Synopsis:~

Ava Jackson entered the military shortly after high school, but her mother’s illness has forced her to request an early discharge. She already lost her father while deployed, and there’s no way she’s going to let her mother die alone. But after a visit to the nursing facility where her mother lives, Ava is attacked walking back to her car. Fortunately, FBI Special Agent Caden Denning arrives in time to help fight off her attacker.

Caden reveals to Ava that she may hold the key to the murders of three families, and he needs her help before anyone else is harmed. The hits show a pattern, and clearly the killer has an agenda. But if Caden and Ava can’t discover what it is, Ava may be next on the hit list.

Necee’s take:~

“Man, she was . . . cute. Fierce and feisty. And very, very capable. His admiration for her had been high to begin with. Now it was off the charts. But that didn’t mean he was leaving.”

A serial killer has her in his sights and her secrets could get her killed. Action- packed and full of intrigue, Lynette Eason wrote a book that kept me on the edge of my seat. This book is part of the Danger Never Sleeps series, but could be read as a standalone. I have enjoyed this entire series of military friends finding a new life after getting out. However, this book really was my favorite. It had everything I love, from mystery to international intrigue, and of course a riveting romance.

“The sight of her holding the gun completely discombobulated him. It was so . . . un-Ava-like.”

We finally get to see Caden meet his match in Ava, and wow, is she amazing! I love how confident she is, and her skills and reasoning really showed a side of her I didn’t expect. She is such a mystery and it was fun watching her secrets unfold. Caden knew her well enough to help her and work alongside her. Plus, he is a strong male lead I just adored.

“It’s not that I don’t think you can take care of yourself. It’s the fact that we all need someone to have our back sometimes.”’

This was a great read!  If you love authors like Ronie Kendig, Susan May Warren, and Joel Rosenberg, I think you’ll love Hostile Intent. The action, intrigue, and romance just don’t stop.

I was given an advanced copy by the publisher through NetGalley. All opinions expressed are my own and are given honestly.
