Review: Secret Maneuvers - Jessie Lane

Secret Maneuvers (Ex Ops, #1)Secret Maneuvers by Jessie Lane
My rating: 4 of 5 Fairies


Secret Maneuvers successfully captured my attention and held it through the entire story.

I enjoyed the concept, the writer's style and the characters. Both Bobby and Belle we likeable and had elements of realism to their reactions, mannerisms and relationship. This is an aspect that I especially enjoyed.

The was a good level of drama and a whole array of tension. The heat between the two main characters was hot.

A thoroughly enjoyable read and a series that I can happily continue reading.

Secret Maneuvers (Ex Ops #1)

by 

Librarian Note: Alt/new cover edition for ISBN# 9781301452095.
Some mistakes from the past haunt us forever... unless fate steps in with a second chance.

One 'dear John' letter haunts Bobby Baker's every living moment. It’s the letter he stupidly wrote to his high school sweetheart, Belle, right after he left to join the Army. The letter that he told her that he wasn't so sure if they were ready for forever yet. But before he can let her know that the letter, and his second thoughts, are nothing but a mistake, she up and disappears from the small Georgia town they were both raised in.

Fifteen years later, Belle unknowingly walks back into Bobby's life when her job as an ATF Agent forces her to work with a group of men secretly headed by the CIA to help her track down whoever is involved in funneling black market weapons to a drug cartel in Mexico.

Bobby will use this mission to try and soothe Belle's hurt feelings while proving to her that their love is still meant for forever. He'll use every dirty trick he's learned since he joined the Army to maneuver her back into his life for the long haul. But Belle's not making it easy as she keeps him at arm's length in the hopes that mistakes of her own never come to light.
