This is the second book in the Deadly Ops series but can be read as a stand-alone.
Maria Cervantes runs a community center, a job that involves mixing with the affluent on occasion to obtain much needed funding. Never would she have dreamed that attending a benefits dinner she would overhear terrorists planning destruction and survive an explosion that took the life of someone she dearly loved. Being the lone survivor she is of interest to the NSA but she doesn’t remember what happened as she is suffering from shock and grief.
Cade O’Reilly, an NSA agent, volunteered for the job of questioning Maria when he saw her name as the lone survivor. She is the woman he could never forget, the younger sister of his best friend, and the man who deserted her during a time of need for reasons she never knew. Nothing is going to stop him from protecting her now, as she tries to remember what happened that night before the world erupted, and she doesn’t make it easy for him to do so.
This story was filled with non-stop action and suspense. The H and h were strong likable characters. The building of their relationship in the past was illustrated by interspersing emails they sent to each other years ago when Cade was in the service. This gave us insight into where their feelings in the present began from and how much each had come to mean to the other years ago. That the attraction is still there is evident and as much as they fight it they are meant to be together. They do need to work some things out between them and Cade needs to regain Maria’s trust. The author has provided us with villains this time who you can’t help but empathize with, though their ends do NOT justify their means, their motivation is not only revenge but justice. It makes you wonder what you would do in their place.
Received a copy from NetGallery for early review.

his book is the second in the Deadly Ops series by Katie Reus. I reviewed the first book, Targeted, on GoodReads (https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/683444437) and could not wait for the sequel. I was sure I knew who the main characters were going to be and I really wanted to know their story.
I was so wrong.
Bound to Danger introduces two entirely new characters with their own past history. Cade was best friends with Maria’s brother when they served together in Afghanistan. He spent holidays with their family and he and Maria became friends. Through letters and emails, they become more than friends and Cade planned to return to Maria when his tour was up. However, when Maria’s brother is killed, Cade cuts off all contact with Maria out of guilt for not saving him. Not only does Maria lose her brother, she loses the man she loves.
Got all that?
Now, years later, Maria is in danger because she overhears a group of terrorists discussing their plans. Cade, who now belongs to a black ops organization, is sent in to protect her. They still care for each other, but neither one of them will admit it - Maria because she does not understand why Cade abandoned her and Cade because he feels guilty for her brother’s death AND because he abandoned Maria.
So, of course, they fall into bed with each other.
Okay, not at first. At least two to three days go by before they have sex, but from that point forward I felt the sex scenes dominated the story. They were really good sex scenes, but they didn’t do a lot to advance the plot.
That, however, is my only criticism. The book was engrossing with a unique to me plot line. Characters from the previous book had minor parts and I always enjoy seeing old friends. I definitely recommend this book, but be sure and read Targeted first.
I look forward to book three. Surely, the two minor characters from the first book will get their story. Maybe?

4,75 stars BOUND TO DANGER is the second release in Katie Reus’s adult, contemporary Deadly Ops action/suspense series focusing on a group of Special Ops agents. Although it is the second storyline in the series, it can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. This is community activist Maria Cervantes and NSA agent Cade O’Reilly’s storyline.
The premise focuses on a terrorist attack at a local mansion where the rich and famous had gathered. The only survivor is Maria Cervantes and the NSA wants to know why and what she knows. Enter Cade O’Reilly-Maria’s brother’s former commander in Afghanistan-and the man that walked out of Maria’s life eight years earlier. BOUND TO DANGER is a second chance storyline that places Maria in the line of fire when the terrorist cell that perpetrated the explosion set their sights on other targets including Maria. How much does Maria know and how did she survive the explosion?
The relationship between Maria and Cade is a friends to lovers/second chance story. Maria and Cade became email ‘pen pals’ while Cade was stationed in Afghanistan with Maria’s brother Riel. As the lone survivor of a rescue mission that went horribly wrong, Cade has had to deal with the guilt for eight years-and in doing so, walked out of Maria’s life without any explanation as to why. Now that Maria has been targeted and questioned, Cade’s protective alpha side wants Maria safe so that he can rekindle what was started years before.
The secondary characters include the members of the terrorist organization, their intended victims, and the men and women who serve in the NSA. Jack Stone from TARGETED (Deadly Ops #1) joins Cade and the team in Miami which gives the series a sense of cohesion and familiarity.Read more ›
