FBI agent Declan Grey is in the chase of his life--but isn't sure exactly what he's chasing after. Threatened by a terrorist that "the wrath is coming," Grey fears something horrible is about to be unleashed on American soil. When his investigation leads him to a closed immigrant community, he turns to Tanner Shaw to help him. She's sought justice for refugees and the hurting around the world, and if there's anyone who can help him, it's Tanner.
Tanner Shaw has joined the FBI as a crisis counselor . . . meaning she now has more opportunity to butt heads with Declan. But that tension also includes a spark she can't deny, and she's pretty sure Declan feels the same. But before anything can develop between them, they discover evidence of a terror cell--and soon are in a race against the clock to stop the coming "wrath" that could cost thousands their lives.
My Rating & Thoughts: 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 (5 stars)
give in to his feelings and see where the current pulled him.”
The intensity of this series keeps growing with each book. This is one series that must be read in order to really understand everything that is going on. Plus it will help you get to know the characters better, understanding their backgrounds and interactions with one another.
Declan and Tanner are teamed together to investigate a human smuggling ring. This teaming up forces them to spend lots of time together, really getting to know one another and leads them to exploring their feelings for each other. The rest of the gang begin investigating a fraud case that leads to a much complicated case.
There is a ton of action throughout the book, multiple threats to lives and lots of high stress moments but mixed in is a blossoming relationship. Without giving any spoilers there was another thread added that piqued my interest so much I could not put this book down. I loved that the characters felt real, personal stuff was happening in addition to their work stuff. I enjoyed how the faith of characters was presented, showing it is a daily relationship not a only turn to God in those desperate times relationship.
I have grown to care about each character throughout the series and have always looked forward to the Declan scenes in previous books, but in this one it was the Kate scenes I loved the most. As much as I enjoyed this story, I am frustrating with the ending as it ends with a cliff-hanger. It frustrates me when I have to wait, who knows how long, to find out what’s going to happen with this characters I have grown to know. It is for this reason that I prefer to wait for the whole series to be released before starting book one, but I didn’t realize there would be a book 4. Can I please have it now?

he’d be so at peace that concerns of this world would simply fade away.”
