His Toughest Call (The Pytheon Security series Book 2) by Joss Wood - Review

Synopsis:

Leah Hamilton’s wedding bells rang in an epic disaster. In six hours she was wed, betrayed, arrested and kissed blind and stupid by the one man she’s sworn to avoid: her brother’s best friend, ex-Special Forces soldier and Pytheon boss Seth Halcott, who’s raised her pulse for years. It was just one hot kiss from a man who lived across the world but two weeks later Seth returns and moves in as protection when Leah is targeted in the cross hairs of an international criminal bent on revenge.

Seth Halcott tells himself that Leah Hamilton is just a job, but she’s always been his Achilles heel. The brainy beauty with the feisty mouth has always tempted him to ditch his single status, but while Leah may feel like the one, she’s definitely off limits. He’s only back in her life to ensure her safety and spearhead the biggest bust of his life. Though it’s hard to stay focused when the woman starring in his dreams and sexual fantasies sleeps in the next room…

Leah and Seth discover that danger can be a powerful and passionate aphrodisiac, but will they be surprised to discover it can also lead to love?

My Review: 

A nail biting, page turning story.

Seth Halcott must face his past to gain control of his future.  He is back in Cape Town tracking down a man they call the recruiter, who recruits teens into cults or whatever else suits his needs.

Leah Hamilton, Seth's best friend’s sister, gets caught up in the case he is working on when the recruiter sees how important Leah is to Seth.  The recruiter will use Leah to get to Seth.

While working together, Seth and Leah have an unplanned affair.  Seth knows he is not good for any woman and definitely not good for Leah.  While Leah knows Seth will leave one day, she can't help hoping he might be willing to settle down with her.  Will Seth and Leah be able to overcome all of the obstacles that stand in their way? 

I enjoyed seeing Seth and Leah's love for each other bloom and how they fought for each other regardless of everything that stood in their way.  Overall, this is a good story, but it did end with a cliffhanger.
