An avid reader

Born in Secret was the first book that I have read by Kylie Brant. I was impressed by the timeliness of her story line. International spies trying to validate information regarding a plot of mass destruction. The Brothers of Darkness, a rebel Arab faction, is conniving to seize control of a neighboring country. The Brother's desire to expand their power and to continue to promote their values. Walker and Jasmine are the team selected to investigate the situation and if necessary to use force to destroy it. They have worked together before and they are not pleased with the arrangement!! How Jasmine handled and dealt with Tarique was great, I didn't even see it coming.I'm looking forward to reading Ms. Brant's next book and if you are looking for a fast and fun read, the pick up Born in Secret!!.

Move over James Bond - Highly recommended

Walker James has the assignment to infiltrate a Middle Eastern Terrorist organization called the Brothers of Darkness so that he may locate and destroy an anthrax lab before a deadly plot decimates the majority of the country's population. Walker's delinquent childhood and experience as a thief hold him in good stead as he walks the shadowy world of espionage. Indeed, Walker fits well into a world without the clarity of black and white, preferring to walk the ambiguous gray areas. He's earned the nickname The Ghost for his ability to slip in and out of seemingly impenetrable places. While he works well alone or as a part of a team, he's not prepared for his new partner. Jasmine LeBarr outmaneuvered him three years ago, and he's never forgiven her.Jasmine goes undercover as an emissary called Rose Mahrain with Walker accompanying her as her driver. She has a gift for gaining people's trust, and of getting them to underestimate her, which she uses to her advantage. While Walker calls her an opportunist who will go any length to get what she wants, Jasmine actually adheres carefully to her own moral code. Walker is dangerous to her well being as any man she's ever brought down. He's already hurt her once with his callous dismissal, and she refuses to be that vulnerable again. Indeed, their lingering attraction may prove to be the most dangerous aspect of the mission. Kylie Brant weaves an intriguing web of danger in this timely tale of terrorism and romance in BORN IN SECRET. Unfortunately, while the theme of first-born sons frames the narrative, it does not affect the plot as a whole, resulting in a tacked on feeling at the end. Nevertheless, BORN IN SECRET is a highly believable, vividly realized tale. The fast paced plot and the strong characterizations are nicely balanced, resulting in a tale at once deadly, yet richly balanced by powerful emotions and physical attraction. Jasmine is a vivacious and strong heroine who refuses to allow Walker's scathing comments regarding their shared history get to her. In addition, she knows exactly how to apply her feminine wiles to great advantage to the men she encounters. Further, Walker's James Bond-like charisma and looks, complete with cool spy toys, makes him a memorable hero. Highly recommended.
