Dìleas Security Agency, Book 1

De: C.S. Smith

Narrado por: Cole Robert Eubanks

He’s hostage to his past. She has a secret that could destroy him.

After a disastrous mission in Afghanistan ends his military career, former British SAS captain Lachlan Mackay is a man running on vengeance and guilt. As head of global security for an American company, he’s cold, controlled, untouchable. Until his new colleague, a petite redhead with wide hazel eyes, knocks him off-kilter and threatens to pierce his protective armor.

Sophia Russo thought she’d landed her dream job until she’s asked to spy on the man she’s secretly nicknamed the “Hot Scot.” Lachlan is everything she’s been warned about, and everything her guarded heart wants. But she’s supposed to betray him, not fall for him.

When Sophia uncovers evidence that someone inside the company is trafficking weapons to an Afghan warlord, she becomes a target—and the only one who can help Lachlan prove he’s not the traitor.

With enemies closing in and passion igniting between them, trust becomes a dangerous game. Lachlan must face the past he’s tried to forget to protect the one woman who could shatter his walls…or be the end of him.

Falling in love may be the most dangerous risk of all.

Just think Jamie Fraiser, but in a suit! yes, plz

OMG! I finally got to this one on my TBR, and now I’m already loading up the rest of the series on audiobook. For starters, I am a complete sucker for Scottish men with that brogue accent, and Lachlan is basically Jamie Fraser in a suit, armed with a Sig Sauer and a whole arsenal of hidden weapons on his 6’4” frame. Good golly, what a hero!

This story had it all: fantastic pacing, non-stop action, heart-pounding suspense, and a romance that kept me hooked from start to finish. I’m beyond excited that I’ll be meeting this author at a book convention later this year, and after this book, I am officially stoked!

And can we talk about the narration? Eubanks absolutely nailed it. His accents for every character were on point- from the brooding Scottish Lachlan, to his Texan best friend Nathan Long, to British Intelligence officer Ryder Montague. Each voice was distinct, immersive, and completely spot-on.

Bottom line: just click Buy It Now. This book is amazing, and I can’t wait for more!

Amazing book, Audio is even better!

If you enjoy a military overprotective alpha-hole who saves her from nightmares in his past... Look no further. This book has an amazing storyline, with some spice on the side.. Cole brings this story to life with his narration. Absolutely reccomend!!!
