Former SEAL Logan Rodgers and MI6 operative Olivia Hamilton met when the cover op Logan was leading went awry. Olivia had dedicated two years of her life getting close to a terrorist, and it all went up in smoke when the US Navy’s equipment failed. They are soon recruited by ICE, International Clandestine Enterprise, a secret NATO group, dedicated to eradicating terrorism. Olivia suffers from PTSD, no wonder, with what she experienced in her last undercover mission. Logan and Olivia are both alpha personalities who would clash to death, were it not for the inescapable attraction they find hard to fight when they are thrown together on their first mission for ICE as husband and wife…
Amy Jarecki is a fabulous historical fiction author, and Hunt For Evil is her first foray into contemporary romantic suspense, and she owns it! I can hardly imagine the amount of research that went into this book. Ms. Jarecki is known for her terrific characters, and Olivia and Logan are as complex as they come. I love that Olivia is a real kick-butt heroine! The author has crafted a fantastic spy agency and the whole environment is reminiscent of James Bond, Jason Bourne or Mission Impossible. I loved that Iceland is where the agency’s headquarters is located, the various locations where the action takes places, the fabulous gadgets, heart-stopping action, and both Olivia and Logan who could qualify as deadly weapons. There is a wonderful cast of international secondary characters, and I cannot wait to see who will be the next stars and what their missions will be.
As a suspense story, Hunt For Evil ranks with the best of them, the plot is air-tight, the pace is relentless, plot twists abound; it never stops! As for the romance, I would have preferred more of a slow burn; I found Olivia and Logan mentally drooling over each other for so long a bit tiring, but once the action seriously started, I got over that quickly. There is surgery involved at some point, I was dreading how it would end, but thank goodness, Ms. Jarecki handled it masterfully. The writing is excellent, so are the dialogues, and apart from the fact that Hunt For Evil is a superb action story, I think what impressed me the most is how well Amy Jarecki – who is known for her historical romances – effortlessly switched genres. One would think that the author’s specialty was romantic suspense! Hunt For Evil is a smashing debut to a new series!
