Sierra Team didn't see that coming!
Ryssa and Rivers had their future stolen when Rivers had to enter Blackout, but when Ryssa walks into the compound, he knows it's the second chance he never expected and this time...he will fight for her, for them, for their future. It's not the future they planned, but life has already crushed that dream, this is a new future, for the people they have become, the people who work in the darkness, those the public don't know exist.
I love seeing this second chance romance, the love is very obviously still there, it's why the loss still hurts six years later. And the passion and chemistry is very definitely still there, they just need to regain the trust. And Rivers knows it's very easy to break trust, but so much harder to earn it back!
A great addition to the series, I love all the Sierra Team and especially the women who steal their hearts. I can't wait for Connor to find his soul mate, she will be super feisty and explosive! I read this on Kindle Unlimited.

It's great that after the years, the protagonists could reunite; they went through tears, pain, ambush, and love and its various exposures, while gaining friends and family.

🖤❤️ Six Years Apart Couldn’t Erase What They Had ❤️🖤
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars
I have really been enjoying the SEAL Team Blackout Sierra series, and Deep Cover was such an emotional addition to it. This one had the action, suspense, conspiracy, and danger I expect from this series, but what really pulled me in was the relationship between Reid Rivers and Caryssa Lane. These two didn't just have a little history. They had a whole future planned together, and then it was ripped away from them.
Reid was supposed to be dead.
Caryssa spent six years believing that the man she loved was gone. She mourned him, rebuilt her life around that loss, and threw herself into her work as an FBI intelligence analyst. She never really moved on, though, and I loved that the story didn't pretend six years was enough time to erase what Reid meant to her. Then she walks into the Blackout Sierra compound for an investigation and comes face-to-face with the man she buried.
Talk about an emotional gut punch. 🥹
And Caryssa's reaction felt completely justified. She isn't just shocked that Reid is alive. She's furious, hurt, confused, and forced to confront six years of grief all at once. She thought she had lost the love of her life, only to discover that he had been alive the entire time. Reid knows exactly how much his decision hurt her, and he also knows that explaining why he had to disappear doesn't magically give those six years back.
That lost time was probably my favorite part of their story.
Reid didn't leave because he stopped loving Caryssa. He made the decision to become part of Blackout Sierra because he believed it was the only way to protect the people he loved. He had to die on paper and disappear from the life they were building together. He went into the darkness knowing exactly what he was giving up, and six years later, he still hasn't stopped loving her.
So when Caryssa walks through that door, there is obviously still love between them. The problem isn't whether they have feelings. They very clearly do.
The problem is trust.
And I really enjoyed watching them work through that.
Reid knows that trust can be destroyed in an instant and takes much longer to rebuild, and he can't expect Caryssa to simply forgive everything because he had a reason. She has every right to be angry about the life they lost. At the same time, Reid has spent six years thinking about her and carrying the weight of the decision he made. Neither of them can just pretend the past didn't happen.
There is SO much longing between these two. Longing for the time they lost, longing for the future they were supposed to have, and eventually longing for a chance to build something new together.
Because I loved that their second chance isn't about trying to recreate the exact life they had planned six years ago.
They're different people now.
Reid has spent years working in the shadows as part of Blackout Sierra. Caryssa has built a career and a life without him. The future they originally imagined is gone, but that doesn't mean they can't create a different one. Watching them slowly realize that was really special.
Caryssa was also a great addition to the team. She's an FBI intelligence analyst, and I loved that her skills actually mattered to the investigation. She's intelligent, capable, and good at putting complicated pieces together, so she isn't simply brought into the story as Reid's love interest. She has a job to do, and she contributes to the mission while trying to figure out what the heck she's supposed to do with the man she thought was dead.
And of course, putting these two in close quarters while they're trying to solve a dangerous weapons investigation is basically guaranteed to create tension. 😂
There are stolen military weapons, hidden evidence, leaks, killers, and a larger conspiracy unfolding around them, so there is plenty happening outside the romance too. I liked how the suspense kept the story moving while the relationship gave the book its emotional center.
I also have to mention the Blackout Sierra team because I really love this group. The camaraderie, the banter, and the way these men have slowly built their own found family are some of my favorite parts of the series. And I especially love seeing the women who have found their way into their lives. Caryssa getting pulled into that world made her connection to the team feel about more than just Reid.
And now I am sitting here thinking about Connor. 👀
