Undercover Games
Nick Kaplan and Aidan Blake are experienced secret agents, stars of MI-5... or they were until they moved in together and became lovers all in one fell swoop. Now, before they have a chance to work out what’s happening between them, they face their hardest test keeping their hands off each other when they go undercover as strangers. Someone is selling deadly secrets to Great Britain's enemies and a terrible chemical weapon is about to fall into the wrong hands.
Nick and Aidan are ordered to the scene of the crime—a government lab—to track down the traitor. Faced with the prospect of a long stay in a remote Northern corner of England, Nick offers Aidan a whoever breaks their self-imposed celibacy first by instigating sex will pay the price when they return to London. It’s all fun and games until they actually have to tough it out. If they can’t make this work, all of Great Britain could be at risk, but neither of them can think clearly when they have to be apart.
For Queen & Country, the newest series by author Jade Cain, combines intrigue, action, sex, and humor with two unforgettable (and sometimes irresponsible) British spies, Nick Kaplan and Aidan Blake.

Well that was just adorable!
Aidan Blake is a MI-5 Operative and pseudo-mad-scientist who has a tendency to set up chemistry experiments in his kitchen - though, he's at least considerate enough to leave room for the kettle ;)
Nick Kaplan is ex-Military, pulled off field work by MI-5. The resulting pay-cut meant moving in with a flat-mate in order to save money.
We're dropped right into the middle of this relationship, but apparently these two quickly went from flatmates to lovers. They're solidly in the 'lovers' phase by the time you start the book. Aiden and Nick worked together at MI-5 before Nick was taken out of the field, and now a case has come up where both of them are going undercover.
National security is at risk..
The boys must go undercover at a government lab to determine who is selling state secrets to the highest bidder. Aiden will go undercover in the lab as a researcher, and Nick will put on his military uniform once more to infiltrate the lab's security force.
Here's the thing - Nick and Aidan have to pretend to be strangers or their cover will be blown. They've spent the last six months burning up the sheets together in their flat... Now they're facing a month of celibacy while they work on the case.
The boys make a friendly wager:
Who will cave first and demand sex?
The resulting hijinks were wonderfully humorous and light-hearted.
This was a very quick story, and I'm afraid there wasn't much depth to it.
We don't get much back-story on our main characters, but this is a series, so with any luck details will be filled in as additional books are written.
I didn't feel much suspense... At least, not as much as I was expecting considering the fact that this was an undercover mission with National Security at stake.
Overall it was very sweet and entertaining... Oh, and very British :)

"A wager, then. Can you, or can you not, go without sex for the duration of the case?"Short, Sweet, and wonderfully sexy!

I enjoyed this shortie!
Undercover Games tells the story of two secret agents who are also (already) lovers and have an assignment that demands that they not ‘touch’ each other. Let me tell ya. That was tough because Nick and Aidan are sweet and sexy. Their relationship is still new – 6 months – and they are still trying to figure out things. Their passion is strong so 1 month of not touching would be a challenge.
So they agreed on this challenge. Whoever caved in first would win the bet and get his wish met. This proved to be very entertaining as they also tried to solve the mystery of who was selling secrets to Britain’s enemies. The mystery made me curious but there wasn’t a lot of tension there.
Solid storyline. Good premise. Loveable characters. Nice tension between the guys. And very HAWT!
The narrator also deserves to be mentioned. I liked how he gave the guys two distinct voices/sounds. You couldn’t confuse them. He made Nick sound like the tougher one and Aidan, the gentler one. I liked that. Their voices matched the characters they portrayed. Nice job, Mr. Stephens.
Very British. Recommended. A solid 4 stars. Can’t wait to read more about these guys. Their passion is palpable.

November 26, 2019Dropped half way.
I only got the audiobook and couldn't care for the narration. Although the voices for the two MC's was really good, the overall narration was pretty lazy. I mean, seems like the narrator was tired or something, I couldn't get in the mood.
I'll purchase the kindle edition though, the srotyline seems nice and I am a bit curious to know the end.
