Countdown to the RITAs: Soldier’s Last Stand by Cindy Dees

Years after her brother died while committing a terrorist act, Eve Dupont has a chance to clear her family name and get back the life that was taken away from her. But that means infiltrating a terrorist cell and having Brady Hathaway as her handler. She’s not quite sure how to deal with Brady. She’s used to getting her way and gaining power by using her looks and sexual allure but Brady is immune.

Brady is one of those guys who like rules and he is the strictest on himself. After surviving his childhood, he wants order in his life and he doesn’t want to babysit a party girl. He’s attracted to Eve but she embodies everything he dislikes in a woman. Brady doesn’t do casual flings but he’s about to give into temptation.

While Brady and Eve fight their attraction with sexy banter, they find themselves in life-or-death situations. This story has a lot of suspenseful moments and plenty of action. It doesn’t take long for Brady to realize that Eve is brave, funny and outrageous.

Soldier’s Last Stand by Cindy Dees is a Harlequin Romantic Suspense. It is nominated for a RITA in the Contemporary Series Romance: Suspense/Adventure category.
