About this ebook

Jace Kaiser is a man without a country, without connection. His only loyalty is to the group who saved him, and the man who leads them.
Until her…

The assignment should have been easy. Capture a deadly assassin and take her to HQ. But flawed intel leads to disaster, and Jace abducts a beautiful art appraiser instead. Intrigued by her courage, he’s drawn to her in ways he can’t explain. Dr. Madeline Cole stood up to him, fought for her identity, and never backed down. She’s the kind of woman he could fall for if it wasn’t so dangerous—for her.

Then Maddy is targeted for elimination because she’s the sole person who can identify the mysterious female assassin—and the only thing standing between her and certain death is the sexy mercenary who swears he’ll die before he lets anything happen to her. As the passion between them ignites, it seems clear that keeping Maddy safe has become the most important assignment of Jace’s life.

Even then, protecting her might not be enough—because Jace has secrets that could destroy them both. And someone is determined to unmask them all…

Ratings and reviews

Action, adventure, mystery, and secrets. I couldn't get enough of Jace and Maddy. The way they meet is crazy, and then he's got to keep her safe because they find she's in danger. But he can't stay away from her, so things get really steamy- of course. There were a couple of bits that were difficult since I've had family members in the situation that Maddy has with her grandmother. I think that makes her a relatable character, because so many people will be able to relate. Jace can't help but give her his heart, even when he knows better because of who he really is. This is a great start to a new series by Lynn Raye Harris. And if you haven't read either of the other HOT series before this one, you may wonder about Ian Black, but you won't be totally lost. However, for long time readers of HOT you'll love the tidbits that we're given of who he is. He is still an enigma, but that just makes me want more of him.

frustrating with unnecessary break off while I'm enjoying the novel & have to start again! it is like a child who do not understand or know computer!

Lynn Raye Harris - Black List (Black's Bandits - Book 1): HOT Heroes for Hire: Mercenaries Genre: Contemporary/Military Romance Heat Level: Hot Stars: 5 In Ms. Harris’s style, the first installment takes off at rocket speed and doesn’t let up until you close the book. Black’s Bandits is a spin-off of the Hostile Operations Team (H.O.T.) series and one I have been waiting for with great excitement and anticipation. Sprinkled throughout H.O.T., Ian Black has shown up at the right time for many of the HOT missions. Colonel John VIPER Mendez, H.O.T. leader, has stated that Black is a mystery and has wondered if he is the enemy, a disavowed CIA agent that isn’t disavowed at all, or maybe a mercenary for hire. Regardless, Ian Black has helped Mendez and his men on several occasions, so for now, Mendez will count him as one of the good guys. The first installment is about Jace Kaiser who Ian Black saved seven (7) years ago after his parents and sister were taken away by the Russians and killed. For 7 years Jace has traveled the world for Black Defense International doing whatever was required to take the bad guys down and make the world a little better place to live. Jace has no intention of ever settling down, He knows Russia has a target on his back and anyone that he cared for would become a target too. That was until he met Dr. Madeline Cole. Jace’s assignment was to take out an assassin, Calypso, and take her to HQ. The mission didn’t go as planned. Instead of taking Calypso, he kidnapped Dr. Madeline Cole. When it became clear that Madeline (Maddy) was targeted for elimination, Jace pledges to protect her with his life. As time continues, they grow closer, and Jace must pull away, for Maddy’s own good. He will walk away as soon as Maddy is safe. He can’t allow her to be on the run from the Russians too. Will Jace be able to walk away, will Maddy allow him to walk.
