to Roman.
Roman doesn’t believe a word that comes out of Elena’s mouth, however, and he’s not about to let his guard down around her. Deep in his gut, he knows something’s not right about her story… but that doesn’t stop him from acting on his unwelcome attraction to her. Even as he lets Elena into his heart, though, he knows she’s not all that she seems. When he discovers her true reason for being in the Sokolov compound, he’ll have to choose between the woman he loves and his deep loyalty to his friend.
As danger swirls around Elena and Roman, the question becomes whether they can learn to trust not only each other, but what’s in their hearts.
PAT'S REVIEW
| The second book in the new series, and now Elena Popov, Alexander's best friend. Now Elena’s father wants her to pretend that she is defecting in order to get close to Viktor her best friend’s husband and enemy of Elena’s father. Roman Garinovich has thought that Elena is a pain since the first day he met her. Now being asked to go get her from Russia and bring her back to Boston he knows she is. He also knows that when she is asleep with her mouth closed she is a gorgeous woman, even when she is talking back to him she is gorgeous as well. After she helps him with a problem with the plane during the flight, you would think he would begin to trust her. He would like to but when he sees someone he knows from the Russian Army he must tell her he knows something about her father and a secret he has kept from her for years. This secret not only bounds her with Roman but ends all contact she has from her father. A very good story after a good first book. I really liked the two main characters. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave this book 5 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com |
