Lady Anastasia Whittig is a true lady in every sense—and an absolute master at code-breaking. She has never operated in the field, yet I feel confident this beautiful, talented agent can triumph in the face of even the most dire peril.
Her mission: Working with master spy Lucas Tyler, she must expose the mastermind who is attempting to bring down our secret organization. She must maintain a strictly professional relationship with the admittedly attractive Tyler throughout, for even a hint of scandal could compromise their operation.
Potential weaknesses: Ana can be most passionate when provoked. And Tyler is a seductive scoundrel who's never failed to win a lady's confidence.
The temptations of this man might prove irresistible . . .
Part of her Lady Spies series, Jenna Petersen’s Desire Never Dies unravels as Anastasia Whittig is forced into spy field work with the sexy, daring Lucas Tyler.
Yum.
She’s nursing big wounds and shrouded in a long and lengthy mourning. He’s cocky and unconvinced that the code-cracking desk jockey agent, Anastasia, will do anything but hinder the mission.
In turn, Anastasia is sparked into action and anger by his protests.
Somehow, I always end up gravitating to the exciting world of hist-ro female spies. Its a refreshing diversion from the norm, and you know you are going to be greeted by a heroine with a little meat (character) on her bones.
Jenna Petersen delivers. Desire Never Dies is filled with enough action, romance, reputation compromising, and internal conflict to please the most finicky of hist-ro readers.
While I haven’t yet gotten my hands on the other books in this series, I look forward to reading about Anastasia’s friends and partners in spy. This twist on Charlie’s Angels is fun and features some sexy scenes.
