Description: The sexy heroes of Black Ops, Inc., a covert private security team, sizzle in New York Times bestselling author Cindy Gerard's electrifying new romantic suspense series.

THE SULTRY HEAT...

Only two things can compel journalist Jenna McMillan back to Buenos Aires after terrorists held her captive there just months before: a rare interview with a shadowy billionaire and the memory of the dark and dangerous man who saved her...

HIDES THE DEADLIEST THREATS...

Bad guys, bombs, and bullets are Gabriel Jones's way of life. But he'll never forget the brash redhead he rescued not so long ago...or the passionate kiss they shared before he sent her packing....

AND EXPOSES THE DEEPEST DESIRES.

Now, forced together by a bombing at the National Congress, Jenna and Gabe confront the urgent longings that simmer between them. But this surprise meeting is no coincidence. A ruthless enemy stalks them with deadly precision. The question is...if they make it out alive, will Gabe turn his back on Jenna...again?

My Thoughts: This romantic suspense title has a determined reporter trying to recover from the trauma of being kidnapped and a sexy wounded warrior who isn't going to risk his heart again. 

Jenna McMillan was a successful reporter who wasn't afraid to do anything to get the story. But after being kidnapped and held captive she lost her nerve. Now she has a chance to reclaim her career when she is invited to Buenos Aires to interview a billionaire who has some shady connections.

Gabriel Jones works for Black Ops, Inc. after a successful stint as a military officer and CIA agent. He is great with bad guys, guns, and bombs but not so great at risking his heart even though he hasn't been able to forget Jenna since he rescued her. He has lost the woman he loves to villains who kidnapped and tortured her and doesn't want Jenna to have any contact with his world. 

However, there is a villain working behind the scenes who wants his revenge on both Jenna and Gabriel and is willing to leave a trail of bodies behind as long as two of them are Jenna and Gabe. 

This was an exciting audiobook filled with action and danger. It was also emotionally intense as Jenna and Gabe try to work out their relationship. Fans of romantic suspense will enjoy this story,
