Even Assassins Need Love

Justin Mallory is an assassin. But he’s a good guy. Seriously.

After selling his soul to the CIA for a few years, he’s working for himself. Now he’s choosing the jobs. And he always works alone.

But he can’t go solo this time.

Gabriel Prescott is an efficient, cold-blooded killer.

Justin doesn’t want anything to do with him, but his skills are exactly what he needs to complete this contract.

Bullets and secret meetings force them to depend on each other.

And one hot, frantic night together leads to a hidden sweetness.

Could they have something more?

Author’s Note: As a gift to readers, I have expanded the original Deadly Lover by nearly 20,000 words, giving readers a deeper understanding of Justin and Gabriel. Furthermore, I have added the short story “Lover Calling” to the special edition …

Adorable assassin, grumpy ex-spy, great rivals to lovers arc

I love this book. It's one of my comfort reads that I re-read regularly, just like the entire series and its spin-offs.

You see, Justin is so adorably snarky, and it's great fun to see grumpy Gabriel slowly come out of his shell, despite the considerable trauma in his past (which will be explored further in the series).

Their job goes wrong in many, many ways, but that only makes them more determined to finish it. I love that for Justin it's not just about the money, and that Gabriel finds that intriguing and attractive.

It's also not a terribly dark story (less so than Unbreakable Bonds), mostly because Justin cracks so many jokes and does his best to wring a smile out of Gabriel.

Definitely recommend this series if you like adventure, romance, good assassins and a grumpy ex-spy.
