Fatal Secrets
By: Allison Brennan



Series: FBI Trilogy
Genre: Romance, Mystery, Suspense
Length: 448 pages
Synopsis From Goodreads:

DEADLY QUEST 

When a top lieutenant in a notorious ring of human traffickers agrees to turn state’s evidence, Immigration and Customs Enforcement senior agent Sonia Knight believes she’ll finally take down the illegal operation’s devilish mastermind, Xavier Jones. But when an FBI sting on Jones’s criminal enterprise collides with an ICE stakeout, Sonia is enraged: Her informant’s life and her evidence are in grave jeopardy.

FBI agent Dean Hooper has been chasing Jones for years on money-laundering and tax-evasion charges and doesn’t need or want a hot-headed ICE agent second-guessing his every move. When the Bureau is ordered to join forces with ICE, Sonia is just as livid: Her job is to save lives, not money. But their team effort pays off as fierce mutual resentment fades and passion flares–along with risk. 

For Jones is just one piece of a depraved puzzle, answering to an even more dangerous predator. Denied his expected prey, this pitiless fiend intends to make Sonia and Dean pay with their own blood.

My Review:
Rating:
★★★

Whenever I need a mystery novel fix, Allison Brennan is my first stop. The first books I read of hers were the Lucy Kincaid series and I was hooked on her writing right away. She has a way of bring to life the world of her FBI crime novels. 

Fatal Secrets follows Sonia and Dean as they work together to find and stop a notorious human trafficking ring. 

Sonia, a seasoned ICE agent with a dark past of her own is hell-bent on bringing down Xavier Jones a well known philanthropist and lobbyist, with a secret career in human trafficking. She will stop at nothing to save the girls he has smuggled into Sacramento, even if it means joining forces with the FBI. 

Dean, the Assistant Director in charge of the FBI always gets is man and this time his sights are set on Xavier Jones. If it's the last thing he does Dean is arresting Jones for his money laundering shenanigans. 

Can Sonia and Dean work together? Will Sonia be able to face her past? Will she be able to trust Dean, in order to stop these monstrous criminals? 

Because someone else is in play in this game and they have it out for Sonia. Will Sonia and Dean be able to stop them before it's too late? 

If you're ever looking for a good FBI/crime novel, Allison Brennan is the place to look. Ive always enjoyed her books, they are fast paced and definitely keep you guessing.
