BLURB:
Recently married ATF special agents Thayne Wolfe and Jarrett Evans are ready for some normalcy to return to their work in the ATF the way it has at home. They’ve just moved into their new house and neither of them are prepared for their next assignment, being tasked out to the FBI along with the rest of their team. They should know that when a desperate threat to national security is identified, the situation calls for all hands on deck.
FBI special agent Mac McCallahan and his partner, Lincoln Snow, have a new boss and are handed a dangerous case involving rogue military elites, as strong as an army. Someone has plans to take over control of the world’s supply of palladium, crippling the US economy. On top of all that, two of the men on their combined teams admit an attraction to each other which complicates the entire mission.
This time around, ATF Special Agent Nicodemo Devecchio and FBI Special Agent Mac McCallahan are sent in undercover while Thayne and Jarrett are assigned to monitor things from the SCIF… as if Jarrett could easily just sit still and watch… as if. In a monumental undertaking, US security forces here and abroad, have one goal in mind—stopping an enemy intent on taking down their government any way they can.
Join Jarrett, Thayne, and all their friends in the final installment of the Death and Destruction series *Includes an exciting excerpt from “Thin Blue” (Thin Blue Line series Book 1) coming Summer 2018*
REVIEW:
I so did not want to finish this book because I never wanted this series to end!
Thayne and Jarrett are back from their honeymoon, back at work and settled into their new home. All is pretty quiet until they, their fellow agents and their friends at the FBI are all called in on a case that is a little to close to home for Jarrett. Some mercenaries have taken things a little to far. They seem like they are working in conjunction with the US government as civilian contractors but it looks like they might have gotten involved with some pretty unscrupulous people in the Far East. Because Jarrett has worked with some of the operatives before, when he was a mercenary for hire, he and Thayne are in the background, not a place these two men are used to, and Mac and Nico have to go in undercover.
I am going to say right up front…I hope that this isn’t truly the end because I don’t think it is. Way too much was brought up in the epilogue for me to feel that it is truly over! I think too many new doors were left wide open and I need closure. Not only am I so connected with Thayne and Jarrett, but now Lincoln and Sarah and Mac and Nico too.
I do like that in these last couple books we got into the heads of more of the characters and it made each of them so much more real. I feel like I know and really like Lincoln, Sarah, Mac and Nico and are connected to them now too. But that is where the problem lies for me. I know and like these people and now want them to get their HEA’s. I feel like we have got the HFN’s but I need it to be all wrapped up with a bright shiny ribbon. But knowing how Patty treats my boys it will probably be battered, bloody and bruised.
I can’t tell you how much I loved this entire series. It was deep and personal. How these two men learned to like, trust, then lean on the other before falling head over heals in love was truly mesmerizing and wonderful. I had thought I had heard that there was going to be a spin-off series and I hope that’s true and that it is Mac and Nico’s so we can still see our boys grow old together. Fabulous series and a must read in my opinion!
