Betty believes her fiance isn’t remotely in love with her. He barely is present so she decides to leave him for good. Just as she is about to cement her decision, her life is altered for the worst. Now she her experienced a bomb explosion, kidnapping and espionage in its truest form.
Thom’s life took a turn for hell when his fiance found out his true job and dumped him. Now both of their lives are on the line because of a traitor in his organisation. The only options are to face the enemy or die. And Thom and no plans of letting anyone kill him or his fiance.
Betty is my role model and I want to be her when I grow up. She was sensible enough to know she was in a bad situation but badass enough to adapt to her circumstances. I would honestly let her ruin my life anyday. WHAT A QUEEN!
Thom was an adorable idiot/ murder daddy. I love the duality of his nature. He could kill in seconds but por man had no idea how to behave in front of his fiance. I was just so pumped to see that Betty was the one who made him all growly and neanderthalish when he is known for being stoic. Such a loveable fool, this one!
This book had my heart racing from chapter 1 and honestly I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. I was absolutely taken aback at about 80% of the book because I DID NOT see that coming. Though I figured out what really happened that was still one hell of a shock.
4 Stars!

Betty Dawsey knows that breaking things off with Thom Lange is for the best. He’s nice, but boring, and their relationship has lost its spark. But steady and predictable Thom, suddenly doesn’t seem so steady and predictable when their condo explodes and she’s kidnapped by a couple of crazies claiming that Thom isn’t who he says he is.
Thom is having a hellish week. Not only is he hunting a double agent, but his fiancé dumped him, and thanks to his undercover life, she’s been kidnapped.
Turns out Thom is Operative Thom and he’s got more than a few secrets to share with Betty if he’s going to keep her alive. With both their lives on the line, their lackluster connection is suddenly replaced by an intense one. But in his line of work, feelings aren’t wanted or desired. Because feelings can be a lethal distraction.
