Review:

A Seal’s Mission by Rachel Kall is the 2nd book in her Love and Scandal series. I really enjoyed the first book in this series, and was happy to read this book. Kall continues with another fabulous romance suspense story.

A Seal’s Mission begins with our heroine, Rowena Murphy, a journalist, on assignment in Afghanistan. One night she is kidnapped, but she is soon rescued by Navy Seals. Rowena is an investigative reporter, who has been working on a major conspiracy involving the government and secret weapons. 6 months after her rescue, she suspects her life may be in danger, and that the kidnapping was part of the government trying to stop her. She tries to investigate the Navy Seal who helped her, so that she can thank him for saving her life, and one day he shows up at her door.

Scott Ranger, is our hero and the hot Navy Seal who helped rescue Rowena. He discovers her trying to research him and goes to find out why. At first Scott isn’t sure whether to believe Rowena about the government and the weapons, but she shows him proof that makes him pay closer attention. While he is still talking to Rowen, there is an attempt on her life, with Scott saving her again. At this point, Scott decides to help Rowena to find out who is behind the murder attempts, and the conspiracy.

What follows is a very exciting suspenseful story, with Scott and Rowena not knowing who to trust, as they discover how deep this conspiracy is. Scott begins to fall for Rowena, as she does too, but she is hesitant to become involved with any man, having been hurt long ago. This turns into a beautiful romance, as Rowena and Scott were a great couple. Also, Kall has created some very good secondary characters, whom I would love to learn more about in future books.

To give any more information would be spoilers, since there were so many twists throughout this exciting story. A Seal’s Mission is a thrilling suspenseful tale, filled with action, danger, betrayals, and a wonderful romance. Rachel Kall has written another wonderful addition to her Love and Scandal series.

Review:

Race to Kill by Rachel Kall is the first book in her new A Love and Scandal series.          Race to Kill is a romance suspense story, and it is the first book I have read by Rachel     Kall, and I am impressed.  The story was excellently written and put together so well.        From the beginning the story caught my attention, and for the rest of the way I could not      put it down.  It was an exciting, suspenseful, interesting,and sexy story with a political campaign background.

Vivian Reese is our wonderful heroine.  Viv worked in the campaign for a Senator            running for President.  An exciting time for Viv, who is early on pushed to the forefront          of the campaign, when her mentor and boss suffers a heart attack. 

Marcus Locke is an FBI agent, formerly a Delta Force soldier, who goes undercover, as    private security, to investigate campaign funds fraud.  While he secretly investigates the people involved in the Senator’s campaign, Marcus finds himself becoming           enamored of Viv. Things quickly take a turn for the worse though, as Viv has a stalker      and Marcus is assigned by the Secret Service to protect her.  Eventually, their sexual         chemistry will also bring them together romantically, and they made a great sexy couple.

There are so many twists and surprises along the way, as besides Viv, other members of   the campaign become involved in the mystery.  When the President’s life is threatened,    the danger becomes very real, and way beyond a stalker or finance crime.   Viv and     another member of the campaign team are suspected and Marcus, not only must protect   Viv, but change his direction of the investigation to find the truth behind these attempts to    sabotage the campaign for both parties.

What I loved about this book was how well, Kall wrote the story, with the campaign         storyline, and the overall exciting action, and yet gave us enough of this romance to find      ourselves invested into this couple. Both Marcus and Viv, were smart, savvy and great       characters. Kall created some great secondary characters, especially Viv’s ex, Scott, who was a former Navy Seal, and I enjoyed how he and Marcus over time became unlikely      friends. The two of them worked together to save the day.  Race to Kill was a   wonderful story, filled with action and suspense, not to mention a great romance. What more could you ask for in a book? I really enjoyed Rachel Kall’s writing style, and will happily read her again.
