Into Temptation by Jeanie London

Joshua Benedict fixed problems for a living. Things like retrieving the White Star from the New York Police evidence locker his mysterious boss. That’s why MI6 assigned their best agent, Lindy Gardner, to the case. But Lindy didn’t expect to feel such an attraction to Joshua. She knew it was wrong, since theirs was a relationship that could never be. Yet, when Joshua left a trail for Lindy, Lindy couldn’t resist. It was game of hide and seek, where the stakes were love and death.

Like the previous White Star books, this one captured my attention almost from the beginning. The ending was pretty obvious - I saw it fairly early in the book, but it was well handled. There was just enough doubt on how it would end, that it didn’t really hurt the story. The game of hide and seek worked really well as it allowed the hero and heroine to pit their skills against each other in a bigger game of one-upmanship giving a lot of insight into the characters. Finally, the details Jeanie painted were incredible and worthy of a best selling novel. Even if you’re not following the White Star series, I’d recommend this book as one of the best Blazes of the year.
