Bound to Danger

Deadly Ops, Book 2

De: Katie Reus

Narrado por: Sophie Eastlake

At a benefit dinner, community activist Maria Cervantes overhears two men plotting a terrorist attack that could rock Miami to its core. But before she can alert authorities, she's almost killed in a massive explosion - and wakes up in a hospital with no memory of what happened. As the sole survivor of the attack, she is now a person of interest to the NSA - and especially to Agent Cade O'Reilly. Because Maria is the one woman Cade has never been able to forget.

Years ago, they were closer than either was willing to admit - until Cade disappeared when Maria needed him most. Now he's sticking by her, whether she likes it or not. Because the memories locked inside her mind could hold vital clues to the next attack. Because terrorists want her dead - and because he never wants to let her go again.

Contains mature themes.

NUMBER OF HEARTS: 4
REVIEW:
As I read over my original review of Bound to Danger (below) I find that I loved this book just as much the second time around as I did the first time. But this go around I listened on audio. Sophie Eastlake does a good job of bringing Ms. Reus’ characters to life. My only complaint is that at time the male voice sound a little stuffy. But other than that, I enjoyed the non-stop action of this story.


Original review: Eight years is a long time to stay away from the one you love. But that is what Cade O’Reilly did and he had his reasons. But when Maira’s name come acrossed the board as needing protection he know that he was the only one that could do it. He will do anything for Maira, except let her go this time. This time he plans to stay, but will Maira want him to after she learns of his secrets?

Bound to Danger is the second book in Katie Reus’ news Deadly Ops series. Bound to Danger is every bit as good as Targeted (bk 1). From page one there is not stop action. And even in the middle of a life and death situation Katie is able to let our hero & heroine have a great love story.

Disclaimer:
I received a complimentary copy of the audiobook from Katie Reus and Audible.com in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.

It Can Happen Here

Miami is under siege. A deadly terrorist attack at a palatial mansion has left only one survivor. Maria Cervantes doesn't remember what happened and why she was found outside. When Cade O'Reilly learned what happened, he asked to be assigned to protect her. He was her brother's best friend and has loved her for years. What happens next is a heart stopping adventure written as only Katie Reus can. The chemistry between Maria and Cade is very sensual. Their passion takes a backseat to their determination to track down those responsible for this atrocity. Will they get a second chance to find love together? The suspense is non-stop and has many twists and turns that had me completely hooked. The glamorous setting added to the tense atmosphere as does the powerful dialogue. Jack Stone is familiar from the first Deadly Ops book, Targeted. I love that Katie Reus combines a passionate romance with a tense action filled thriller.The story is so powerful and the plot so possible that the story took my breath away. The narration by Sophie Eastlake adds to the tension. I find that audiobooks increase my enjoyment. Bound to Danger made me realize that such carnage can happen here.

Explosive from Beginning to End

This book kept you on the edge of your seat from the first minute to the last. Sophie Eastlake did an amazing job with the narration and lent her talent to a fast-paced and adventurous story.
I wondered if Maria Cervantes was going to have to use her nine lives (if she had them) when the story began, but once Agent Cade O'Reilly stepped on the scene I breathed a little easier. Just a little. One threat after another built up my anxiety until I felt like yelling "Watch out!" to the characters.
Meanwhile the relationship between Maria and Cade heated up to a degrees that rivaled some of the explosions, but threatened to be dowsed in ice by a secret Cade carried with him.
Adventure, suspense, romance, a damsel in distress and an alpha male that will do anything for her. These were all ingredients that made up a recipe for genius story telling. I really enjoyed this book.

Super sexy and action-packed!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Bound to Danger?

So many great action scenes to get wrapped up in. And, the incredibly tender moments between Cade and Maria, especially as seen through their written correspondence flashbacks.

Action Pack Story

Would you listen to Bound to Danger again? Why?

Yeah, because the story is awesome and Sophie does a fantastic job.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Cade. Throughout the story he kept a level head, but there are times he slipped up due to Maria.

What does Sophie Eastlake bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I read the book before listening to Sophie narrate. I think the story comes to life and is so much better listening.

If I could I totally would listen to this story in one sitting.