I NEED to see who Em Petrova has planned for him because I have a feeling that woman is going to have to be just as feisty and explosive as he is. 😂
One of the things I appreciated most about Deep Cover is that it never loses sight of the emotional consequences of Reid's decision. There is action and danger, but underneath all of it is a man who gave up the woman he loved and a woman who spent six years believing she had buried her future. That makes every moment between them feel heavier.
This was a great second-chance romance because the love never actually disappeared. They just had to figure out whether there was a way to trust each other again and whether they could build a future from the pieces they had left.
Deep Cover gave me suspense, a strong military team, a smart heroine, a protective hero, plenty of tension, and a second chance romance filled with six years of feelings that never went away.
Another great addition to the Blackout Sierra series, and I am absolutely sticking around to see what happens next. ❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🖤🔥 She Thought He Was Dead—Then He Walked Back Into Her Life! 🥹
Deep Cover by Em Petrova is an emotional and suspenseful addition to the SEAL Team Blackout Sierra series! I absolutely loved the setup for Reid Rivers and Caryssa Lane. A second-chance romance is already one of my favorites, but add in a wounded SEAL who was presumed dead and the woman who had to grieve the future they were supposed to have together, and I was hooked. ❤️
Reid survived the gunshot that nearly ended his career and is finally back with his team. He’s supposed to be focused on finding out who’s behind a cache of stolen military weapons. The last thing he expects is for the FBI intelligence analyst brought in to help with the investigation to be Caryssa—the woman he never stopped loving.
But Caryssa’s side absolutely got me. 🥹 She didn’t think Reid had simply walked away from her. She believed he was dead. She’s spent years living with that loss, only to suddenly walk into a room and discover that the man she loved and mourned is very much alive. Talk about an emotional reunion!
I really enjoyed that Caryssa is an FBI intelligence analyst who brings her own expertise to the investigation. She’s there because she’s talented at putting together complicated puzzles, and I liked seeing her working alongside the Blackout Sierra team rather than simply being someone Reid needs to protect.
Of course, putting Reid and Caryssa back together means all those old feelings come rushing back too. The stolen glances, forbidden kisses, forced proximity, and memories of the future they once planned make it pretty clear that neither of them ever truly stopped loving the other. ❤️🔥
At the same time, there’s a dangerous investigation unfolding around them. The missing military weapons lead into a much larger conspiracy, and the closer Reid, Caryssa, and the team get to the truth, the more dangerous things become. I loved having that suspense running alongside their second-chance romance.
At 200 pages, this gives you a great combination of romance, danger, mystery, action, and emotion. Reid may be the protective alpha SEAL willing to risk everything, but Caryssa is smart and capable in her own right, which made me enjoy them even more as a couple.
If you love military romantic suspense, second chances, presumed-dead heroes, wounded warriors, forced proximity, FBI heroines, protective alpha SEALs, danger and conspiracy, and couples who never really stopped loving each other, Reid and Caryssa’s story is definitely one to pick up.
Absolutely 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Navy SEAL Reid Rivers was the man FBI Intelligence Analyst Caryssa Lane loved and believed to have buried and grieved. After River's death, Caryssa walked through life like she had nothing to lose-- not forming attachments, not maintaining relationships, just throwing herself 1000% into her job. Little did she know that she would come face to face with the love of her life when she's assigned to help an elite Black Ops Team decipher evidence to help determine who is behind a stolen cache of military weapons. Seeing him again and having her heart ripped wide open was not what she signed up for. Rivers was not dead-- he was very much still alive.
Being a special operative with Blackout Sierra means leaving those you loved behind and for them to believe that you're dead. Rivers never wanted to leave Caryssa. He loves her and she's all that he's thought about for the last 6 years. Sometimes a man has to do the unthinkable in order to keep those he loves alive and safe. Seeing Caryssa again was the best and worst kind of torture. He wants her forever but cannot keep her.
As they search down leaks in the system and examine hidden evidence (all while evading killers), their feelings for each other reignite. The biggest obstacle and ticking time bomb they face is that once this op is over, Rivers and Caryssa will be separated once again. They just found each other, each barely surviving the last 6 years of separation. How will they survive knowing that the other is out there while unable to be together?
There is a deep feeling of longing that threads throughout this book. Longing for the lost time over the last 6 years. Longing for each other at this exact moment in time. Longing to build a future together. This book has absolutely everything that the perfect romantic suspense book needs: an arcing mystery to be solved; A band of brothers (and now sisters) dedicated to the cause as well as each other; A romance that burns bright and deep, leaving even the reader longing for more pages so that the story doesn't end. This story was beautifully written and will be remembered for a long time to come. A definite must read!

