Donna 5 Stars

I could not put this book down! At first I wasn’t sure about Zoe and her ultra-self-esteem issues, but I’m glad I got past that. It was a heartfelt romance that showcased Joe’s romantic side, as well as his patience. It wasn’t a super sexy novel, but it was gratifying all the same. The Kelly family banter is always fun and showcases how close knit they are during the good times and the bad. The story didn’t hold as much danger as the others did, but it sure kept me riveted. I loved it.

Review: After the Storm (A KGI Novel) by Maya Banks

After the Storm (A KGI Novel) by Maya Banks
Publication Date: January 7, 2014
REVIEWED BY: Reading in Pajamas/ Donna
RATED: 5 Stars

20131205-150748.jpg

BOOK DESCRIPTION:

The Kelly Group International (KGI): A super-elite, top secret, family-run business.

Qualifications: High intelligence, rock-hard body, military background.

Mission: Hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering. Handling jobs the U.S. government can’t…

Over the years, Donovan Kelly has fought relentlessly for justice, women and children always holding a special place in his heart. Working side by side with his brothers, Donovan has witnessed firsthand the toll it’s taken—physically, mentally, and emotionally—on his loved ones, and the innocent lives caught in the crossfire. What he never expects is for his next mission to happen right on his home turf—or for it to take a very personal turn.

Picturesque Kentucky Lake is the perfect place for a soul in search of safe harbor. A beautiful stranger has arrived—desperate, breathless, and on the run from a dark past closing in on her and the younger siblings she has vowed to protect. Donovan must now draw on every resource at his disposal—if he wants to save a woman and the children who may prove to be his destiny.

REVIEW:

I have been looking forward to this installment of the KGI series. I love Donovan and wondered what kind of a woman would snag him. Eve did not disappoint. She was a desperate woman in danger and in need of the help only the Kelly’s could give. I love the way the KGI group rallies behind each other and overcomes all obstacles. Their loyalty and fun banter is always enjoyable. The romance started tender and soon steamed up quite nicely. I like how it wove seamlessly in with the danger and tension. I could not put this book down and read it in one sitting. The only bad part about reading this book is now I have to wait for the next one.
