Bad Attitude

J. D. Steele is a former US Army sniper fallen from grace after his partner is killed, and he is left to take the blame for another’s bad decision.  A foolish attack on the person responsible lands him courtmarshalled and rotting in jail.  Approached by a mysterious trio, a man and two women who claim they can give him his life back.  All he has to do is join their shadow agency and perform a simple task.  Unable to trust anyone, not even the alluring Sydney Westbrook who is assigned as his partner, and unwilling to kill again, he wonders how he can escape from this predicament and keep his life.  The Bureau of American Defense does not mess around.

I’ve yet to come across a genre within Romance that Sherrilyn Kenyon doesn’t excell at.  Spy romance? Not quite sure what to call it but oh my it’s good.  As she has with her other series, Sherrilyn creates an interesting world for her characters to play in and gives them solid backgrounds.  I like the B.A.D. Agency and I love the characters of Tee and Joe even if they are minor characters for this book, I do hope I get to see them in their own story.

The main characters here however are Sydney Westbrook and J. D. Steele.  Sydney is a shorter, curvier Angelina Jolie lookalike with a kickass attitude, and an iron knee, who couldn’t love her?  Then there is the very hot and mouthwatering J. D. Steele.  Oh my!

I love the fact Sherrilyn Kenyon doesn’t just create copies of other characters with minor changes, they are all unique in their own way and have their own flaws and idiosyncrasies.  I have to say though that this book feels more erotic and sensual than others have been and no, I don’t think that’s a bad thing, just keep a fan handy

Fast action, absorbing plot, hot scenes and brilliant characters make this a book you have to read.