Em Petrova delivers another gripping, high-octane military romance with Deep Cover. If you love a rollercoaster of a "back from the dead" trope mixed with a fierce, competent heroine and a fiercely protective Navy SEAL, this book will hook you from the very first page.
The emotional fallout hits you immediately and you can honestly feel Caryssa's heartbreak and shock from the very first page. Caryssa spent months grieving the man she loved, only to find out he’s alive, breathing, and has been deep undercover. The second-chance romance and tension between Caryssa and Rivers are incredibly raw. The author does a fantastic job showing that love doesn't just erase the trauma of abandonment and grief—they really have to work through the pain to rebuild their trust. Rivers is the ultimate alpha wounded warrior, but his desperation to win Caryssa back makes him completely swoon-worthy. I loved that Caryssa isn't a damsel in distress. As an FBI intelligence analyst, she brings her own brilliance to the table. Watching her use her skills to help the Blackout Sierra team made the suspense plot feel smart and fast-paced.
The found family dynamic and Blackout Sierra brotherhood bring the perfect mix of loyalty and banter, which really helps break up the intense, high-stakes missions.
If you love romantic suspense with equal parts heart-stopping action and deeply emotional romance, this is a must-read!

Deep Cover is a gripping, emotional romantic suspense that delivers both the adrenaline of a SEAL mission and the ache of a reunion years in the making. I loved how Reid’s return isn’t treated lightly—he’s still carrying the weight of the bullet that almost ended everything, and seeing him walk back into a room only to find Caryssa there makes the tension hit instantly. Their history feels lived‑in, and the shock of her realizing he’s alive adds a real emotional pull to the story.
Caryssa’s intelligence and calm under pressure make her a great match for the team, and I enjoyed how her analytical mind plays directly into the plot instead of being window dressing. Every stolen glance between her and Reid feels charged, especially with the danger closing in around them. The conspiracy thread keeps the pace tight, and the forced proximity gives their second chance room to breathe.
If anything, I would’ve liked just a bit more time with Reid and Caryssa talking through the years they lost, but the story stays true to its suspense‑driven momentum and delivers a satisfying blend of heat, danger, and heart.
Overall, this is a strong, emotional SEAL romance with a wounded warrior hero fighting for more than just the mission and a heroine who never stopped loving him—even when she thought she had to bury him. A great addition to the romantic suspense shelf and a standout moment in the Blackout Sierra series.

