Publisher's summary

Love is a game of chance in this romantic suspense novel by New York Times best-selling author and American politician and activist Stacey Abrams, writing under her pen name, Selena Montgomery.

Dr. Raleigh Foster, an operative for a top-secret intelligence organization, knows that her undercover work has its risks. So she doesn't hesitate when asked to infiltrate Scimitar, the terrorist group that has stolen lethal environmental technology. But when she's assigned a partner—brooding, sexy Adam Grayson—to pose as her lover, Raleigh discovers that the most dangerous risk of all...is falling in love.

Adam blames himself for the botched mission that got his best friend killed by Scimitar, and he believes that Raleigh may have contributed to the man's death. But the closer he works with his alluring partner, the more his suspicions turn to trust—and intense desire. Now, as he and Raleigh untangle a twisted web of secrets and lies, the tension mounts between them...until their masquerade as a couple proves too tempting to resist.

Dual novels

I enjoyed the book. There was new vocabulary to learn-you are never to old to learn. The story read as 2 separate stories to me: espionage and romance. They were both greatly detailed however I had a hard time blending them. I am looking forward to her next work. I also read and enjoyed’Stacey’s Extraordinary Words’ and ‘Lead From the Outside ‘ which I immensely enjoyed.

Great Listen

The underlying love story was predictable. I enjoyed the intrigue and trying to figure out who did what before the end.

slightly corny

the narration was well done. I thought the storyline was very corny. The interaction intention between the two main characters were overdone, and the lines were cheesy. I think in in today's age, the scene of consent non-consent sexual interaction is triggering for some, especially with the main character disclosing sexual assault and then the male counterpart having thoughts of forcing himself on her that was triggering. and I don't think it's appropriate in today's day and age.. not impressed.
