Toxic Seduction

Romantic Secret Agents Series, Book 3

By: Roxy Sinclaire

Narrated by: Sarah Puckett

As an MI-5 agent, Christine was the newest member of the London Anti-Terrorism Task Force. There was a terrorist attack with a lot of casualties by bomb blasts, which forced the United States to send one of their CIA Special Ops Agents, Jason, to track the bomber responsible.

One look at him was all it took Christine to want to partner up, even though Jason doesn't let women come in the way of his job. But there's something about Christine that does, in fact, divert his attention. The longer he works on the case with Christine, the harder it gets to resist their desires, on and off duty.

Tracking the bomber, they realize that it was just a smokescreen for one of the largest cover diamond heists in the past decade. They find that Warick, Jason's contact in the diamond business, was behind the attack. It does look like Jason was giving the enemy information when they get caught in an ambush.

Will Christine's instincts overcome her thoughts, or will her feelings for Jason cloud her judgment? Christine doesn't have much to go on except faith in Jason, but will she risk her life to save his, along with thousands of innocent people?

A fast-paced story!

This was a fast-paced story involving the CIA and MI-5. Their investigation involved many twists and turns along with a little romance. The story flowed ok but the romance part seemed a little quick and not as well developed. Overall I enjoyed the story of the investigation.

I enjoyed the narrator with this story. She was able to narrate both the male and female character parts so well that you forget it's one narrator.

CIA meets MI5

I like the plot of the story, but the Clues was a little to obvious.
But I liked it.

A CIA and a MI5 agent must work together to capture the suspect terrorist after bombings in USA and now in London.
But do they have the right man pointed out?

Loved the story. Needed a British narrator.

Any additional comments?

This book was a great instant-attraction, crime thriller with some very likable characters, a smooth as silk bad guy, and a well-deserved HEA. Roxy Sinclair writes a very strong character-driven story and it kept me engaged all the way through.

The narrator was good, really good actually, but the main female character was London born and that was not reflected in the narration. It's just my pet peeve but that lack would take me out of the story from time to time.

The "secret agent" part of this story was very suspenseful. Christine, the MI5 agent, and Jason, the CIA agent, even with the attraction, had to get through some stuff. You knew they would figure it out but it was a thrill ride getting there. Love that.

Betrayal and Twists!

Christine is an intelligence Analyst for MI5 who has been assigned to work with Jason, a CIA agent, as a recent terrorist attack is similar to other attacks in other places. Jason is an experienced CIA agent and he doesn’t need any help especially from someone as inexperienced as Christine as he has been tracking the suspect for years.

There is an instant attraction which only becomes stronger as they work together however they know that any loss of concentration from their investigation could result in more deaths, including their own. When Jason starts to act suspiciously will she follow her heart or the evidence? Great combination of suspense, drama, twists and betrayal.

I loved the audible version and it was well done. The narrator made it easy to tell who was speaking and it was clear and concise. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Quick Suspenseful listen!

Suspense and romance! That is what I love about this series that Roxy Sinclaire has written. This one in particular was so much fun to listen to because of the characters. Christine is put on a case to help find terrorists only to find out that she is being paired up with a US Agent! Jason comes to England thinking he knows everything about the case he has been working on for years, and this young, green, British agent is just going to get in his way. Little does Jason know how smart and intuitive this agent is! Sinclaire has such well developed characters, so many twists and turns and lots of passion stored up in a short amount of time, it will fly by as you listen and make you want the next installment of this wonderful romantic suspense series! Sarah Puckett will draw you into this book with her narration(though I would have liked Christine to have an English accent). She will keep you on your toes as you listen and keep you wanting more!

Toxic Seduction

I love a strong female lead character. MI-5 Agent, Christine Simmons is tasked with CIA Agent Jason Kern to discover who is responsible for the terrorist bomb blasts.

There were just enough twists and turn to keep me drawn in to the story. My one complaint... with Christine being a British Agent, I would have loved for her to have had a British accent.

INTERESTING. THE HERO ROLE WAS REVERSED

I was provided this audiobook through Audiobook Boom at no charge by the author in exchange for an unbiased review.

This book had a well thought out plot with interesting twists and turns. A good supporting cast of characters helped me to know Christine. Jason entered self-assured and all proud Alpha. I found it interesting that, as the plot thickened, the ball was really in Christine's hands the entire time. She had good instincts.

Sarah Puckett is an excellent narrator. That said, she was not the one for this book. If the female lead is English and the story unfolds in England, the get British narrator. I think Sarah did as well as can be expected considering that handicap.

WAVING UP ONE THUMB!

Pretty good story, not so much the narration

I enjoyed the story up until the very end...it had a very abrupt ending with no real closure. But there were some very far-fetched parts of the story too. The unprofessionalism of both agents was glaring, as well as how inept and oblivious Jason was-especially for a veteran agent.
And the narration left a lot to be desired...the accents were horrid. And why did only some of the Brits have accents?? Christine and Billman didn't, but Warrack and his crew did??
Besides the terrible accents, it literally sounded like the book was being read, and not well-very monotone and quite boring. There were pronunciation mistakes too. Just not impressed with the narration at all. If all Roxy Sinclaire's books are narrated like this, I'll just stick to reading them.

Fast Paced, Suspenseful Romance!

This is fast paced and thrilling, as two agents from two countries, race against the clock to catch a terrorist. CIA agent, Jason, collaborates on a case with Christine, London's newest and brightest MI-5 agent. They are both drawn to each other from the start. But as they get closer to the terrorist, more lives are put in danger, including their own. I enjoyed Sarah Puckett's narration altho I would have preferred an english accent for all of the characters from England, not just one of them. Other than that she drew me into the action and I did enjoy her storytelling. If you are looking for a quick, suspenseful romance, then you must give Toxic Seduction a listen.

Fast Paced

This book was well narrated by Sarah Puckett and is a fast paced story about an unlikely partnership between Christine (MI5) and Jason (CIA) who are working together in Europe to catch a terrorist bomber who has been attacking diamond merchants.

When the bomber strikes in London Jason, who has been following this terrorist for three years, gets himself attached to MI5 and is technically working under the authority of MI5. Their investigation leads them to wonder is the terrorist that Jason has been following really is the brains behind these attacks or is the enemy much closer to home?

All in all a well rounded story with a touch of steamy chemistry between Christine and Jason. But I felt that Jason was a little slow seeing what had been in front of him for so long.