Definitely another great book by Em Petrova for her SEAL TEam Blackout Sierra. This one packs suspense, a second chance romance and all the yearning two MCs can handle!
Reid is part of the Blackout Sierra team, a medic, and ultra protective. He is dedicated to the team at the cost of the love of his life 6 years ago, a decision he made to save her life. But his secret is about to be revealed when Caryssa, now an FBI agent, is sent as sort of liasion to his team.
Caryssa's life stopped the moment Reid chose to leave and die (that is how it had to be done for him to enter the SEAL team) instead of the marriage they were heading into. But seeing him again has her fighting between betrayal, anger, and love that has never died for him. Reid cannot believe she is here and he has very contradicting emotions, ranging from need, pride, angst, fear, but the need to hold onto to her and not let go.
As she gathers and works with the information she compiles, she also learns about the team and the women that have come in their lives and feels the pull of a found family even when she knows that as soon as the work is done she will have to leave again. But how can they live when they know that there is no way for them to be together as Reid does not exist in the real world anymore.
This book is full of action, lots of investigation and intelligent narrative, the camaraderie, the passion, and the yearning for what could be.
A great read!.

I went into Deep Cover expecting a military romantic suspense story, but what stayed with me was the emotional weight between Reid Rivers and Caryssa. Six years is a long time to believe someone you loved is gone, and the story really makes you feel how hard it is for Caryssa to suddenly have Reid standing in front of her again. Reid has his own battle too. Coming back to his team after being badly wounded should have been enough to deal with, but facing the woman he never stopped loving brings a completely different kind of pain. I enjoyed watching them try to work around all the things they cannot simply say to each other while also being pulled toward each other again. Their history gives even the quieter moments a lot of meaning. I also liked the Blackout Sierra team because they bring some much-needed humor into an otherwise tense story. The stolen weapons investigation keeps the suspense moving, while the relationship gives the book its heart. There are plenty of moments where I wanted to tell both Reid and Caryssa to stop fighting what they were feeling and just talk, but that frustration is part of what kept me turning the pages. The result is a romance where the danger matters, but the second chance between two people matters even more. If you enjoy military romance with a strong emotional history, secrets, danger and a love that refuses to disappear, this one is easy to settle into...

She is given a new assignment which means she travels to Portland. Once there, she is forced to wear a black hood, driven for several hour and escorted into a bunker.
She is confronted by Reid Rivers her supposed dead boyfriend. She is incensed and gives him a piece of her mind. He can't tell why he had to leave.
Since she is FBI, she is treated with suspicion by all the team as well as Joie and Stina. Gradually she is able to accept Reid's actions, but not completely. they are developing an intimate relationship again when they are sent out to trace a post office box. The package they retrieve is not at all what is expected.
They finally get a handle on the weapons, converge on a warehouse which already in flames. Ryssa makes a snap decision which could have cost her life.
There is a very HEA ending to this story.
This story is this series was unique in that the characters had a history. Reid had never forgotten Ryssa, while she longed for him, never finding another man.
This was a great read.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Reid and Caryssa . . .
Reid Rivers survived a bullet saving the lives of two women when a gunman ran out of the tree line, already aiming his weapon. Reid twisted his body and put himself in front of the women as the bullet struck him between the 2 inches his vest didn't protect. Fortunately the cold snow around his body slowed the bleeding. The bullet had nicked his liver which had him on his back for a 2-month recovery. He had been aware that the kidnapper grabbed the woman and drove away. His own commanding officer of Sierra team, Cannon, was waiting for him after he went through the physical and psych exams after he had recovered. And he was judged fit for duty again. He had to "die" on paper as a member of Black Ops Sierra, so he could not return to the woman he loved.
Reid's new mission is now an assignment to find out who is behind a cache of stolen military weapons. He will be working with an FBI intelligence analyst, the perfect person to analyze who’s behind the missing weapons. But he never expected to see Caryssa Lane walk in! He was supposed to be dead! She saw him buried! Do their former feelings still exist? Will the mission make it impossible to find a second chance at love? Or will they even survive this dangerous mission as the stakes pull them deeper into danger with desperate killers determined to silence them at any cost?

