Welcome to the Wednesday’s Favorites post. In the Wednesday’s
Favorites post I will talk about a book I loved and that I think deserves a
little more attention. I read popular books, but also many books that aren’t so
popular (yet). In this post all sorts of books from all sorts of genre’s will have
a chance to shine. Today’s Wednesday’s Favorites is ‘Blurring The Line’ by Kierney Scott, a book I read in June 2015.
The Book:
When DEA agent Beth Thomson recruits ex-soldier Armando
Torres as an undercover agent, she knows she has hit the jackpot.
He will infiltrate ‘Los Zetas’, one of Mexico’s deadliest cartels, and expose
their drug-running into the USA. In turn, she promises to turn a blind eye to
him finding and killing the rival cartel member who shot his best friend. Beth
is good at overlooking the gruesome details of her job; her focus is the bigger
picture – nailing ‘El Escorpion’, the mysterious and most-wanted leader of the
‘Los Treintas’ gang.
Torres soon climbs the cartel ladder, and has the tattoo markings to prove his
loyalty. So when a secret meet with Beth goes wrong, his cover is strong enough
for him to save her from his fellow gang members. His silence hints at the
horrors he has performed to get him where he is, and his brutality and strength
both scare and arouse Beth simultaneously. The heat between them is
unprofessional and yet undeniable. But has he gone rogue? Can Beth trust him to
put her mission before his own revenge? And can she trust herself with him?

Praise for ‘Blurring The Line’:
entertaining – there’s definitely a big dollop of humor thrown in! Kierney
Scott certainly is talented and I’m looking forward to reading more from her.
gave me major sadface. This is pretty different than what I usually read, and I
loved every minute. I NEED MORE! MUST GET BOOK 2!!!!
and would make fantastic books to have with you on your summer holiday, or even
just lying in the park on a nice day. They really transport you into a
different, grittier world. If the first book is anything to go by, the entire
series is a must read.
and I really loved it. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
Especially knowing how this book ended. Major cliffhanger alert!
Amazon in the very near future!!
