Review / Release Blitz: Cloak of Red (Arrow Tactical #3) by Isabel Jolie


Cloak of Red by Isabel Jolie is now live!


In this modern-day Little Red Riding Hood, her past intertwines with her present in a dangerous game of make-believe with the one man she can’t resist.

ONCE UPON A TIME

Ten years ago, she was abducted.

After her rescue, he was hired by her father to protect her and keep her safe.

THE HUNT BEGINS

Now, he’s a CIA legend, and she’s a first-year officer. Their first op - gain the trust of another powerful couple. To do that, she needs to become the hot young wife to his successful older man.

All that matters is the mission. But it’s hard for him to see her as anything other than a fragile, broken teen, let alone his “trophy” wife.

But she’s no longer broken, and she sure as hell is nobody’s trophy.

She’ll play his “wife,” even as the lines between fantasy and reality blur. She may not need his protection, but the further down this path they travel, the more she finds herself craving him, even if it means risking everything she’s truly after.

And while he may be a legend, nothing he’s ever trained for could have prepared him for what’s happening between them.

The longer they remain undercover, the harder it becomes to distinguish between what’s real, what’s pretend, and what could get them both killed.

Cloak of Red is a former military, billionaire, age gap, forbidden romantic suspense, fake marriage romance between two CIA undercover officers. She's a billionaire heiress, and as a teen and college student, he was her bodyguard. Cloak of Red is the third standalone romance in the Arrow Tactical Series and is part of the Wolf trilogy, a modern-day take on Little Red Riding Hood. The first two in the trilogy do not need to be read in order to enjoy Cloak of Red.




MY REVIEW

Sophia, the teen that was abducted in the first two stories (Better to See You & Sure of One) is a grown woman now, and now on an undercover op with the man who was formerly her bodyguard after she was recovered. They're posing as a married couple to infiltrate a powerful cartel. This cartel not only has a very awful tie to her past, but someone in it may not truly be as entrenched in it as usual. Can Sophia and Fisher navigate their growing feelings, their op, and dealing with her very upset father?


When Fisher's requested for an op and it's with someone from his past, he's not sure if he's the right guy for the job, especially when he realizes the girl who had once been his charge is no longer a teen, but now a grown woman, a smart, intelligent and skilled woman. Posing as a married couple is going to test his will in so many ways.

I love the way this trilogy is wrapped up, with Sophia as an adult now, an ass kicking, awesome operative. And I'm so glad she is paired with someone her equal, someone who, after a minute, accepted her for her amazingness, and loved her equally for it. They went at a slow burn pace as they resisted then figured it out, a bit too slow burn for my tastes, but once they gave in, whew! I'm going to miss this world, hopefully Isabel will give us glimpses of all the couples in future writing.

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
