What is more intriguing than a badass? A pair of badasses. Or a group of them. Lol! Really, this edition to the Cordoba agency hit many spots with this clutch island mystery. I think I love this couple as much as Cruze and his lady. A good read...
Hossam and Alissa parted ways because of a misunderstanding! His joining her in her hometown was what they both needed to take down some really bad people and solidify their love for each other!!!! I was saddened to learn along with Alissa that someone she trusted from a child took her parents from her! I can hardly wait to see what these high achieving members of Cordoba Agency will get into once all members are together in Hopevale!!!! Yes, Alissa is one bad sister who gets the job done with finesse'! The intrigue and fight scenes showed some of the myriad skillsets of the men and women of the Cordoba Agency!!!!! Great job Delaney, A truly great job with Hossam and Alissa's story, thank you.
Alissa had just had another harrowing experience in her job. She sought out rest in her native VI. Little did she know her past was about to catch up with her. Hossam was on a mission to get her back in his life. She was not wanting to believe his words. An accident happened and Alissa nearly lost her life. Together with friends would she uncover deceit and murder and embezzlement. Hossam was on a mission and it appears that they both win over their problems. Fabulous sexy read set in a favorite location for me.
Loved Hossam and Alissa’s story. They had been separated for a year because of a misunderstanding and he decided to go claim his woman. What a wild ride they took us on to solve the crime on her home turf. The Cordoba Agency to the rescue. Love those guys. Looking forward to more from them.
Forever Again is the latest installment in the fast-paced Cordoba Agency series. Alissa Francis is an assassin, and we get to see her in action as soon as the book starts. We understand why she is a member of the agency: She is not to be messed with! Alissa had been in an on again, off again relationship with Hossam Jalal, a French Arab man who fell in love with Alissa when he saw her in action on a mission.
Alissa broke up with Hossam for good. While she is on vacation back home in St. Thomas, Hossam seizes the moment to convince her to take him back. He won’t give up easily. He loves her “beautiful brown eyes that lit up when she was happy”. A casual dinner between the pair turned into a mission of sorts as they try to figure out why an important figure on the Island was killed. This one is fast paced. As soon as I thought the chain of events was predictable, Ms. Diamond added a plot twist that I wasn’t expecting.
As with prior books in the series, Forever Again has action and suspense as well as a couple with strong chemistry. I enjoyed how Ms. Diamond highlighted the rich culture and dialect of the Virgin Islands. I enjoyed Forever Again. See complete review at Romanceincolor.com.
I enjoyed this novel because it was set in a place, I completely understand. I was born in a country bordered by the Caribbean Sea. Alissa has such great pride in her country.
Alissa was able to find forgiveness and trust with Hossam in her home on her turf, so to speak. I’m glad that they were able to put over a year of misunderstanding behind them in order to finally commit to each other and move forward to have a life together.
Alissa was also able to find the people responsible for her parent’s death, and it was sad that it was someone so close to home.
Ms. Diamond has created a really great adventurous series with twists & turns and mysteries based on real-life scenarios. The romances are hot, and the lovemaking is sexy, not to mention a little explicit.🥰😊😍
This book started out with a bang!! My girl Alissa handled her business with a quickness! Don’t get caught sleeping around her! She and Hossam were made for each other. However, a misunderstanding between them broke them up for a year, until he decided to go to her on her home turf. They both ended up having to “handle their business” in their profession while on the islands. It even brought Cruz and the gang on the scene for assistance! I throughly enjoyed this book! I’m loving these Cordoba Agency books! Such awesomeness Delaney Diamond! Thank you!!You NEVER disappoint!! Until the next one!! 🔥❤️
Fabulous read, romantic suspense, second chance, assassins/lovers, good story/plot, character development, great supporting cast. Hossam comes to St. Thomas to get his woman back. Alissa has her hands full at the moment. These 2 assassins will have to handle 'business' first before they can get down to business and resolve their personal issues. I love a fierce female character and Alissa is it! This is book 5 in a series, can be read as a standalone - but read them all for an enhanced experience. This couple works and plays well together! I enjoyed this passionate page turner!
