Rules of Engagement by Selena Montgomery

As they untangle a twisted web of secrets and lies, Raleigh & Adam discover that the most dangerous risk of all... is falling in love.

Love is a game of chance in this romantic suspense novel by New York Times bestselling author and American politician and activist Stacey Abrams, writing under her pen name, Selena Montgomery.

Dr. Raleigh Foster, an operative for a top-secret intelligence organization, knows that her undercover work has its risks. So she doesn't hesitate when asked to infiltrate Scimitar, the terrorist group that has stolen lethal environmental technology. But when she's assigned a partner—brooding, sexy Adam Grayson—to pose as her lover, Raleigh discovers that the most dangerous risk of all... is falling in love.

Adam blames himself for the botched mission that got his best friend killed by Scimitar, and he believes that Raleigh may have contributed to the man's death. But the closer he works with his alluring partner, the more his suspicions turn to trust—and intense desire. Now, as he and Raleigh untangle a twisted web of secrets and lies, the tension mounts between them... until their masquerade as a couple proves too tempting to resist.

M/F Mystery, Romance

Raleigh, aka Chimera, is part of a covert government agency, ISA. With a new mission on the horizon, she needs the help of a former operative in order to get her desired outcome. That person is none other than her almost lover, Adam, aka Merlin. She knows it's going to be an uphill battle to get Merlin to help because she knows that he believes she's the reason his best friend, Phillip, is dead.

Adam is doing what he does best. Keeping his company in the black. He's a brilliant businessman and even better with technology. When he's pulled back into ISA's operations, he does so with a chip on his shoulder and cynicism in his heart.

When the operation finally starts to move along, which does take a while in my opinion, the book clips along at a fast pace. However, to get to that point, I felt, was a little tedious. There is a lot of background that the reader needs, but it felt almost repetitive at times.

As Chimera and Merlin play their parts in this new operation, secrets and loyalties will be tested. Truths are uncovered and some truths are buried. It will take all of their skills to complete this mission and even more to heal their hearts again.

This is a fairly quick read, and I did enjoy it. The spy games were very fun to read.
