Summary

Croy Esca is a fixer at Torus Intercession, paid to guard, advocate for, and help those in need of the services his boss, Jared Colter, provides. Professionally, Croy goes in, gets the job done, and doesn't allow for anything that might resemble interest - which mirrors the way he handles his personal life as well.

When Croy is assigned to act as bodyguard to a billionaire during a long weekend trip to Las Vegas, he expects another in and out job made all the more tedious by the company he'll be keeping, and his loathing of Sin City. What he ends up with, however, is far more than he bargained for. 

FBI Special Agent Dallas Bauer is good at what he does; some might even say he's consumed by his work, to the point of insomnia and at the cost to anything resembling a full life. Then Croy Esca comes crashing into his life, and it doesn't take long before he's struck by how desperate he is to make sure the fixer doesn't become the one that got away. 

When Croy's assignment evolves into something so much more dangerous and complicated than he could have ever predicted, and his and Dallas's lives collide, the fixer finds himself in a fix. One Croy is not altogether sure he wants to escape.

I love Mary Calmes books, including this one, but the narrator ruined it for me. His stilted delivery, his snide inflections, and poor voices made this almost impossible to finish. I will be sure to watch for him on other books I love and do my best to avoid him.

Very disappointed in the narration

It was cute but filled with intrigue and action. Good story building and great narrating (though I am biased because I really like the narrator).

Loved it

I think this book would have been better if it had a different narrator. A military type book or a thriller better fit the style of John solos narration, but definitely not romance.

I felt like the personalities of the two MCs flipped insecurities. First, one MC was the one being taken care of in the beginning of the book and his insecurities were highlighted and then in the latter half of the book the situation was flipped.
I know this isn’t supposed to be a deep love story filled with a ton of action and it’s more fluff but it was disappointing that things just seem to be so superficial or not thought out.

The Thriller/action part of the book was sad. Again, it may just be how it was read, but it felt like the plot was made up by someone young who was brainstorming what they think would be interesting and their ideas lack intrigue, depth, a sense of cunning and definitely lacked any sense of procedure when it comes to the alphabet agencies (FBI, DEA, etc)

The story was lacking and the narrator was just sad
