In Too DEEP - A USA Today Bestselling Novel!
Sometimes Trust Can Get You Killed.
Deep watched the newscaster play the video of Lacey fighting off the FBI agent and escaping from a murder scene the night before. Now, she's turning herself over to the police. What Deep’s practiced eye saw in the video was a highly-choreographed crime. But somehow Lacey had thwarted the professionals’ plans.
Enmeshed in a mystery that includes the FBI, the CIA, and a tangle of interconnected international crimes, Deep and Lacey work to discover who plays the good guy and who plays the bad guy in a gray world where right and wrong easily overlap.
Lives depend on them.
JACK Be Quick
The Prayer On Her Lips Is Jack Be Quick
It’s been months since ex-Navy SEAL Jack McCullen last saw his fiancée, Suz Molloy. He was on the other side of the world involved in a grueling black ops mission for Iniquus Corporation at the behest of the US government. Mission fail meant a special flight home, and an ambulance ride to the hospital where Suz should have been waiting for him.
When Jack rouses from his surgery to find Suz missing, he knows something is very wrong. Led by the psychic “knowings” of his Iniquus colleague, Lynx, Jack risks everything as he desperately tries to reach Suz in time to thwart the terrorists’ plot and save her.
This time, his mission is for more than love of country; it’s for the love of his life - his heart and soul.
An action adventure romance with a psychic twist.
InstiGATOR - a USA Today Bestselling Novel
A Deadly Game Gambles American Lives.
A hardened war hero, Gator Aid Rochambeau is on a collision course with fate. Retired as a Marine Raider, Gator is now an Iniquus elite operator. He's been assigned to the Davidson mission. As the job gets underway, he is unprepared for the psychic confusion that swirls through his system. New to his psychic experiences, he reaches out to fellow Strike Force member, Lynx, for information, only to discover she too is battling a strange vortex of information. The one thing they both understand is that lives are on the line.
Special ops pilot Christen Davidson receives her mission orders. Her day just went from horrifying to something far worse. Fellow operatives are in danger. Christen is desperate to fly a rescue mission. Instead, she’s ordered to act as an asset in a high-stakes international game. She didn’t join the military to play dress-up, but she can’t disobey, even though this assignment is far outside of her comfort zone.
For this mission, there is no place to run and nowhere to hide from the men who have their eye on a billion-dollar deal, and the only ones standing in their way is this improbable team. The gamble they’re making could mean life or death, but the reward could be so much more!
Bestselling romantic suspense author Fiona Quinn brings you the unexpected story of political intrigue, espionage, murder, and mystery playing out on a world stage.

Wow Gator and Christen, not what I expected at all, it was so much more...
I was totally mesmerised from beginning to end, even though the story can be read as a standalone it still links with others in the series but not in a way you HAVE to read them in order. Fiona writes explosive scenes with brilliant plot twists you won't see coming, I held my breath a number of times during this book and wow the ending.... just awesome.

In Too Deep
I suspect I have a very different outlook on this book, and some of the characters in it, than if I hadn’t already read several of the more recent books in this world. This book is political thriller at it’s twisty-est, most mind-bending best. I wasn’t feeling the sparks of romance between our leading couple the way I usually do with the author’s work, though. Considering everything that Lacey and Deep are navigating, I can understand how their chemistry could get buried under the terror and immediacy of all the obstacles they’re facing. This book makes me want to start over from the beginning and read everything even remotely related to Iniquus.
Jack Be Quick
There’s a special kind of surreality to read this book looking back on everything our world has been through the last two-ish years. Especially watching fake troll-news in action. I think I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: I’m somewhat terrified of the author’s crystal ball and her ability to foreshadow the things we’re about to live through. This book has all the political thrills and romantic suspense I’ve come to expect, but at its heart, I feel like this story was about Suz’s journey of self-discovery. Learning what she was capable of, what she valued most, and the lengths she was prepared to go to in order to protect and defend those values.
Instigator
I’ve loved Gator from the moment I first read about him. I knew it would take someone very special to capture and keep his attention. She may not spell it right, but I’m honored to share him with this uniquely talented Christen. It’s fascinating to come back to the start of a plotline that you’ve already experienced so much of the aftermath from. And many of the most recent books in this world have grown from the events that happen here. Every time I finish reading about one of the Iniquus members, I want to go back to the beginning and reread everything the author has written about them.

