Publisher's summary

Northstar Security agent Riley O’Neal balks at posing as anyone’s husband for an assignment. Nevertheless, to rescue the kidnapped wife of a US senator, he’ll perform his duty and do his best to resist the charms of the very woman who deceived him on a previous mission.

US Army Lt. Mary “Chip” Anderson is uneasy about the undercover assignment to pose as newlyweds. Concealing her attraction to Riley while staying focused on the task may be the biggest challenge. Despite efforts to remain objective, enforced proximity ignites emotions and a desire to make the fake honeymoon real.

When Chip is kidnapped during a botched rescue attempt of the senator's wife, both women become pawns in the case that threatens the nation’s security. Riley must remain objective, save the women, and avert the threat. But after that, can he convince Chip that she wants to wear his ring forever?

An average story.

This story could have been more developed to reach its full potential.It had promise but for me began to become tedious.

The characters needed to be more fully developed and the plot requires more nuance.

The Narrator is capable but did not help me enter the story.

Love this series!

Perfect blend of action, humor, and romance. Great characters and story, I was hooked from start to finish following Chip and Riley’s story. Great narrator too, he puts emotion into his performance and has kept the voices he uses for the characters consistent through the series so far.

Interesting Political Thriller

Great story, fast paced and exciting. Narrator needs to work on female voices. Still good.

Riley & Chip!

The third installment of the Northstar series took me a little time to get into, but once in, the story took off! Riley and Chip's are called to pose as a married couple so they can save the wife of a senator. Kidnapped and being held ransom over a congressional vote, this case is dangerous. Pretending to be married after a tumultuous first meeting seemed like it would be difficult, but the chemistry is there, and the sparks are flying. As the case goes on, and things take a serious turn, these two have to separate their feelings from the case, but is that possible? I love romantic suspense and Stanalei Fletcher again delivers a story with thrilling scenes. The banter between Riley and Chip is full of spunk and while there is attraction, the respect for their craft is evident and comes first. The story is filled with suspense and I love their undercover story, it adds a lot to the plot.

Narrated by Charles Henderson Norman, his voice has become this series for me. He gives the character the suspenseful sound, and can turn and fill each with a loving voice. I look forward to the next in the series.

Hot, Hot military-type story

I received this audiobook free for an honest review. I liked the story with Riley and Chip/Mary. Shows how two strong personalities can still fall in love. Just a little harder than most, but a very strong love. This book not only gives you romance, but also suspense, intrigue and excitement. It is all encompassing. Not too fond of the narrator. He is perfect for a military-type voice, with his gruff sound. He sounds like an old commander you might see on television. However, he isn't too good on the feminine voice. He would be good if someone else did the female side while he does the military male side.

I Liked It!

I liked this book. This story started out slow at first but kept me engaged once I got into it. The narration could have been better but didn't ruin the story for me. This was my first book by this author and I would have no problems listening to the other books in this series. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Slow and steamy

This was a good book and interesting story. The narrator was hard to listen to when he did the female voices but if you can get past that, the twists and turns will keep you interested.