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Here we go again. This series is getting better and better. Alissa went home to rest and found here self in a mess and long time former lover should up a he'll break lose. She and Hossam got in a little trouble and needed help from old friends . Alissa always wondered who kill here parents and why. She wondered what she will do if she found them and she did. But you never thought she would do what she did. You must get this book and the series if do not. Delaney Diamond you did it again. Can not wait for next book
It was so good to see Cruz, Hunter and Ra. They were exciting brazen, and funny. I love those guys and girls. Although I get the feeling that it's not over. Will she avenge her parents death? Will the world need their help in taking down the bad guys and women? Please give us more! Don't we all love Delaney Diamond and her mind?! Another amazing read!!! 😊
Alissa & Hossam had a unique relationship full of danger and chemistry. He was willing to do anything to prove that she was his one and only. Forever Again had it all. Suspense, murder, intrigue and romance. This is a must read to see how Alissa & Hossam met but also what put the brakes on their undercover relationship.
It was also good to see the fellas of Cordoba Agency.
You have to love Hoosam! He is fine as wine and loves is habibti! Alisa is a handful! She is a boss lady through and through! The man of God is a mess and that senator! They got what was coming to them! I love the setting and the food!! Made me want to visit the islands! Good job Ms. Diamond!
☆☆☆☆ 🌶🌶🌶 Hossam and Alissa were cute. I wanted to hug Alissa so bad. I loved how dedicated Hossam was to her and how he was man enough to recognise and work to rectify his mistake and that acknowledged and validated Alissa's feelings. it was great to see the Cordoba team back together. wondering if Mouse will get her own story?
Great read, I enjoyed the characters and storyline. Alissa and Hossam are former on and off again lovers. Hossam wants to a relationship with Alissa, can she forgive him? Amidst the action packed story sprinkled was corruption and deceit, they manage to rekindle their forever love. It was great catching up with the guys from the Cordoba Agency.
And exciting, fast paced and adventurous reading! Another suspenseful plot and action scenarios that I can visualize in my mind's eye. Who needs Netflix®? The author has a concise writing style, she presents complex plots clearly. Uses effective editing and formatting to hold my attention.
Love everything about this story. Great twists and turns. Some I figured out, some were surprising. So happy for Alissa and Hossam that they got their HEA.
I loved the characters, foods, and descriptive scenes. The action and suspension. Jeremiah was a trip and I don't think I would have been as forgiving in regards to Theresa. Read the entire book in a few hours. Thanks, what's
I read everything Delaney Diamond publishes. The heroine is bad ass, the significant other is fine as hell. The story was exciting, historical, full of love and respect for each other and the team. Love is the greatest gift of all.
I loved this story it was action packed from the beginning until the end. If you haven't read any of the Cordoba Agency's books what are you waiting for. If your thing is action,guns,spys with hot sex thrown in then this series is for you.
You don't want to mess with Alissa, she is for real. Hossam was no joke either. I'm glad he showed on the island. Together with the guys from the agency they took care of business. I didn't see that last part coming. WOW
This book was also good. I was nice to see the crew from Cordoba Agency come together. Hossam and Alissa was really good together and loved each othef. Kudos to Delaney on another amazing book.
I loved everything about this story, but it threw me for a loop. I knew to keep looking out for the phrase from the parent's killer but when it was revealed in the end I couldn't believe it.
It’s good to have read the story of Allison and Hossam with quite frankly fighting to bring there cultures together with learning to actively working together with the Love for one another.
Book number 5 was packed with drama, forgiveness, murder, lies, secrets, and romance. As Alissa and Hossan navigate throw it all they find peace while getting revenge. Never a doubt Cruz and the Cordoba Agency were there to help.
I knew that Teresa Hodge wasn't what she claimed to be. Hossam worked hard to win by Alessa love. When Cruz and the guys showed up Jeremiah Gracewoods camp was coming down.
As an island girl and one who spent a lot of time in the Virgin Islands, I loved that the action took place in St. Thomas. Get comfortable as you will want to read it in one sitting.
Knowing what you have to do in order to survive and to protect the ones you love. I love that Alissa can handle what is thrown at her, she learned from the best. She is a real bad a$$ and I love it.
