Blurb: From New York Times best-selling author Stephanie Tyler, writing as S. E. Jakes….
Everyone knows that Prophet – former Navy SEAL, former CIA spook, and full-time pain in the ass – works alone. But his boss at Extreme Escapes, Ltd. has just assigned Proph a new partner and a case haunted by ghosts from Proph’s past. Suddenly he has to confront both head-on.
Tom Boudreaux – failed FBI agent, failed sheriff, full-time believer in bad luck – is wondering why the head of a private contracting firm has hunted him down to offer him a job. Still, he’s determined to succeed this time, despite being partnered with Prophet, EE’s most successful, lethal, and annoying operative, on a case that resurrects his own painful past.
Together Prophet and Tom must find a way to take down killers in the dangerous world of underground cage matches while fighting their own dangerous attraction.
When they find themselves caught in the crossfire, these two loners must trust each other and work together to escape their ghosts…or pay the price.

Reviewer: Cat
Review: I am going to admit I have not read this series and do wish I had. The advantage of reading over listening is that you can go back and read over parts easier. There is so much going on in this book that I am going to skip the run down, but I will add in a few more points.
Prophet is also engaged in a game of cat and mouse or should I say steal the couch with a spook that lives in the same building. While this is a fun part of the story and Cillian does have a larger role later in the book it is hard to figure out how Prophet keeps doing this with casts on both arms.
Which brings me to another point, we begin with Prophet in casts and there are other couples mentioned later in this book which makes me wonder if this is a spinoff. Now having said, that I really liked the book, like I said there is a lot going on, it seems confusing in parts, but by the end some of it falls in place other parts are tied up in a very intriguing cliffhanger that does its job making you want the next book!
Now for the audio part. I enjoyed listening to this book. Adam North is a good narrator. I will have to say I did not like his Tom voice at all. It didn’t sound Cajun and didn’t add anything to his character. The other character voices, the distinctions were slight but I think enough to tell them apart. However, the actual telling of the story was very good and the sex scenes were smokin’ hot.
If you like espionage, secret agents, spies, lots of twists and turns, and some very hot man-sex this is definitely for you.
