His Mission:
When six canisters of a lethal nerve agent are stolen from a military testing lab, Admiral Jake Robinson must recover the chemicals - by any means necessary. He defies convention and decides to infiltrate the compound where religious fanatics have stored the deadly toxin.

His Partner:
Dr. Zoe Lange is a biological warfare specialist and an expert in espionage. Zoe agrees to assist Jake on the case, and, posing as husband and wife, they manage to gain access to the compound. But Jake fears his instant attraction to Zoe might compromise the mission.

His Crisis:
Their marriage may be a hoax, but Jake's growing feelings for Zoe are anything but make-believe. With each hour he's in Zoe's company, the stakes get higher, the game more real. And the dangers within the compound escalate out of control.

Now everything is on the line....

LOVED IT...but you must read Hawken's Heart first

Again, Suz is amazing in getting you into the head of the characters. The way Suz makes you feel how Jake struggles to let go of Daisy is just incredible. You DO NEED to read "Hawken's Heart" first or you won't understand this book in its depth. I would like to see a bit more of the SEAL action that Suz usually puts in there, but it is great.

Not my favorite by this author

Just started this series and look forward to the stories getting better as always with Ms. B s books.

sweet

beautiful story and I just loved the older man younger women set up, instant favorite

My Fave in series

Admiral Jake Robinson, referenced in earlier books, has his own story. This is definitely my favorite of the Tall, Dark & Deadly series, and grabs me from the opening scene in Vietnam.
Zackman was ok as narrator, but weak on male voices.

Series is getting better.

Although this is no Troubleshooters it is pretty good. By the description I wasn't sure I was going to like it as much as the others and the fact that the hero's wife died in the last book made me a little leery to read this. In fact it is the best one yet in this series. This series is more dated since it was written in 1990's and there has been such a surge of technological advances since. Narrator was pretty good nothing spectacular though.

Good Story and deals with difficult subjects!

This was a good story with a few STOP SAYING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER moments! 😉. The MCs age difference will be a deal killer for some and it is a significant gap. The H is still grieving the death of his wife and has to use a relationship as a cover. What could go wrong?

The younger Seals also have an issue with his age but he continually shows that he is still a force to reckon with.

You will find yourself shouting... Just be honest with each other. The h is awesome and can definitely handle herself.

Awesome

I love Suzanne Brockman books and this one was amazing!!! The narrator was awesome as well!

Solid Womens Fction about Navy Seals and Romance

I may not love love love all of Brockmans fiction but I do always like and enjoy it. This is one of her exceptional novels staring the reoccurring cast of Navy Seals Team Alpha and their lives and loves.

An excellent story arc, well written dialog and love scenes and great dialog gives consistent quality entertainment - even though this series is an older one, the story remains solid.

Allyson Johnson narrates very nicely-she manages to give some steamy love scenes the delicate handling they need and that takes a good narrator- She also does different characters very well.

Well worth my credit.

Good story could use updating

Now that the story is 20 yrs old it could use some updating or just some changes of the details as pagers and mentions of the Vietnam war make the characters older in present day. Otherwise fun to listen to. Could also use a little more back story about Jake’s relationship with Daisy.

Best of the Series.

I was very reluctant to purchase this book. I listened to the sample and just couldn’t figure out how it would tie in… I wish I would have purchased it sooner. It is one of the best in the series. It is a brilliant story. The characters are so likable and imperfect. What a beautiful love story with a fantastic dose of adrenalin.
Fantastic Narration.