Reid River and Caryssa Lane had a deep, true love. Everything was perfect, a wedding coming soon, until it all ended with the devastating loss of Reid. For six years, Caryssa has lived a dead life. Her only focus is on work, and as an FBI Intelligence Analyst, she is very busy. I can’t imagine the pain of losing the man you loved so deeply…of receiving his death notice instead of an engagement ring.
Reid River was almost out of the service, almost a married man to the woman he loved more than life itself. Then he learned of an impending attack, one that would vaporize millions, including his family and Caryssa. He gave up his future…he helped save everyone, but he had to die. For six years, Reid has been the medic for the covert SEAL Team Blackout Sierra. This story is very complicated. They are after a terrorist, as are many other agencies, including the FBI. The problem is that someone in the know has sold out the good guys, but who is it? Caryssa is a valuable member involved in this investigation. She has been assigned to help Sierra put the pieces together, and one of those members is a dead man; it’s Reid River. This is an intense story, a sad story, but the ending will make you smile. I received a free advance copy of this wonderful story from Booksprout, and this is my opinion. Linda

Reid Rivers was in the military and promised his girlfriend, FBI intelligence analyst Caryssa Lane that this would be his last mission. He was killed and Caryssa had to get along without him. Caryssa has been working a case and it is leading her to a black ops compound. She has a bag put over her head and when she walks into the war room, there is Reid. Six years she thought he was dead but he was a part of Blackout Sierra team. They are all “dead “ men. There is a leak somewhere and someone is stealing weapons. Reid was protecting two women who were kidnapped and he was shot. Now he has just been cleared to return to work when Claryssa walks in. Will Claryssa forgive Reid and give him a second chance?
Action. Steamy. Second chances. Military. Secret teams. It’s best to read the ones before this one. I didn’t and I was confused at first. A page turner. A little cliffhanger.

This is such an emotional book. Two people who belong together are torn apart by tragedy, only to find their way back to each other years later.
Reid lost Caryssa once, and this time, he’s holding on so tightly because he refuses to lose her again. Meanwhile, Caryssa has spent six years grieving him, believing he was dead. So when the man she thought she lost forever suddenly appears in front of her—very much alive—it completely shatters everything she thought she knew.
Their reunion is incredibly emotional, but for Caryssa, seeing Reid alive after all these years sends her spiraling. She has spent so long learning to live with his loss, only to have him suddenly return and bring all those buried emotions rushing back.
A heartbreaking story about love, loss, grief, and getting a second chance with the person you never stopped loving.

We’re back underground in the secret compound with the Black Out team, and this time there’s a very personal reunion.
Caryssa is with the FBI and has been sent to work alongside the team. She gets the shock of her life when she discovers that Reid, the man she once loved, is alive and working there. She believed he was dead, but the rules of this secret team mean some things are never what they seem.
Can they overcome their history when they both know their relationship may never have a future?
Meanwhile, the team is still hunting for possible leaks within the FBI and other government agencies, while following the trail of stolen weapons. There’s plenty still to uncover, and this part of the series is definitely ongoing. I can’t wait to see how it all plays out.
An emotional second-chance romance mixed with suspense, secrets and danger. I really enjoyed Caryssa and Reid’s story.

Review of advance copy
Book 3 in the Blackout Sierra series delivers exactly what I wanted — a smooth transition, steady intrigue, and a reunion packed with messy, beautiful emotion. Reid and Caryssa have six years of heartbreak between them, and every bit of anger, guilt, betrayal, and lingering love shows. The plot moves at an even pace as the team digs into who set up Echo and which agencies they can trust, with humor sprinkled in to keep things balanced. I’m dying to know what’s behind the Cannon/Rorke bad blood. Caryssa running back into a burning building nearly made me yell, but watching the team slowly realize she’s trustworthy was worth it. And that spur‑of‑the‑moment wedding? Loved it.

