Publisher's summary

It was supposed to be paradise....

Ivy MacLeod has the perfect opportunity to test her advanced remote sensing technology: mapping a World War II battle site in the islands of Palau. The project is more than an all-expenses-paid trip to paradise. It's also an opportunity to distance her reputation from her traitorous ex-husband.

But foreign intelligence agencies will kill to possess her invention, and paradise turns deadly when her ex-husband's vicious allies attack. In desperation, she turns to Air Force pilot Jack Keaton. But is he the bigger threat? Jack might be protecting her as he claims...or he could be a foreign agent. Her compass is skewed by his magnetic pull and further thrown off when she learns her own government has betrayed her.

Stranded on a tropical island with a man whose motives remain a mystery, Ivy must decide who is the spy, who is the protector, and who is the ultimate villain. She longs to trust the man who rescued her, but she's risking more than her heart. Choose right, and she saves her country's secrets - and her life. Choose wrong - and she risks nothing short of all-out war.

Fantastic Series

I'm solid as a Rachel Grant fan after this series! I was a captive audience throughout each novel in the series but admit I loved Dimitri and Ivy in this book. Ms Grant wove a wonderful, action filled plot and filled it with memorable characters.

Unexpectedly finding love in the midst of danger

Phew. This hot suspenseful romance is filled with smart, funny and wildly appealing characters and an edge of your seat story. All of the unexpected plot twists made for a suspenseful ride trying to guess what the bad guys were doing and what was going to happen next. This author does a phenomenal job of weaving together exhilarating action, palpable tension, political intrigue, plot twists, mystery, and red-hot romance. Ivy is a GIS mapping expert who developed CAM, a device that will perfectly map a location from ground level even underwater. She is in Palau doing such mapping of a WWII battle. She is also the ex-wife of Patrick Hill, an American awaiting trial for espionage. Jack/Dimitri is a deep cover Russian who we met in Cold Evidence. He tried to get out of the spy game but is pulled back in and now needs Ivy’s help to rescue his sister and nephew. When Ivy is attacked by masked men at a party, Dimitri rescues her and then abducts her after a steamy night to help him find something. Ivy is still wildly attracted to Dimitri but does not trust him. Thus begins a roller coaster ride of secrets, danger, intrigue, plot twists, and tropical locations as Ivy and Dimitri try to find the prize while also staying a step ahead of the other bad guys. The story included engaging dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and a captivating storyline. The deep emotions are intense in this one - phew - I was really feeling them with Dimitri’s character. This author is so good at getting me to fall in love with someone who should be a “bad” guy. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series.

Nicol Zanzarella did a wonderful job narrating the stories and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly

Poison Evidence

Such a great addition to this series. I also liked the check in of.previous couples. In this book, Ivy is using her invention to map out a WW2 battle that is buried underwater using special technologysje invented. Dimitri is a spy sent to use her technology to find a downed Russian AAUV. Other spies are out to capture her and the technology. Bit with bodily harm. Theu end up protecting each other as everything and everyone they believed in falls apart. Exciting and steamy. T hi is nbn is a great read.

Suspenseful romance

Wow what a story. The amount of research this author had to do blows my mind. She was very thorough in it. This story was hot. If you were lucky to get the narration it was excellent.

A really wonderful listen.

This was an exciting thrilling read that bring two people together with one thinking she is using her baby CAM to mapping the area with a complex computerized mapping system similar to Radar, but uses lasers. The other is trying to save his sister and her son. Jack does everything he can to make sure he and Ivy get together. He plans to use her new system to find what the Russian lost in return freeing his family. Ivy not having a clue that her government set her up to use her machine without telling her what she was really doing is left with few people to trust. Will she decide to go with the enemy or stay true to her country?

It doesn’t take Ivy long before she is pulled in to Jack web getting down right and personal. What will she due when she finds out who and what he really is? It doesn’t take long before things get very complicate in more ways than one. The triangle gets even more complicated when others step in to take over trying to get their hands on Ivy and CAM leaving her with only one person she can trust or can she?


I thought the narrator did a wonderful job, she really bought out the characters and story. There are no background noise, no volume changes, if any breaks were taken I could not tell. I really enjoyed the emotion she really brought the story to life. Her character voices were right on the money, you always knew who was talking and what they were feeling. She really held my interest giving me an audio that came to life in my mind. I totally enjoyed this audio and look forward to listening to more of her work.


Ivy was a great character a little too naive she did handle all that came her way the best she could. I most likely would have done the same in her shoes. I really liked how she took the bull by the horn doing what she felt was best. She has no reason to trust either side each wants something from her but not willing to give much away. I really liked Jack after he got her out to sea coming clean and letting the chips fall where they way I had to really respect him and his reasoning. He is strong, caring and will do anything for his family.

The author is holding her cards close not giving out many clues to the outcome and gives you some major twists along the way. The ending will totally blow you way I never saw that coming. I really liked the characters and how this played out giving a very entertaining read. I thought this was well written with lots of passion, chemistry, honor, pain, action and following your heart even when you might think that is wrong. The author gives you a hot read with action as the bad guy are added to the game of hide and seek along with thrills that will get your heart beating fast. The ending just blows me out of the water leaving me with my mouth open. I hope you will pick this up and give it a read.

Poor plotting

I’m not sure why this story garnered so many positive reviews. The romance is mainly erotica, while the suspense serves primarily as a back drop for getting the MCs together (share a bed, swim naked etc.) and be intimate (which is described in graphic details numerous times).

The plot is quite thin. The author wants the reader to buy into the following scenario: the US government allows the heroine, an employee of the Navy, to take her top secret invention (which is supposed to be the latest and greatest in surveillance and mapping technology) to a distant country out in the open for a test run without any kind of assistance or a security detail, when everyone on the globe is aware of her story (thanks to a news article detailing her personal life: her ex husband who is an arms dealer and traitor, her invention and current location). This setup is intended to send the heroine straight into the hero’s arms when bad guys appear. So said hero (who is a spy/assassin – what does that say about heroine’s judgment) whisks her away to the open sea without her the wiser (since she is so contented after a night of sex). Even after she discovers what he has done, she still can’t control her libido – her rationale is that she wants to see if she can use her sexuality to gain the upper hand (joke! – another excuse to put in more dirty talk/thoughts/acts). Basically the whole story is like that.

There’s a fair amount of filler talk about superpowers and triangles and circles (supposed to highlight heroine’s geekiness) which I can do without. The author also mistakes agencies that would fund the work described in the book – it would the NSF or the DOD, not the NIH. Finally, I just can’t quite imagine a hunk with a broad nose and receding hairline (yes, I am superficial).

On the other hand, the narrator is quite good.
