The Kelly Group International (KGI): A super elite, top secret, family-run business.

Mission: Hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering. Handling jobs the US government can’t…

It’s been one year since ex-Navy SEAL Ethan Kelly last saw his wife Rachel alive. Overwhelmed by grief and guilt over his failures as a husband, Ethan shuts himself off from everything and everyone.

His brothers have tried to bring Ethan into the KGI fold, tried to break through the barriers he’s built around himself, but Ethan refuses to respond… until he receives anonymous information claiming Rachel is alive.

 

To save her, Ethan will have to dodge bullets, cross a jungle, and risk falling captive to a deadly drug cartel that threatens his own demise.

The Darkest Hour has been a re-read for me since it came out. It is an action packed, intense, emotional read. Loved that I never knew what direction Maya Banks was taking me. The Darkest Hour starts off with a bang and never lets up. Rescuing Ethan suppose dead wife Rachel is an edge of your seat moment. The after math towards her recovery is heart breaking and all I wanted to do was comfort Ethan and Rachel. To this day their journey tears at my heart just thinking what they have to go through to mend their lives back together. Thank goodness his family was there to help them along.

 

Maya Banks is truly a talented writer and love her writing voice. She is able to captured the right amount of romance and suspense in Romantic Suspense.
