Series: Capital Intrigue Book 2
CIA analyst Layla Karam is thrust into a dangerous DEA field operation against a cartel that puts a target on her back. Though Layla never wanted to be a field agent, Langley had other ideas. After one of her team members is murdered because of fallout from the op, Layla is left scrambling to find safety.
At the same time, the CIA opens up an internal investigation against her. Out of options, Layla turns to ex-boyfriend and private investigator Hunter McCoy for help finding out who might want to ruin her career.
Layla and Hunter soon discover a mole inside the DEA has sold out the team's identity to the cartel. She must clear her name with the Agency and protect herself and her teammates from cartel retaliation. With threats on all sides, Layla must put her trust in Hunter--the man who broke her heart--and hope they both come out of it alive.

My Thoughts:
Fantastic second book in the Capital Intrigue series!
Rachel Dylan uses her knowledge and research skills as a lawyer to create a suspense filled, action packed second installment of her Capital Intrigue series.
As is with all series I love that I am reunited with characters from the previous book and introduced to new characters. Which is fun!
The pacing is perfect. Sometimes with suspense novels the author might speed up things but Rachel Dylan doesn't do that. She keeps the action, twists and turns, as well as the romance moving along at such a good pace that the reader wants to keep reading.
The characters are dimensional, unique with fully developed fictional lives that makes you want to know them, and cheer for them.
Ms. Dylan weaves in the faith thread so well. I'm not one for preachy books and I love how she wove the faith thread in through the relationships.
I highly recommend this series and suggest that you read them in order.
