Coming off a high-pressure undercover job for his company’s covert Retrievals Department, despite being on the edge of burnout, Jeff is thrown straight into another mission, Operation Janvier. His assignment is to trap illegal metal detectorists who’ll be planting a priceless medieval reliquary in a field, and retrieve it. The detectorists are part of an international ring, and the police of several countries are collaborating in the operation.
To be in the right place at the right time, Jeff seduces Alan, son of the farmer who may or may not be in on the million dollar scam. Should be straightforward, easy, and it is. Until Jeff finds himself falling for Alan. But Alan is trying to shake off an obsessive ex-lover, and doesn’t want commitment, just their no strings, friends with benefits relationship. Events have a way of changing minds.
REVIEW:
Jeff just came off a very stressful undercover job for his company’s covert Retrievals Department, and without a proper break he is thrown into another mission. In this new mission, he needs to focus on Alan, who is the son of a possible suspect. Alan is hurting after splitting from his cheating boyfriend so he agrees to a “friends with benefits” offer from Jeff. Even though Alan knows what he agreed with Jeff is meant to be casual, he can’t help but notice how wonderful Jeff is. He is different from the other men Alan has met in the past. This is where things get tangled for Jeff, because he ends up falling in love with Alan somewhere along the line. He is not focusing on his job and he needs to keep Alan safe.
This story is full of suspense, romance, secrets, sizzling sensuous sex scenes and drama. But that’s not all. There is still more, thanks to interfering family and friends! It’s a very engaging story.
I think Jeff is simply a loveable guy with a big heart, so I felt for him. He was more than a handsome guy and I really connected with him. I can imagine how hard it must be doing the job he does to the point of burning him out. This part felt real to me.
Alan and Jeff’s friends with benefits idea really was endearing because you just know that they’re going to fall in love with each other. Alan is simply perfect for Jeff. Well, I think he would be perfect for a lot of men.
This story flows so beautifully with its suspense, romance and drama that I read it straight through without a break. I loved the dialogue, and how the story flowed. I really enjoyed reading this sweet story. This is my first Chris Quinton story and heaven knows, I shall be adding more of this writer’s books to my “must read” list. You would be hard pressed to go past reading books of this standard. Don’t miss out on this enjoyable experience.
