Great romantic suspense; Deadly-series 4

Ian Kinncaid had to leave his family behind years ago after an argument with his father escalated. He joined the rangers and later became an undercover agent. For the last five years he has worked in Eastern Europe against a crime organisation that deals in drugs and prostitution. But then sadistic and aggressive Elianya Helinski, the crime lord's sister, starts into child pornography, which goes too far, even for her brother's taste. When he decides to have Ian take her out, she sends an assassin after him. That assassin is former secret service agent Rori Maitland, aka The Raven. When she starts to suspect that Ian is an undercover agent, she decides to help him. While trying to find and kill Elianya, Ian discovers her 'film set' and Darya, a five-year-old girl who was sold to the child-porn ring. After she had to witness her sister's rape and murder she is traumatised. Ian and Rori decide to take Darya with them and to go to the USA to protect the little girl and Ian's family, who might be at risk since his cover was blown. Rori and Ian, who have spent many years on their own since they couldn't let anyone in on their lives, seem to have found the perfect partner in the other. But Elianya wants revenge after Ian destroyed her source of income and she comes after him and his family... This book, like the others in the Deadly-series, is simply impressive. The author writes very convincingly and with a lot of depth about difficult topics, be it child pornography and abuse and its effects on the victims, or the difficulties of being an undercover agent. As all her books, this one is very intelligent, well-written, suspenseful and the romance is great, too. It can be read on its own, but it's more fun to know the rest of the series, of course. The titles would be: Deadly shadows, Deadly ties, and Deadly Obsession. There seem to have been plans for a fifth book, but that one hasn't been published yet. Since this one doesn't leave you hanging, that's not too frustrating, but I hope that Quinlan Kinncaid will get his own book sometime. At the moment, the books are difficult to get (the publisher is selling only directly and doesn't deliver to internet shops or distributors), but hopefully that will change again. It's definitely worth buying, as is the rest of the series. The quality reminds me of J. D. Robb, but it's original / different, too.

Deadly Games

Ian Kinncaid is working undercover. When he is hired to kill Elianya, an evil woman who thrives on destroying others, he discovers her sickening new business venture. Meanwhile, Rori, also known as the assassin The Raven, is contacted by Elianya to kill Ian. Rori decides that Ian doesn't seem like the usual mark and switches sides. As Ian And Rori save Elianya's young victim, another hit is put out on Ian. They have to flee to save their lives. Ian returns to his family in hopes that by hiding under his unknown true identity, they will be safe. But what Elianya's wants, Elianya gets, and she wants Ian to pay. In Deadly Games we finally get to meet the mysterious Ian Kinncaid. Ian plays a small, yet crucial part, in the previous Kinncaid Brothers' books. Ian's story is well worth the wait. This suspenseful, action-packed, and thrilling story kept me on the edge of my seat. Rori is truly the only woman for Ian. Their similar backgrounds allow them to trust and understand each other. Ian is a strong, hard man on the outside, and compassionate and loving on the inside. He is charming, sexy, and noble. The epitome of a knight in shining armor. Deadly Games is another excellent romantic suspense from Jaycee Clark. Nannette reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Best by far

Deadly Games is definitely my favorite in the Deadly series. Ian's story is amazing. You can really feel the connection between Ian and Rori. I absolutely loved it.
