Ratings and reviews

Fifth in this suspenseful series. In this book, the love interests take on a cartel, dodge bullets,deal with an old nemesis, kidnapping, hit and run,murder, yet find time for romance and meet the parents. This story is packed with action, mystery and excitement. Strap in and enjoy this fast paced ride.

This book hooks you from the get go with suspense, intrigue and mystery. Add in some romance and you’ve got an amazing story. Diego and Tara end up together after a tragic event and that’s just the beginning of their adventure. Barbara as a way of weaving a story that keeps you engrossed. I loved having the whole team together and the way it wrapped up the underlying mystery that has been interwoven in the series. I was shocked and pleasantly surprised to find out there are going to be more books in the series. Looking forward to reading them. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this book.

Wow! Barbara Freethy has once again delivered an incredible romantic thriller with Dangerous Choice. Each book in Barbara Freethy's Off the Grid: FBI series gets better and better. I absolutely loved Dangerous Choice, the fifth book in her Off the Grid: FBI series. Dangerous Choice had me guessing throughout the story as to who was behind the disappearance and the other thrilling events. I could not put it down. I loved every page. I really enjoy how the book is told from the perspective of the main characters. I love getting the insight and feelings from the different characters. Barbara Freethy has once again proven that she is a master storyteller. Dangerous Choice is the story of Diego Rivera, an undercover FBI agent and Tara Powell, a high school Spanish teacher. Diego and Tara meet at the church each wanting to talk to Father Manuel. Diego is looking for information about his missing mother, Camilla and brother, Mateo and Tara is looking for her best friend Lauren. Father Manuel is murdered at the beginning of mass, and Diego and Tara run from the church. Someone is chasing after Diego or Tara or perhaps both of them. They decide to work together to find out the whereabouts of both Diego's brother, Mateo and Tara's friend, Lauren. After multiple attempts on their lives, the relationship between Diego and Tara changes. Neither is sure if their relationship is just fueled by the adrenaline from the chase. Diego reaches out to Wyatt Tanner for help. Eventually all clues lead back to Los Angeles. I really enjoy the poignant and bittersweet moments, the plot twists and the surprises that I have come to love and expect in Barbara Freethy's books and Dangerous Choice did not disappoint. One of my favorite parts of the story are the poignant moments that Tara has during conversations with her Mom and with Lauren. I loved all the secrets that Diego and Tara shared with one another. I love that all the characters from the previous books were included in Dangerous Choice. It felt like a family reunion and I loved catching up with the other characters from the series. I was also glad the Vincent Rowland's revenge plot against the team finally came to light and I love how it was resolved. That was truly one plot twist that I did not see that happening. I love how all Barbara Freethy's epilogues, wrap up the ending of the story and are always my favorite part of her books. Never would I have guessed how Lauren's disappearance was linked to Diego's brother, Mateo, that was truly a surprise plot twist. I love how all the lose ends got tied up. I love all the characters and the way she describes the locations in and around Colombia and Los Angeles. It was really an incredible story and I loved every page.