IN TOO DEEP
Lacy sitting at a bar waiting for her boyfriend, when a stranger comes in.
She notices him watching her, upon leaving, he whispers “ to trust no one and to run”. Someone killed him, she wanted answers, of what he slipped her. A.boyfriend, who had set her up or was he undercover to protect her. Intriguing of why, good characters
JACK BE QUICK
Jack assigned as a special operative to Strike Force, which puts him in constant danger, and he loves the adrenaline rush. While Suz wanted the quiet mediative life, she didn’t want to keep doing this. Seeing him the hospital, rehab once again. A nursery rhythm and then Lynx, Jack whispers. She is new, and trouble seems to follow her, what’s with the rhythm. A tense filled plot, a child was he a target, that caused the tragic at the school where Sue taught or was she. Good story.
InstiGATOR
Christen’s Mission was getting the special operators into her heli and into the fray. Part of the Night Stalkers, rare for a woman, and she earned it.
She was a team player, no pressure, these order wasn’t something she
wanted, the precision flier..Never trained for this, it becomes a nightmare, lives are at stake. Gator volunteers to help, and we now have a psychic thriller, it is tense, full of action.
Each could be read alone, all connected by the special op’s. Great stories.

Warm and Fuzzy. . . Welllll
Depends on your definition of warm and fuzzy. If you are a woman who is very comfortable in a so-called man's kind of work, but you remain a lady in the deep, not the superficial, sense of the word, you may well find this book warm and fuzzy. Quinn is an amazing writer. She brings together combat, espionage, psi powers, and a collection of strong women and the men who are strong enough to love those women instead of feeling threatened or diminished by them.
Quinn writes what I feel better than I can write it. These books are worthy additions to her canon.

Fantastic Series
I’m so loving these series by Fiona Quinn. Each book has a good plot with lots of twists that keep me wanting to read from cover to cover with no break. This makes it difficult for me to get other stuff done. For me there is a good balance between action and romance and not a lot of gratuitous sex. I also like that you follow the same core individuals from book to book with the addition of new characters being added along the way. I initially began reading the books out of order but am now going in chronological order. Again love this author and hope she never stops writing.

This is the 2nd box set that I have read from this author. I also read her box set which had the 1st stories of each series.
The stories all contain information from the previous one and follow up with additional adventures each of the individual teams of Iniquus is involved with. This story also has contributions from Lynx which was the 1st set that I have read.
The characters are well written and you won't lack for action in any of her books.
I recommend that you read this series as well as her other ones. I know I will.

What a trio!!
In too Deep starts with a girl walks into a bar, waits for her date, gets grabbed by a guy with a knife in his back, then by an FBI agent... And things go Down from there!
Jack's story starts sad, gets grim, explodes, then goes go South America with a seriously busted up knee.
Gator now, we know he has a sixth sense, but when he meets D-Day? Wow! And she's there under duress from the CIA, with Gator and Blaze protecting her. Only she doesn't know they're the good guys. And the group her dad and brother brought together for meetings? Yikes!

Strike Force
After reading books 1-4 of the Lynx series, I had to continue with this KU library box set. It follows three of the Strike Force team operators as they fight elements who are working against the U.S. and Iniquus as it's agent. Lynx and Striker continue to make appearances, with Lynx taking a more prominent role as the team's "puzzler". With these series, Fiona Quinn has become one of my top go to authors for military suspense and romance.

Addicted.
I am addicted to these series of books. You get Romance, you get the Mystery ( who is behind the evil actions) but most of all you get so many wonderful characters that you fall in love with. I like the subject matter, the way the books are well written and most of all that you get to meet new characters while still keeping up with
prior men and women from Iniquus.
I recommend this author.

I'd read a precursor of this series. These were better, especially in terms of ability to stand alone. The first was the best written of them. The later ones have some odd wrong word errors here and there and other moments of awkwardness. But normal people barely notice stuff like someone's bowls cramping and using a ground matt, so most will like these more than I do.

2 outta 3 ain't bad.
I really did not like Suz, although she eventually proved she could be good for Jack. But, lordy, what a whiny loser!
As for the other two books, I thought they worked, even though Gator worked really hard to match up to Suz. Fortunately, Cristin held strong!
All in all, I do recommend these Strike Force books.

Another great story. I have read 3 box sets and I like them all. This author has a very unique style on building the character's as the storyline progresses,keeps everyone connected via strike force. The plots are always complex and varied. Love lynx as the main thread with her psychic ability. Never get tired of the series, I like authors that make you think while you follow the story telling.

Great mystery's in this box set. The romance was very well done. The story was very well written in. But did I miss something at the end of book 3? Is there a sequel to the third story. It felt like it didn't have an ending.
