“Without a doubt, I’ve just met the woman who is probably going to be the death of me.”
This book tells the story of Andre Navarro and Willow Barnhill and is book 3 is the Agile Security and Rescue Series by Jenna Gunn.
Tho this book is part of a series and the characters are interconnected, it can be read as a standalone.
In the previous book of this series, we had some glimpses at Andre as part of the Agile team. He even gave Scotch a hard time. But in this book, he get to really know the man - his depths, what makes him what he is, what makes him tick,… how brave and noble he is.
“He’s gorgeous. Hard, but breathtakingly handsome. His skin is tan, a perfect complement to his nearly black hair. ”
…
“Warm. He’s very warm. And strong. Every bit of six foot four. Probably two hundred and fifty pounds. This man is big, muscular, and hard all over.”
Andre Navarro is a beast of a man.
The ex-army sniper, is fearless, strong and doesn’t scare easily.
He’d say he’s a mean man and has no heart, but I’d say he has a rough exterior and thick walls surrounding him, thanks to the life he has lived, but as a soft interior and a heart of gold!
“I’m high-visibility. For a cause.”
“That’s an interesting way to describe being famous.”
Dr. Willow Barnhill became famous after saving the life of a dozen people after a tornado.
Now she’s a Tv personality that goes on talk-show and conferences to talk about Emergency preparedness.
Despite her life being busy and somewhat glamorous, Willow hides a very scarred past.
Her walls are probably has high and has thick and Andre’s tho for entire different reasons.
“No one’s ever been obligated to comfort me, even when I was a kid. I had to learn how to do it for myself. Burying my nose in a book, losing myself in a world far away, was the first thing I discovered that worked.”
After Willow and Andre witness a hit, they’re both in grave danger.
The people that did the hit, want no witnesses and aren’t joking around. So in order to survive the two start an adventure full of hiding, action and somewhat illegal activities…
This book is jammed packed with romance and action!
The narrative is fast paced and will keep you on your toes about what’s going to happen next.
I loved, loved, loved Andre as a hero! So strong, so conflicted, so nobel!
Willow is a fantastic heroine! Charismatic, strong, with a great humanitarian sense.
And honestly I loved that we not only had their love story, but the secondary narrative about Willows father was so interesting and add so much depth to the story!
“I love you, Willow. And I don’t fucking deserve you. But that hasn’t stopped me from falling hard for you. And when you said you love me, it was like hitting me with a lightning bolt. And to tell you the truth, I’m still not sure I’ll survive the strike.”
She lets out a slow breath. “It’s a good thing I’m an expert at reviving people.”
I loved this book!
Can’t wait for the next one in the series! I’m so pumped to read Wolf, Mako and Marshall’s stories!