This was another 5 star read in the Seal Team Blackout Sierra series and my favorite one by far!
Reid Rivers, the team medic was shot at the end of book 2, and barely survived. The team has continued working on who is behind the cache of stolen military weapons from Team Echo.
An FBI analyst, Caryssa has been assigned to assist the team. Caryssa and Reid were deeply in love six years ago, when Reid was ‘killed’ in action and she is surprised and angry to find him alive.
The deep feelings and chemistry are still there along with a love that never died. There are still so many emotions between these two and Reid gave up so much to save those he loved.
The dangerous investigation in the missing weapons, points to a much bigger conspiracy. This was an emotional, suspenseful and steamy read with a great epilogue!

Loved the story. Caryssa is a FBI agent who is sent to Blackout Sierra to talk to the waitress who knows something about the restaurant or the delivery driver which is the same thing that Sierra is tracking. The first person she sees when the hood is removed is Reid. The man who was supposed to have died six years earlier and was talking a house, and family with her before he died. To say she had mixed feelings that he was alive was an understatement. She is happy that he is alive but totally angry. Reid will find himself unable to stay away from "Ryss" and will have a uphill battle to have her accept that their attraction for each other never died. This book is full of drama, danger, mixed chemistry and a happy ending. I enjoyed this book.

A new version of Ghosted. A blackout SEAL team chasing stolen military weapons. An FBI analyst who is excellent at solving puzzling cases assigned to help. A man six years dead and the woman who buried him thrown together to solve a case. He can’t believe his eyes. She can’t believe he’s alive. This one hits a boatload of romance tropes. A second chance at love with a SEAL/FBI spin and a found family all bundled up to pull this story together. There are mysteries. There is intrigue. There are movie nights with sprinkles. There is arts and crafts. There are memories of love and loss and hope of a future that may never be. There is danger. There are scattered clues that take all their skill to weave together. There is humor and tears and all maybe on the same page. Another great tale of ghosts that may keep us all safe.

Deep Cover sees River and Caryssa thrown back together when it feels completely impossible. The emotional turmoil Caryssa goes through will absolutely wreck you, and the sacrifices these men make to fight evil hit deep in your heart.
I found myself rooting so hard for these two to look past the hurt and grab their second chance. And did they take every opportunity to get steamy? Absolutely!
The ongoing mission keeps everyone scrambling and chasing tails, cranking up the danger and frustration at every turn. Yet through all the chaos, their love stands firm and the team always has each other’s backs.
If you’re looking for high octane military action, second chance romance, a tight knit found family, and a team of alpha soldiers who balance danger with humor hop on board.

Reid and Caryssa‘s story started 6 years ago and supposedly ended on the day he died. It restarts on the day she walks into SEAL Team Blackout Sierra and sees a deadman. This is one of Em Petrova’s best Bkackout books yet ! We get to see all of our favorite characters and the storyline of back from the dead to reunite with the woman you love is awesome! We also get the storyline of the missing hubs moved closer to being finished. The action in this one was on point in bed and out in the field ! The heat and history of the two main characters was palpable and I couldn’t help to root for Ryss to stay with Reid and the team. 5✨’s and I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Deep Cover is the 3rd book in the SEAL Team Blackout Sierra series and I strongly recommend reading the books in order, because Caryssa and Rivers' story ends shortly after the previous one ends and there's very little recap. It's a very moving tale which more than the others focuses on the emotions of not just the main characters, but all the people at Sierra base. Longing, love, a protector's guilt for perceived mistakes, desire, a touch of envy - they all accompany another step on the team's way to solve the puzzle of missing weapons. There's a happy ending for the couple, but a tiny cliffhanger as well, as the next mission is just around the corner. I received an early copy and am voluntarily leaving a review.

An easy, flowing romantic suspense as Special Operative Reid Rivers and FBI analyst Carysse Lane reconnect after six years of believing he was dead.
The old sparks return, quickly settling into the familiar closeness they once shared—until Carysse learns Reid suffered the same devastating loss she did, only he lost his entire family.
Their case begins with the murder of a delivery man tied to stolen weapons from Blackout Echo. As they race to uncover who ordered the hit and how deep the connections go, the action stays swift. Carysse refuses to sit on the sidelines, often ignoring orders, until she’s placed under protective custody with Sierra.
