Review:
The
Knights are back! This series continues
with the story of a sexy special operator and a sassy CIA agent coming together
in the most unlikely of circumstances and finding love. I have been a fan of this series since the
very beginning and have enjoyed the changes and adjustments to the team and
their lives as they each found love with their true mates. Julie Ann Walker is the kind of amazing
author that takes us deep into the lives of her characters and allowing readers
to experience all new lifestyles, adventures, and dramas that 99% of us could
never imagine truly experiencing in our real lives. Dagan has been a little bit
obsessed with Chelsea since the first time he saw her years ago, but when his
life blew up in his face, leading him to join BKI he never thought he’d see her
again, much less have a chance to have her for himself. Chelsea wants so badly
to prove to Dagan that she is the kind of woman that can handle herself, but he
seems to see her as immature and unable to handle the tasks of her new
job. When they are forced to deal with
one another again they both come to realize that what they thought they knew
about the other is completely inaccurate.
The passion flares between them leaving them both burned and what rises
from the ashes is truly the phoenix of myth.
Dagan has to come to terms with what he thought he needed to do to keep
Chelsea safe and the fact that he was VERY wrong. He was sexy, bumbling, silly,
and sensual all while making Chelsea fall deeper in love, but boy when he screws
up he does it in a BIG way. Chelsea has her own fears and worries about
their shared past, but she is unwilling to risk the chance she has to be happy
with Dagan by leaving him in the dark.
While Chelsea certainly has a few regrets about her decisions she knows
that the only way to build a life with the man she loves is to come clean about
her secrets, even if it means she loses him.
I cried a lot as Dagan and Chelsea dealt with their issues, but I was
reaching for ice a few times to cool me down from the heat between these two as
well. Dagan and Chelsea found a way
thankfully to embrace forgiveness and share their lives and love with one
another. I am reminded again and again
that no matter what these couples might face, they always find a way to
overcome and have their HEA in a big way.
Walker remains one of my favorite authors for intense romantic suspense
and even though I know the series is ending, I know that whatever adventure she
takes us on will keep me a happy reader. As always a magical experience to
enjoy the reading about the lives and loves of these sexy and fascinating
special operators.
