Book Description, Modified from NetGalley:
In On the Run, IT Specialist Daria Nevsky is a highly skilled FBI agent with the ability to hack any computer. She must go on the run to find out who wants her dead--and Dr. Ryker Donahue refuses to let her do it alone.
In Deadly Objective, physical therapist Emily Dixon and Secret Service Agent Liam Harper are committed to keeping their relationship professional. But when the vice president's son enters the crosshairs of a killer, some lines will have to be crossed in order to keep him safe.
In Caught in the Crosshairs, former Army PSYOPS officer Ari Blackman investigates CIA officer Claudia Gallegos after Claudia is implicated in the murder of a Saudi prince. But to prevent a coup that would put America at risk, they'll have to learn to trust each other--before it's too late.
My Review:
Targeted has three romantic suspense novellas. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable suspense collection.
"On the Run" continues Daria's story. Yay! She has to survive while figuring out why the bad guys are after her. She knows of Ryker, and he helps her. The focus was on the suspense, and the romance was sort of, "oh, and they fell in love." They worked well together, appreciated the other's abilities, and Ryker challenged Daria to accept help from her friends rather than trying to do it all on her own (even as capable as she is).
"Deadly Objective" put two opposites together, yet they worked well together. Liam loves the outdoors; Emily likes high civilization. They both love to read and can deal with the difficult VP's son. When the VP's family is targeted, they take the son on a remote camping trip thinking it might be safer for him. Emily takes it all with a good attitude. Liam see her worth and admires her. They both use their unique abilities to help protect the VP's son. Fun.
"Caught in the Crosshairs" started off with Ari being sent to confirm that Claudia didn't kill the prince since she broke protocol by going to the prince's house. They help solve why the prince asked for her help and who killed him. She's repeatedly attacked by the bad guys, so Ari helps protect her. Claudia's challenged to look past his good-looks and skilled agent reputation and get to know the real man. She's also reluctant to get into a relationship since it'd add more loved ones that can be used against her. But Ari is very good looking and nice... I suppose Ari's interested in her because she didn't immediately fall under his charm?
