Publisher's summary

He’s a gorgeous former Interpol agent.

Tall, dark, and Italian.

He’s way out of her league, but when danger explodes around them, she finds herself on the run with the sexiest man she’s ever met.


CIA analyst Gabbi Hansley has a plan—escape her dysfunctional family, excel at her job, and build a safe, stable life for herself. Boring? Maybe, but she likes boring. When tasked to meet a security contractor and give him an encrypted drive, a quick, simple job goes terribly wrong.

Gabbi didn’t expect her contact to be the hottest man she’s ever seen. Nor was she expecting the bad guys who turn up and spray the restaurant with bullets.

After years of wading through the muck, dismantling Mafia crime syndicates in Italy, former anti-Mafia officer and Interpol agent Matteo “Hades” Mancini likes his job at Sentinel Security. He also knows he has nothing permanent to offer any woman, so he keeps things fun and temporary.

But when his dangerous past rears its head, he finds himself trapped with the tough, no-nonsense Gabbi, and on a second glance, he sees past her sensible exterior to the tempting woman beneath.

Now Gabbi and Matteo are in a race for survival. While they work to track down who’s after them, attraction burns hot and bright. Gabbi knows a man like Matteo won’t be interested in her for long, and she asks him to show her all the things she’s been missing in the bedroom. But the possessive need to keep her safe is growing in Matteo, and soon he has two mission objectives: take down the bad guys, and convince Gabbi Hansley that she’s his.

An action-packed standalone romantic suspense.

I Love this Series!

This is the second book in the Sentinel Security Series, a Romantic Suspense. This series is interconnected with other Anna Hackett's security series (Norcross Security Series and Team 52 Series). Gabbi and Hades/Matteo's story is entertaining, suspenseful, action packed, and passionate. Hades, a former Anti-Mafia officer and Interpol agent, is sexy, handsome, and very protective. Gabbi, a CIA analyst, is beautiful, smart, and determined. The world building is intricate, and captivating. The supporting characters are great. Stella Bloom and Teddy Hamilton did an excellent job with the narration. I enjoyed it. I need more! Looking forward to listening to Striker, the next book in the series.

I Knew It!

I knew this was going to be a good one! I have a special kind of addiction to the name Matteo! Ooh la la! Gabby was such a lucky girl. Danger, excitement and sexy times, this was one to listen to more than once.

Well Done Narration

The narration on this book was well done. It started out with Gabbi, who seemed to be easily taken advantage of by family and co-workers. She came across as being extremely insecure. Based on Gabbi's relationship with her relatives, it was completely understandable.

I did not expect Gabbi to show any level of strength or confidence as quickly as she did. It was like meeting Matteo flipped a switch for Gabbi. She always came across as intelligent. The subsequent elevator scene request was totally unexpected based on Gabbi's previous behavior.

Admittedly, I had to suspend my beliefs for some aspects of this story, but that did not make it a less enjoyable read. The action in this book started early and was rather intense. I enjoyed the action, danger, and suspense. I liked the way Matteo treated Gabbi. He worked to put her insecurities at rest. He recognized her intelligence, and inner strength. He helped to boost her confidence. In return, Gabbi accepted him and his past. She also love and supported him at every turn.

I thought the other members of Sentinel had interesting character traits. I am hoping they will be getting their own books. I know Wolf has an audiobook. That is next on my list. I want Hadley, Killian, Hex, Devyn, and Bram's stories as well.

All in all an enjoyable romantic suspense that I listened to in one sitting. I voluntarily listened to and reviewed this audiobook.

Romance and action, what could be better?

Hades and Gabbi’s story draws you in from the very beginning and gets better as their individual pasts are revealed!! Their first time perceptions of each other transpires into finding their heart’s desire in each other!! The action, suspense, snarky humor and sexy times are wonderfully voiced by Stella Bloom and Teddy Hamilton!!! Keep the stories coming Anna Hackett!! Looking forward to more 😘

Good Book, but One Thing Makes Me Sad

So, I'm a big fan of Anna Hackett. Hades is a good book. I really like the story. The one thing that bothered me was the narration in this one. Normally, I love Teddy and Stella. They do a great job together. But neither one of them is great with accents and Mateo's Italian accent was terrible. I'm really sad they didn't choose somebody else to do Mateo's voice. I'm also really sad that Stella and Teddy are narrating Hadley's story too. Nothing against either one of them, I think they're fantastic narrators. They just don't maintain accents well, and this series is full of fantastic accents.

Ohhh Mateo…. Swoon

Book 2 did not disappoint. Lots of funny banter, angst, adventure, and spice. Love Teddy Hamilton. Can’t wait to jump into book 3.

Never a dull moment

When Gabbi did a favor for a coworker, she never knew it would completely change her life.


The action and drama that ensues from the very start, as well as the undeniable heat between Gabbi and Matteo make for another wonderful read.

I always enjoy Anna's books, and she is one I reread frequently.
