My review
This has been a 5 star series all the way through the author gives you an action pack read full of danger and thrills that will keep you guessing as she throws in a little humor to keep you smiling. I have totally enjoyed the first two books in this series as the author pulls and gives you a page turner that keeps you wanting more. D.I.R.E is a company that has went one step ahead with enhancements of electrical conductor that former Navy SEAL Aidan must learn to control as he fight to bring justice not only for his father but the world.

Aidan meets Cassandra whose father has been the long time foe of the D.I.R.E. I have to say I got a kick out of how she got the better of him. Cassandra is full of surprises as she takes on the D.I.R.E and her father. She finds out more than she ever wishes she had. Everyone is holding secrets that they might not want others to find out. Aidan wants to find the person who killed his father all eyes are pointed to Cassandra father but not everything is as it seems. Someone else might have things they want settled as the author takes you on a whirl spin of suspense to uncover who did what to whom.

Cassandra loves her father but I think she is more afraid of him than she loves him. She has learned it is easier to toe the line than to see his vengeful wrath. Even shot and almost dying will not stop her father from doing what he wants. He has taken one man away from her will he take another? She is very attracted to Aidan but she can't afford to let those feeling grow he is the enemy or is he? Her father even on deaths door has a few things to say about it and none of them being good. I really liked this character as she grows and becomes strong enough to stand up to the man who raised her.

Aidan is full of surprises as he falls for the oldest trick in the book. She might get away but he always gets his man or women. He is very protective, caring and at times loving. I had to laugh at him a few times as he falls on his face only to be pulled back in one way or another. He is playing a game with death for the mission he must undertake might be his last just as he was bring Cassandra around to his way of thinking everything falls apart. With him leaving on this mission could this be the last time they see each other? Can he leave her behind and will she want him if he makes it back?

I thought Fred Filbrich did a wonderful job of narration. The only issue I found was I could hear him swallow. I did find one I heard it I found myself listening for it which might add to me noticing it in this one more so than in the first audio of this series. I thought he brought the characters to life giving them wonderful voices with lots of action. His tones where right on the money you were never left guessing as to how the character was feeling. You could hear the pain, smiles and excitement with each one. I heard no background noise and I could not tell if he ever took a break. It was even flow throughout the whole narration. It was easy to tell if the character was male or female as he changed back and forward. I really enjoyed his narration and do look forward to listening to him some more.

The author gives you an action pack read as she bring surprise after surprise to the readers. This is really a complicated read with everything each of the characters are hiding. Nothing is as it seems and then the past comes and hits you in the face leaving the characters guessing as to what just happen. The author gives you very strong characters which you will come to love. I am sure you will be like me and can't wait to listen to the other audios in this series. The ending of this story will leave you begging for more. I know I can't wait to start the next one. The authors writing style is out of this world she knows how to pull you in as she spins a tale leaving you hooked. She knows how to heat the pages up as she keeps you laughing at the messes they get into. She gives you a passion filled read that will leave you smiling. She bring enhancements to her characters giving them super powers that you can only imagine. Before you are done with this read your head will be spinning as to who is related to whom. She takes you to another place in time as she brings the past to the future and back again. She keeps you smiling and laughing out loud at the story she spins. This is one heck of a ride you do not want to miss.

Book Description
Agent E2: Aidan Monroe

Credentials:
• Second generation Former Navy SEAL
• DIRE’s latest SEAL acquisition
Enhancements:
• Electrical Conductor

Former Navy SEAL, Aidan Monroe, embraces risk. Show him a hint of danger – or a beautiful woman - and he’s all over it. The only commitments in his life: his new D.I.R.E. enhancements and finding his father’s killers.

Cassandra Naylor, daughter of D.I.R.E.’s greatest foe, has one goal in mind: save her father and twin brother. However, she didn’t bank on D.I.R.E.’s superpowers, or Aidan Monroe’s irresistible appeal.

Cassandra can’t ignore the scorching electricity between her and Aidan. When their passion is unleashed after a night of dangerous, life-changing events, Cassandra knows there’s no going back. Yet, giving in to her feelings guarantees her father’s vengeful wrath.

While they fight their attraction for one another, traitors from the past, and death-defying circumstances force shocking revelations to the surface.

Can their love overcome history and betrayal? Or, will the past rob them of any future they have together?
