I was in the mood for a good action book so I plucked this from my to be read list.
Bureau of American Defense (BAD) is shadow agency responsible for counter-terrorism in the US. Sydney Westbrook (who annoyingly was repeatedly referred to as an Angelina Jolie look alike) is looking for a new partner to help take down a target. J.D. Steele is a sniper in prison for shooting at his commanding officer and is perfect for her job. She proceeds to recruit him. She is known as a literal ball buster and frigid, and he is a major attitude problem, but she warms up quickly to Steele.
I initally liked the storyline at first, but got frustrated with the Angelina Jolie comparisions. The plot really didn’t hold together too well either. I liken this to a watered down Brockmann Troubleshooter type story. Brockmann does a much better job.
Grade C-
Cover: The inside step was sort of hot.

Dammit! I’ve got this in my tbr. I won’t be digging it out anytime soon.
But you’ve gotta love Tee and Joe… that’s the problem with SK… she has really good secondary characters that make you want to read their books.
I definately love Joe and Tee. Can’t wait to read their story.
