How I got this book: E-Arc from Publisher
Troy has been recovering from an injury and is going crazy. Steven—one of the nurses helping him—has caught his attention in every way. When both men are dragged into a government conspiracy thanks to the consulting work Troy does, the men get thrown into a life-altering, intimate situation where the only way out is to rely on each other fully.
Troy Price has been recovering in the hospital. One of the Triage nurses, Steven Thompson, has caught his eye. Drawn into his consultancy work, Troy finds himself in way over his head. Steven, intrigued and protective stumbles along with him.
All too soon Troy and Steven are dragged into the murky world of back stabbing, double dealing and where nothing anyone says is really how it seems. By the time they realise Troy’s contact may have double crossed them from the start—and sent two assassins after them and a parliament official, things spiral rapidly out of control.
Troy and Steven need to work together, fast, to try and find out what’s really going on. With danger lurking around every turn and with death the only easy way to defend oneself, Troy and Steven have to rely on each other and trust one another as never before.
Publisher’s Note: This book is related to The Agency series but can be read as a standalone title.
I don’t know. I’m not really feeling this one. Although it says standalone I got the feeling there were details that I was missing out on with regards to backstory and characters. I couldn’t connect with either the characters or the storyhere and this left me struggling to finish the read.
I’m not going to give this one a rating since I skimmed the majority of it.
