Firefighter and mercenary Marat Azarov thinks he’s being noble when he rescues a beautiful slave woman from certain torture. Alas, she turns out to be more than she appears and does not appreciate his interference. In an attempt to redeem himself—and perhaps win her regard—he concocts a plot that even his grenade-flinging colleague Striker deems unwise. Soon, he’s blowing up androids, being shot at by pirates, and earning the wrath of his own boss, and he’s not even sure if the woman likes him.
Genre: science fiction romance
Publication date: August 2015
Mature content: yes
Review: Not bad, but definitely not my favorite in the series. It feels - and reads - like a novella instead of a full length book. The plot had potential, and the action scenes are written just as well as all others in the series, but the story line - and the romance - deserved more development.
All books are supposed to be read as stand alones, but since the characters from previous books make lots of appearances in the following ones, I recommend you to read the whole series in the correct order.
You can also read my reviews of Mercenary Instinct (book 1), Trial and Temptation (book 2), The Assassin's Salvation (book 3), The Ruins of Karzelek (book 4) and Mercenary Courage (book 5).
Happy readings,
