Cadence Freedman is a newly minted intelligence agent on her way to Moscow. Her assignment: gather information that could prevent potential nuclear warfare - if, indeed, such intel exists. Cadence, however, hosts a secret mission all her own. To achieve her goals, she must cross paths with Demyan Boykov, Russian Prime Minister Osip Danshov's personal bank and one of the country's most dangerous public figures. Instantly drawn to him, Cadence realizes that sticking to regulation might not be as easy as she hoped - and that Boykov might be enough to tempt her from the straight and narrow.
Demyan Boykov lives beneath the rigid control of the state. Of all those beneath the facade of democracy, he knows most intimately what Russia's past has cost its people. Cadence Freedman provides a welcomed distraction from the monotony of his prison, and her body offers a plethora of delights he longs to sample. When the young agent seeks his secrets however, their ambitions clash and they find themselves collaborating in a plot with thousands of lives in the balance - as well as the sanctity of their hearts.

So this is the part were I'm supposed to talk about myself. I write so many stories but I often I have a hard time telling my own. Funny how that works.
My name is Cristina Grenier and I have been writing stories for as long as I could remember . I'm a sucker for romance. I draw from past experiences and from others around me when I write. I enjoy creating characters that everyone can relate to.
Besides writing, I also enjoy painting and figure drawing. I'm a bit of a homebody, my ideal night consists of a chilled bottle of wine, some pasta and Netflix. I really hope you enjoy the stories I create. If you want to keep updated on my new releases and frequent FREE book giveaways, please subscribe to my email group at www.cristinagrenier.com
Okay...I originally was going to give this book three stars...why? Because as others have stated, the whole "dark skinned" "dark haired" woman seriously got on my nerves. I didn't need to be reminded what her complexion was. Also (and I'm being nitpicky here) why did all the Russians last name end in "ov"? How about..."ski", "off", or even "ova". Anyhoo, despite the little annoyances, Ms. Greener weaved a good tail off suspense and romance. Sidenote: So I guess after three months, Cadence curly dark hair grew to her waist!? Did anyone else catch that?
I so love espionage thrillers mixed in with hot sex and intrigue....this in my opinion is Cristina's best written book...the action,suspense,romance is written expertly...like you are watching a Jason Bourne movie ...except the heroine is a black female..hope there is a sequel...Osip wants revenge badly...now that his trusted pet Demyan has defected to the U.S....looking forward to seeing if Demyan and Credance romance continues..
It has been awhile since I read anything by Ms. Grenier, so I had forgotten how well she writes. This book was keep-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat good!! Cadence was sexy, determined and dangerous, and Demyan was damaged, powerful and sexy! Together, they were explosive! Whew! It's been awhile since I've read a book that had me holding my breath! Good job, Ms. Grenier!
This was by far one of the best Cristina has written so far. Edge of the seat ,nail biting, butterflies on your stomach kind of reading. The characters were highly developed. And the back story about Danyen, brought you right up to speed and where you needed to be. And it was a full story with no cliffhangers. An amazing read!!
I decided to give Cristina Grenier's book a chance after reading a review on Facebook by someone in the Interracial Romance Readers Group. Let me just say that I was not disappointed.
The chemistry she created between Demyan and Cadence was exhilarating. I can't wait to read another book written by Cristina.
I Received an ARC of this story for an honest review
I enjoyed reading this one I just couldn’t put my tablet down . (A huge pet peeve of mine is this: using the term of dark skinned or dark haired frequently! That is soooo annoying )
Why so many references to "the young woman", "dark haired woman", "dark haired man" etc.? Just "she" or "he" would have sufficed. I was really distracted.
But the hero is a yummy Russian alpha and the love scenes are hot.
To me this book was different than what most of Christina's books are. I really enjoyed it. The ending was not the normal HEA .....But then again it was. I think this is one of her better works
I like the way it held my interest the whole time. I felt like it took me though all of the emotions and at the end leaving me happy. It was action packed and suspenseful. It was a good read.
This book had mystery, love, and suspense all in it. And the H and h had great chemistry in the story. Author did a great job with this story and this is the second book I read from this author, will make sure to add her in my to read list
