REVIEW
As in her other Guardian novels, Abramson tells a tale of suspense and romance. This book in the series of novels about a secret organization whose job is to protect the United States and its governmental entities, tells the story of an investigative journalist who is sent undercover by her general uncle and stumbles on a plot to steal and use a stealth drone. After an ally is murdered, Elle goes on the run where she meets up with Nolan, a guardian whose identity has been erased. As the two struggle to stay alive and unravel an increasing complicated conspiracy, they develop feelings for each other. Can they accomplish their mission and foil the plot or will their lives be forfeit? And even if they survive what kind of life could they hope to have together? Abramson has done a fine job creating interesting characters and a compelling plot. The twists and turns kept me turning the pages while I found it easy to empathize with the characters. A fine read for those who enjoy a nice dose of romance with their suspense.
