Dirty Dare: The Rescue

Dirty Dare: The Rescue (Part 1, spin-off to the Dirty/Dare Me series) is the newest release from Julie Leto. From the author’s website.~

OVERVIEW

As a former CIA operative, Sean Devlin has been trained to resist both capture and coercion, but he’s been out of the spy game a long time. When he’s shanghaied to a grimy underground warehouse and forced to endure weeks of relentless torture, he isn’t sure he’ll survive. His captors want the location of his ex-lover, but he refuses to give her up. How can he when the woman is dead–just like he’ll be if he doesn’t figure out a way to
 escape.

Security specialist, Brynn Blake, has no choice but retrieve Sean and spirit him away to a fortified safe house off the coast of Spain. Because Brynn has an unpaid debt to some very important people she has no choice but to risk her and her career for Sean, a man she’s never met. As he recovers from his injuries, she learns that there is more to the man than meets the eye. Not only is he hot, sexy and intriguing, but he possesses knowledge that could destroy her–knowledge he doesn’t even realize he has.

Sean and Brynn find themselves trapped by both desire and the spymasters calling the shots. But when the game takes an expected turn, Brynn is forced to make a choice: trust Sean or pay the ultimate price.

I’m a huge fan of Julie Leto and am so excited she has done a spine-off series with both the Dirty and Dare Me series of characters. Loved that we got to not only see Marisela, but learned more about her boss, Brynn in this book. Brynn is way more kick-ass than I thought she had the ability to be. Loved how protective she was of Sean from the very beginning, and thought their chemistry was strong from the very beginning. I love the suspense of this story as well as the budding romance between Brynn and Sean. While there is really only one true love scene in this book, I loved that it totally lasted over multiple chapters.

 I’m already counting down the days until the next installment in this series. Dirty Dare: The Reveal is currently slated for release on July 1, 2013. For more information about the spin-off series or other books from Julie Leto, check out her website.
