I pitied Shannon because she blamed herself for not being there for her little brother, who overdosed on drugs. Now she’s determined to avenge him. I liked Ron Blair from the beginning, who’s now under Shannon’s command. Back when he’d been her commanding officer as a SEAL, he never made it easy for her, in part because she had a lot to prove as a woman and because of her upbringing. Once they became lovers, he couldn't get enough of her. He followed her into the Network but their relationship became purely professional from that point on. Now she’s on a deadly mission to nail her enemy and Ron can’t help being afraid he’ll lose her for good. Every book in this series is so exciting, I can’t wait to get to the next one each time. ( )
