Publisher's summary

Javier Lopez has a secret—his father is a contract killer.

Despite doing everything in his power to overcome the association with his father, his job at the NSA was shrouded by suspicious looks and doubt. When his mother is killed, he flees the US and takes a job with Eidolon, working as the communications lifeline for the team. For the first time, he’s found a purpose and a brotherhood that fills the empty corners of his life. Yet, he still yearns to uncover the truth about his mother’s death, and his father’s part in it.

As Eidolon finishes up the tour for the Her Majesty the Queen and secrets are revealed, he finds himself face to face with the woman who may hold the answers. From the second he sets eyes on Adeline Lasson, Lopez feels a deep connection to the beauty. As she fights to recover from the coma that almost took her life and regain her strength, the team hunt for the location of her missing daughter, believed to have been kidnapped by Cartel leader Juan Ravelino. When he and Adeline grow closer, he realises that he can’t keep lying about his past because suddenly, she’s become the only future he wants.

Adeline left the life of espionage and subterfuge behind and started a new life for herself and her daughter, away from the dangers that hunted her but that all changed when her child was taken. Clawing her way back from near death, she leans on Javier Lopez. Her attraction for the sexy computer expert grows with each smile and heated look. Addie knows she needs to concentrate on her child but the pull between them is too strong to ignore. When the tension spikes, they find themselves locked in a battle between the past and the future.

They will need to work together to shed the shackles of the past and win the beauty that could be a life together, but first, they have a choice to make—face the truth together or continue living a lie apart.

Enjoyable Story and Narration

I listened to the audiobook of Lopez. One way I judge good narration is when I can lose myself in the story and I am not overly aware of the narrator being male or female. By that I mean that I am not listening to a narrator struggling to read the parts of the other gender.

I completely lost myself in Lopez and Addie's story. Addie needed to heal on both a physical and emotional level . Lopez was right by her side as she did it.

There were a couple of unexpected twists toward the end. There was also the introduction of the Shadow group. This book had danger, suspense, mystery, and a nice amount of heat. A 4.5 listen.

I voluntarily listened to and reviewed this audiobook.

Lopez and his jaw dropping story

I love this entire series! Maddie nailed this entire series. The books that Christopher Harbour does in this is perfect! He keeps you so captivated! When he tells Lopez story the emotions are raw. Lopez and Ady have both been put through hell. I think they are both scared to fall “in love”. The shocking news that Ady and her sister have about Lopez past shook me once all the pieces came together. Watching these brothers in arms do anything and everything for their family warms my heart all over. If you love action,romance and a little mystery thrown in the mix you will love this entire series. I am sad it’s coming to end but can’t wait to see what Maddie will come up with next!

Lopez

I don’t recommend listening to this without the rest of the series. This is a continuation of an ongoing story and you’ll need some back story or you’ll be lost. This story seemed to love a lost faster than some of the previous ones and it was just as engaging. It’s always fun to hear about hot alpha men finding the One that makes them fall hard. Will look out for more in the series.

5 stars

I loved Lopez and Adeline's story! Their connection and chemistry were excellent. Great story with action and twists as this series is known for. I listened straight through. But, best not as a standalone.

Loved the Prologue!!! - Can't wait to meet this team!!

The narrator - Christopher Harbour - did an amazing job! Loved his performance.

Hot and fierce

I absolutely love this series. The women are fierce and strong and every bit as alpha as the men that love them. Heat factor is very high. So be warned. :)

exciting

The men of Eidelon, intrigue, mystery, always on the alert and on call facing danger. Family first is theIr motto. these alpha males Know danger, and find romance along the way.
Lopez never thought he would find love until he saw Addison.His protective nature brings him close to her. Their relationship is explosive, sexy steamy.
To save the one she loves, it can put the whole team in imminent danger.
This story is exciting, it kept me on the edge of my seat.
Christopher Harbour narration is phenomenal. He tells this story with so much emotion. thank you for a great listen.

Secrets from the past revealed!

The narrator did a great job! Javier and Adeline have a great love story. They have a lot to work through and overcome but this suspenseful HEA is a great addition to the series. I liked the action and twist as well as the team involvement.

Javier & Addie!

Maddie Wade pens another twisting and turning episode of the Eidolon Black Ops! This one is so good as we get to spend a lot of time not only with our main characters Addie and Javier, but Addie's sister Astrid and Jack! Addie is in a coma, and her daughter has been kidnapped. Javier Lopez has been by her side in hopes of her waking up soon. She may hold some answers he is searching for regarding his own parents. But when she does come to, something he doesn't plan for happens. A soul biting attraction that will not let him go draws him to the brilliant woman. Addie is focused on the saving of her daughter, but she too is realizing just what she wants in her life. Will the two find what they are looking for and be able to mesh it into a happily ever after? I loved these two. the chemistry is strong, but the friendship they forge is even stronger. It's full of secrets and surprises which make it always a fun journey! It's a fun listen and great addition to this series.

Christopher Harbour gives us a fabulous narration bringing all the characters to life. He is able to go from Addie to Javier, to Peyton, a child to Mia an older woman! It's always a pleasure to enjoy a narrator with a great range and he brings them all to life. Give this one a listen!

emotional journey

This couple seemed to burrow into my heart faster than the others. Maybe it was their backstories or the innocent child involved as a pawn. I loved the special surprise for Javier , because he deserved it and some answers. Thete are still loose ends that will definitely come back to haunt and terrorize this wonderful core group of warriors for freedom. I'm truly loving this series. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

I loved It

I love this series because of the voiceless of the team and their overall ones valued as family. This is Javier and Adeline's story. Javier stayed by her side while she recuperated in hospital. Once she was strong enough the plan to extract her daughter from a mafia drug lord was set in motion. Peyton had been taken for six months. The team rallied to do what they do best. Christopher Harbour was great with the narration.
