Mary Wells's Reviews > Lethal Game

It is hard to believe there are now 14 books in this series, and every one of them is just awesome. If you like thrillers with lots of twists and turns and a side of romance, these books are for you! Barbara Freethy is a talented writer who keeps you guessing, but also gives you great characters that get you really invested in their outcome. FBI agent Jason is chasing a Russian terrorist that killed his father 3 years ago. Alisa is a nurse, who survives an attempted carjacking while leaving work one evening, thanks to Jason & his partner just happening to be in the hospital parking garage checking out a lead on their case. Originally thought to be a random wrong place/wrong time attack, it soon becomes apparent that Alisa was the actual target, and she is somehow tied to Jason's terrorist. Jason & Alisa work together to solve the mystery, and give in to their undeniable attraction for each other. This book had another of Barbara's "wow, I didn't see that coming" moments, and I loved it!
