Steve Spaneas doesn’t have a clue.
Who’d have thought that the woman who stumbles her way into his gym, looking and acting so very much like a street person off her meds, is really a CIA case officer whose memory has been obliterated by experimental drugs used by some very bad people?
And seriously, who’d have thought that her attempts to untangle the few clues she’s got would lead him right into her world of spies and counterspies, death and deception–and holy cow, stockpiled nuclear weapons?
But Steve had better figure out who he trusts–his years of experience on the streets, or the heart of a gritty woman determined to reclaim herself–and he’d better figure it out fast. Because suddenly there’s a body out behind the gym, surveillance teams lurking, and a series of unsavory goons following the trail of a woman temporarily named Mickey right through his life.
Hidden Steel was my first download for Kindle – in fact, I downloaded it before I bought my Kindle and started reading it on my phone. It was a free download, and it was what convinced me to buy a Kindle. I decided that if I could get free books as good as this, then I wanted more!
I thoroughly enjoyed Hidden Steel, from start to finish. I loved the way that Mickey was constantly remembering new things about herself, and the way she kept bursting into song and dance. The story moves along at a fast pace, and, although people are killed or wounded, there is not too much blood and gore. Both Steve and Mickey’s sense of humour in the face of adversity was brilliant and I really enjoyed the banter between them. The relationship between them builds slowly into romance, but never gets soppy.
I would recommend Hidden Steel to anybody who likes books with a mix of excitement and romance, without getting too heavy.
