This is the second book in Mitchell’s In Clear Sight series. Some events in this are concurrent to parts of book 1, Guarded by the Marshal. This stands well on its own, but they’re best read in order.
Definitely heavier on the sex & romance than the suspense aspect - but I enjoyed that there was more mystery this time around. Gray & Anne were interesting characters. Gray’s time undercover for the DEA has him in hiding at Anne’s ranch.
As a Texan myself, I could relate to a lot of the story’s setting and it was fun to “see” Gray experience ranching and all it entails for the first time in his life. Anne’s love of animals and her desire to keep the family business running shown through.
I especially liked that Anne is a strong, intelligent, and capable woman. Gray supports and encourages her without trying to manage or mansplain. But he’s definitely in charge between the sheets (or on the table, against the wall, etc

Cherished by the Agent
In Clear Sight, Book 2
By: Kennedy L. Mitchell
Narrated by: Daryl Hix, Gomez Pugh
This book is a prime example of why I love Kennedy L Mitchell. She knows how to put together a story with some meat to it, and add in the romance to make to just the right amount of what I love to listen to! Book 2 in her In Clear Sight series, she introduces Grayson and Anne to me. Grayson is an undercover DEA agent, no longer undercover, but hiding for his life. Once discovered, he knew the consequences, but staying on Anne's ranch in the cabin and possibly putting her and the people there is danger is not ideal. Anne is struggling with her craft as the men in the area do not take her as seriously as if she were a man. True or not, it's how she sees it, but that is not what Gray sees. He sees the competent veterinarian and rancher that she is. His protectiveness towards her started the second he laid eyes on her, and the feelings are mutual. But is he the one that brings the threat to her ranch? This story is packed with good and bad people, the question is who to trust. Kennedy weaves a web and it's sticky! But the passion is hot! And the characters amazing! This is a great addition to the series, and is the kind of book that is right up my alley! Loved it!
Daryl Hix and Gomez Pugh bring it all to life with an amazing narration. These two could not have been cast better. It's as if their voices were imagined when Kennedy wrote the book! Hix as Anne comes in with a stubborn, strength that is so true to character! She is feisty and motivated with a fiery passion. Pugh comes in as Gray, a bit hesitant, a lot protective, his instincts are brought to the surface with inflections and nuances. Loved these two and enjoyed the listen.

Veterinarian Anne inherited the family ranch in an isolated town in Texas and her guesthouse was perfect for people under the protection of the marshal to stay when needed. She is struggling to keep everything running on the ranch while trying to find reliable and trustworthy workers. So, she was open to allowing Gray to help her while he was staying in her guesthouse.
DEA agent Gray had been undercover for years while trying to take down a drug lord in Florida. He had seen and done horrible things while undercover and now Gray is on the run from the drug lord for his part in taking him down.
Cherished by the Agent is the second book in the In Clear Sight series. I loved the first book and was so excited about this one. We met Anne in the first book and saw how she was struggling with her ranch, so I was so glad to see her find her happy ever after. She had always felt like she couldn’t connect with anyone, and that she was the problem but with Gray it was different. She was attracted to and connected with Gray right away. Gray felt guilty for all he had been forced to do while undercover. He knew he had helped people from being hurt in the future but so many had already been hurt. This was an excellent book, and I can’t wait for the next book in the series.
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
“Don’t let your past dictate who you are in the future. We all have a past, some of it we’re proud of, other bits not so much. That doesn’t make us good or bad - only our choices from now on do.”

Once again Kennedy L. Mitchell thrusts readers into the dark underbelly of crime, and brings us alongside the good guys that keep us safe. I have long been a huge fan of how Mitchell pulls readers into the story seemingly mid-crime. And this is no different. Immediately, you will be enamored with Gray. This man has seen the darkest dirtiest parts of humanity. When his latest assignment ends and it requires him to find a safe hiding location this former Marine finds himself on a ranch in the middle of Texas with only tennis shoes. I adored his take of not only the landscape but the workings of the ranch. It takes no time before he is enamored with the ranch owner, Anne and jumps into help.
And then there is Anne, we got to meet this feisty heroine in the Guarded by the Marshall and I was so excited to see she was getting a book! This heroine is no wilting wallflower. She is tough as nails and not afraid of some serious hard work. This woman is fierce, tough enough to put any man in his place, and smart as a whip. She is one serious badass Texas rancher. But after losing her dad she is lonely. And her lackluster love life is taking a toll on her. Everyone she finds doesn’t seem to get her. That is until Gray waltzes onto the ranch and into her life.
I love how these two worked together side by side on the ranch, how a big burly tough former Marine followed Ann’s lead and just did what needed to be done. The sexual tension rolled off these two in waves. Gray dominated and watched Ann submit to him. HOT DAMN. Mitchell can write an extremly hot sex scene, but my Kindle almost lit on fire (during a burn ban) when it was them, some cows, and beautifully starry sky. These two were able to give each other exactly what they each needed: control, freedom, and a partnership. They compliment each other beautifully. But when their pasts come back in full force, how they stand by each other really warmed my heart. If romantic suspense is your cup of tea, I would highly recommend this series. I am so eager for more books in this series!

Cherished by the Agent is the second book in the In Clear Sight series. I haven't read book one, so this could be read as a standalone. However, I enjoyed this book so much that I want to go back and read book one.
This book is about Grayson and Anne and is told from both of their points of view. Grayson is an undercover DEA agent, and when something happens he is forced to go into witness protection. When he gets to where he has to go he meets Anne. A woman who won't take anything from anyone. She works at the place he is staying, and both characters start to have an attraction for each other.
Grayson starts to help Anne, as he has nothing to do, but he has to stay hidden from everyone. I loved the banter between the characters, and getting to know them, as they got to know each other.
What happens when Anne figures out who Grayson really is, will his safety be in jeopardy? Will the person who put Grayson into hiding be found? Will Grayson and Anne get a happy ending?
I enjoyed this book, and want to continue with this series.

I love suspense romance and this series is checking all the boxes!
Cherished by the Agent is a story about an opposites attract couple; Gray who is an ex-DEA agent entering witsec and Anne who is an alpaca loving rancher. They aren't supposed to ask questions but the draw between these two is something they can't ignore.
Gray is gruff and an extreme alpha who also isn't afraid to let Anne lead when it comes to her ranch. He has been living a certain lifestyle he hated to get the bad guy for so long he has to learn how to be himself again and live with all that he has done. Anne is such a strong female character and she has been doing it on her own for so long it's great to see her relax a bit. They just fit perfect together and when push comes to shove they don't back down either. Excellent read!

I loved this! Anne and Grayson were great characters individually and I loved the sex scenes between them (as I always do with Mitchell’s writing)!
Anne is fiercely independent and I loved seeing Gray “relax” and change his outlook on his life while working with Anne

Gray and Anne's story was awesome. Gray came to stay with her to hide from his past on her farm. One look at her and he knew he had to have her. She thought he was hot when she first saw him with his bad boy look and tattoos. Their story has a happy ending. Can't wait for the other books from this series to come out!
