About this ebook

Small town police officer Emma Ross loves her simple life––but it takes a hard turn into crazy when she’s kidnapped by MI6 and is put under the protection of an over-bearing, albeit sexy, Scotsman. A man who believes she’s lying to protect her father—a father whom she had no idea worked for British Intelligence and is now missing.

Liam Macknight’s partner was assassinated and he’s certain Emma’s father had something to do with it. But the stubborn woman isn’t talking, and she’s determined to get herself killed trying to find out the truth. Locking her in a room does no good––he tried that. So he’s forced to work with her, even if he’s not sure he’ll ever be able to trust her.

When he's assigned to kill her dad to protect the identity of British spies in the Kremlin, he knows what little trust they’ve gained is about to be destroyed forever...

Ratings and reviews

London Calling by Veronica Forand Oooohhhh...LOVED this book! I can definitely see it as the beginning of a series and do hope it will be! I was hooked from the start and could not put this book down. I loved the characters, the way they interacted, the story and...just about everything. Sure, there were a few times I wanted to pop McKnight up side of the head to wake him up but at the same time did get why he was acting the way he was. Twists and turns and action and romance and...everything a good romantic suspense should have! This is a first book by this author for me BUT it won’t be the last. She has created characters I could see, hear, understand, empathize with and care about. I can definitely see some of the rest of the team finding partners in future books...hint hint...future books would be a wonderful thing! I could tell you what the story is about BUT the blurb pretty much tells what will happen...just not in depth or detail and you DO want to read to find those things out! What I liked: * Everything but...more specifically… * Emma Ross was a powerhouse, strong, dedicated, capable and smart...wished I could be her! * Liam McKnight is a great leader and though he might seem to have lost his soul...he really has not...I would love to be with him. * Edward Ross – Emma’s father was intriguing and what a great part he played in this book * Owen...really want to know more about him! * The potential for more books in this series and getting to know the players of the MI6 team a whole lot better. What I didn’t like” * The bad guys...but we are not supposed to like them are we? * That the story ended and I have to wait to see if there will be more and if this will be a series. Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review. 5 Stars

Loved this book! Emma, a small town cop in the states, rushes to England to tend to her dad after a call luring her there. Once she arrives, against her will, she is placed in the custody of MI6. Macknight is the team leader and he doesn't trust her and isn't answering her questions. Each time she tries to get away, something else even more dangerous occurs. Macknight isn't above using a bit of romance to keep Emma contained and cooperative, but what happens when he falls a bit for his own act? I thoroughly enjoyed the fast paced action in this novel and loved the push/pull between Emma and Macknight. I felt invested in the characters, especially Emma's, as the small town girl suddenly pulled into something she didn't understand. When paired with Macknight, an engaging "alphahole", the sparks fly. If you enjoy the genre, you will love this book. I couldn't put this one down and it should be at the top of your TBR list. The author is on my must read authors' list.
