Deadly Games serisini okuyup çok beğenmiş biri olarak bu kitabı onun yazdığına inanamadım, Çok fazla kopukluk vardı. Başta birbirlerinden hoşlanmayıp güvenmezken bir anda hop kendilerini yatakta buldular, Belki sayfa sayısının azlığından kaynaklı bir durumdur bu ama ben okurken tatmin olmadım maalesef, Wowza! This is a nonstop, action packed, suspense that will leave you on the edge of your seat the entire time.
Although this book is overpages, the intensity of the story makes it flow, seeming so much shorter,
This story kicks off with a crazy abduction, turned rescue mission, leaving Sabrina scratching her head trying to figure out who she can trust.
I love that shes not a damsel in distress and knows how to take care of herself, It made me drawn to her character more than it would have if she were written as “helpless”,
Mason is an enforcer assassin who finds himself caught up in a situation all too new for him.
He has never had doubts when his targets have been assigned, but Sabrinas case has caused him to rethink everything.
In between trying to crack the case and figure out whos who and where the story is going, Mason and Sabrina have some serious sparks flying.
How they made the time is amazing considering there was danger around every corner, but it worked,
This read has lots of twists and turns, great romance scenes and even better action/suspense scenes, Im happy that this is a series, I cant wait to read about the other characters!!! Yes, I highly recommend this if youre interested in suspense romance.
Absolutely worth it!
I was given a copy of this book as a gift from The JeepDiva in exchange for an honest review.
Talk about an action packed start to a new series, You are literally not given any time to catch your breath between the pages of this one,
Even though this is the first book technically in the series I would recommend at least reading Take the Key and Lock Her Up The Deadly Games Seriesfirst.
That is where it all starts and why there are so many vendettas in this book,
EXIT Inc was started for all the right reasons, Its a group of men who with the governments permission are allowed to remove any threat be it foreign or domestic, a way to go after terrorists or bad individual without any restrictions.
Problem is when you give the CEO of that company that much power things can go wrong and that they do.
Mason Hunt is an enforcer with EXIT and has been given a kill order against Sabrina Hightower, Mason doesnt normally question any of the kill orders he received but one of the agents that used to work for EXIT has contacted him and told him that the order against Sabrina has be falsified.
Mason struggles a bit to believe that the man that recruited him after his hell in Army would be part of something so sinister.
Its not long though before he sees that Sabrina is innocent and they both end up with kill orders against them.
From here on these two are on the run while also trying to figure out how to bring down the CEO of EXIT.
Like I said before the reasoning behind Sabrinas kill order and why the other agent left EXIT happen in a previous book.
The author does explain everything so youre not lost but as I was a fan of the previous series it was nice to see old characters back and to also get some closure to the open ended treads.
But there were just as many left open for future books,
I can tell that each book in this series is going to be one crazy ride and I look forward to the next book especially after the teaser we got at the end of this one.
This is a great start to a new series, My only issue is that if you don't read her series before this one, especially the last book you might feel a little lost.
Besides all that I did enjoy it, I found it to be very fast paced, with good characters and the humor we like in her suspense books.
I absolutely adore Sabrina, this is an incredibly versatile, down to earth, and spunky woman that Id go to great lengths just to high five her if she were real.
She stole every scene and moment in that story, yes Mason is all the things this kind of H should be, and I loved him with his Rina, but its Sabrina that made this story astar read for me.
I cant wait to read more from this author,
Funniest moments in the story, . .
Mason grabbed her and shoved her down onto the seat with her head in his lap, “Are you trying to get yourself killed”
“Did you forget that I bite” she snapped,
His eyes widened and he wisely let her go,
I chuckled and snorted through many great scenes in this book and ground my teeth in fear in others.

first impressions
I like the idea of the hero being the guy hired to assassinate the heroine.
But she doesn't look like she's been funding terrorist groups, Mason Hunt thinks he's taking out the bad guys, but what happens when he realizes those on his list may have been innocent
REVIEW
This is the first time I've read a romance where the hero is hired to kill the heroine.
He's not a hitman, rather he's more of an assassin for the good guys, . . or is he
In this spinoff series of The Deadly Games series, Mason Hunt is ordered to execute Sabrina Hightower.
