About this ebook

A USA Today Bestseller!

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julie Ann Walker continues her red-hot Black Knights Inc. series in rough-and-tumble Peru

"The Man" is back

Dan "The Man" Currington is back in fighting form with a mission that takes him four thousand miles south of BKI headquarters, high in the Andes Mountains of Peru. He's hot on the trail of a rogue CIA agent selling classified government secrets to the highest bidder, when Penni DePaul arrives on the scene. Suddenly the stakes are higher, and keeping Penni safe becomes Dan's number one priority.

And this time she's ready

A lot has changed since former Secret Service Agent Penni DePaul last saw Dan. Now a civilian, she's excited about what the future might hold. But before she can grab onto that future with both hands, she has to tie up some loose ends—namely, Dan Currington, the man she just can't forget. And a secret that's going to change both their lives—if they can stay alive, that is.

Ratings and reviews

What a fast paced and engaging novel! Walker combines suspense with subversion and plotting to create a remarkable and unmistakable BKI novel. Backed up by chemistry and characters you really get up close and personal with this story is one to remember. The lingo dialogue really makes these characters. It’s so easy to see and hear them. Dan’s confusion over feelings, beliefs, and events become apparent, taking his larger than life personal and making him real, human. The dichotomy between super secret, blacker than black ops and a true romantic really makes Dan stand out in this series. The way that Penni quotes various pieces of literature and movies in her inner monologue had me liking her even more. It gave me lots of insight into her personality. Suspense and chemistry abound throughout this novel. Walker grabbed my attention and held it throughout. I could barely put this one down. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Dan "The Man" thought he'd never love again after his wife was killed, until he met Penni. Penni was on his last assignment ,as a Secret Service Agent, that went horribly wrong. Now three months later she's come looking for him but he's on a mission. She tracks him down and gets caught up in his mission to bring in the CIA traitor. So in between hunting the traitor, they are dodging bullets and hopping on planes to get back to the States. She wants a relationship and someone to love and be loved and she hopes Dan feels the same. Fast paced, extremely HOT, and a great assortment of characters. Loved the chemistry between Dan and Penni. Can't wait for Chelsea and Z's book ( hoping there us one ).

Dan and Penni make a good couple. Dan convincing Penni to be a family is one of the high points of the book.
