Synopsis:

As Director of The War Office, Stuart McKenzie, has proven himself capable of making difficult decisions in times of crisis and keeping government secrets safe. When he walks in on someone ransacking his study he quickly moves to apprehend them, only to be tossed on his back as the burglar escapes into the night. Cassie’s father has become a pawn in the fight against Napoleon. When the enemy kidnaps him, she will do anything it takes to get him back – including stealing government secrets from Stuart McKenzie, the Director of the War Office. When Cassie is caught, she reluctantly agrees to Mack’s assistance as there is something far more sinister going on. As Mack embarks on his mission, he will find that enemies are often closer than one would think and that sometimes your ally will come in the least likely form. When passion erupts between Mack and Cassie, they find their lives forever altered. But just as they believe their lives to be free of danger, a new threat is lurking about, promising to rip their happiness away from them. Will they be able to trust each other enough to defeat this new threat, or will they be torn apart for all eternity?

About the Author

Tammy Jo Burns
From a young age I could always be found carrying around books to read while watching my grandmother's soap operas with her. I read anything and everything I could get my hands on and even made up skits and stories for my friends and me to act out. Once I outgrew the children's and YA books, my mom introduced me to an entirely new world - contemporary romance. Upon discovering I had a love for history I began devouring historical romances. One day, sitting in a college British History class, something the professor said made me think, I wonder. I quickly called mom (also a writer) and ran the idea by her. After being told, "Of course you can do it, you're my daughter," the rest, as they say, is history. I currently share my love of reading with the next generation as a high school librarian, and share my personal life with my demanding dog trapped in a cat's body, Ajax.

MY REVIEW:
★★★★★
      
This is the 2nd book in a series, but reads easily as a stand alone. 
Cassie is a very intelligent woman, Her father is an inventor who has been hidden by the War Office.She has been trying to get the Director of the War Office to tell her where he is for the last year. She is doing that by making a pest of herself by going to the office every Monday to ask the Director. Cassie has also been writing articles for The Times newspaper under another name. (because women would not get published)These articles are calling the government to account on many things.                                                                                                                               
Mack  is the director ,and a very busy man who has had many attempts on his life. He also caught a bullet meant when he tried to save the Prime Minister from an assassin. He has not got the time to tell Cassie where he has hidden her father. He is trying to protect him and his important inventions.The pesky woman will not just go away and let him get on with more important work. 
One night the stakes are raised and Mack must listen to her. He then has to rescue her father with a lot of help from her. 
This is exactly my type of story. Strong intelligent heroine and a truly heroic hero. There are many times I wanted to knock Mack upside his head, but Cassie did it for me. Plenty of adventure,danger and humour along with a beautiful romance. I will be reading the 1st book when I have time, and any more books that are added to the series. I loved it.