But after one look into her eyes, and he just can't believe she's funding terrorism cells, So instead of killing her, he kidnaps her, As he's on the run with her, one of EXIT's other hitmen I hesitate to use the word hitman, because they also rescue and help.
They only take out bad guys tries to take her out since Mason is obviously running off with her,
But the contact Mason meets isn't someone he's ever met before, so he doesn't trust him yet, He won't trust anyone until he sees proof that Sabrina is truly innocent and the orders to kill her were falsified.
If that's true, it turns his whole world on its head, Could you imagine thinking you were a hero, taking out the worst of the worst in the world, only to find out that they could have been innocent
That's exactly what happens to Mason.
Now he's spending his energy on keeping her safe, and finding out what is going on at EXIT Inc, They were supposed to be the good guys, so what it the world is happening
I liked this.
I think the suspense was welldone, and I think the story was a new take on a hero, I know I've seen a lot of hitmen as heroes I'm looking at you Kresley Cole!, but in that sense, they aren't pretending to be anything but what they are.
Here, we have a good guy who maybe isn't as good as he thinks, and I ate this up!
While this is a spinoff series, Ive been told you don't need to have read the other series to read this one.
I haven't and I didn't feel I missed anything,
So, if you're looking for a wellplotted, wellwritten Romantic Suspense, this is a new author to me, and has quickly become an autobuy.

Sent to execute an EXIT order on Sabrina Hightower, Mason Hunt wants to be absolutely sure that shes guilty of the crimes for which shes been accused by his employer, EXIT Inc.
When an exenforcer, Devlin Buchanan and his old friend, Ramsey Tate tell him innocents are being targeted for termination, this rubs Mason the wrong way since he became an enforcer to keep the bad guys from injuring innocent people in the first place.
If he is unwillingly killing innocents then hes no better than the bad guys,
Sabrinas life hasnt been normal for quite some time, Her brother was killed in a socalled mugging, her grandfather has mysteriously disappeared, and her cousin has her being investigated in regard to
his disappearance.
Having been labeled a convicted felon and ordered to leave Colorado, shes now living in North Carolina and is determined to learn as much as she can about the tour company shes suing for being responsible in her parents zip lining accident, killing both of them before her very eyes.
The tour companyEXIT Inc. When someone breaks into her home, she does her best to protect her life and escape only to be captured, and dragged into the woods by a sexy yet deadly man who says hes not going to hurt her unless shes not as innocent as hes been told.
Innocent of what
Soon, she and Mason become the hunted and more than a lawsuit is on the line nowtheir lives are too.
EXIT STRATEGY by Lena Diaz is an actionpacked, pageturner, thrill ride of the greatest proportion, I loved every minute of this amazing thriller, This is one of my alltime favorite kind of reads and it did not disappoint,
We were first introduced to the covert organization posing as an international tour company called EXIT Inc, in Lena Diazs thriller, TAKE THE KEY AND LOCK HER UP, the last book in the Deadly Games series, I knew when Devlin Buchanan and Emily OMalley teamed up and teased us with taking on EXIT Inc, that this series was going to be an amazing ride,
I love how Lena makes her characters strong, smart, and wickedly sexy while still vulnerable, In EXIT STRATEGY, we learn that Mason is a good man at heart despite what he does for a living.
Hes honorable, trustworthy, and believes in good versus evil, He also carries memories of torture and hatred but doesnt want that to spill out to touch anyone else, especially Sabrina.
Whereas Mason is secretive about his pain and emotional baggage, Sabrina is open, honest, and strongwilled but even she has her fears, and shes forced to face one of her greatest while trying to stay alive in EXIT STRATEGY.
If you enjoy a cast of characters who you will most likely see again, and again, throughout the seriescharacters, which are fullbodied, strong, and emotionally open, you will thrill at the Exit Inc.
series. This first book in the series starts it off with nonstop action, edge of the seat expectation, and steamy cornfield sex that will have you wishing for your own Exit order.
I highly recommend EXIT STRATEGY, an Exit Inc, Thriller by Lena Diaz because it rocks, it explodes with superb action and thrills, and still gives you a big smile at the endor rather the end of Mason and Sabrinas story because stay tunedthe ride has just begun.
