 This series bring a new spice on Miss Bennett works. It has this Ocean Twelve twist on it. And I do enjoy it very much. The descriptive sex is on the background. The run and catch between Saint and Sin is so fun to read. I do also like their name. Saint and Sin. They do a match meet in heaven. Just because of their name.

It is short book. I do not know if it is categorize for novella or full length novel. Saint and Sin had history together. They both international thief who specialized in stealing high class material. They worked together and one day Sin 'betray' Saint. Saint ends up in jail. Then the story begins with that catch and run. 

The character develop well enough. Their chemistry is hot. Overall I do enjoy this book very much.

I’m so glad I picked up Code Name: Heist! This was a great second chance romance, with such a good heist plot as well. I love reading romantic suspense novels where the suspense aspect actually is a big part of the story, and this book did it so well. Saint and Sin are great together, with everything they go through.

Welcome to another installment of the Jameson Force series.

This is a fast paced, dangerous and sexy story set in the underworld of heists and illegal doings.

Saint and Sin -the ones that got away - are reunited for one last shebang, and sparks sure do fly. I couldn't wait to flick each page to see where Ms Bennett would take the story.

It was like reading a heist movie, and as I was reading, I was imagining it on a screen.

There were also some sadder moments, that I am hopeful we will get more of the story in the future.

An enjoyable read, and I can't wait for the next installment.
















Holy smokes this book was filled with so much drama, suspense, action and a second chance love story that I couldn't help but inhale page after page of this amazing story! Saint a former thief is new to the Jameson team but ends up on a job where he is thrown back into his former lifestyle, as well as, coming face to face with his former love. Sin regrets what happened between her and Saint but felt she was saving his life; however, the real question is will she be forgiven and can they rekindle their romance? If you've enjoyed the Jameson Security series so far then you'll definitely enjoy this book, it quickly became one of my favorites in this series! If you love a great second chance romance than be prepared to immerse yourself in this story that you won't want to end.

Wow this author does it again. What a fab story

Joe Arden and Mackenzie Cartwright were awesome as Saint and Sin! I was especially impressed by Mackenzie Cartwright's ability to voice accents so well and Joe Arden's talent for making each of the characters (male or female) distinguishable and unique. I have listened to other titles by both of these narrators before, but this is the first time hearing them together. What a wonderful narrating duo!

*****

Code Name: Heist had it all - action, suspense, and a sexy second chance romance. Sawyer Bennett did an excellent job of describing and introducing readers to the world of high end thieves. We met Saint in the previous book, but Code Name: Heist can be read as a standalone.

I really enjoyed Saint and Sindaria's (Sin) story. They have a complicated history, but I loved that from the start they only have eyes for each other. They both were willing to forgive and change for the other and I appreciated that for the most part, they dealt with their issues maturely and openly. Even the questionable decisions were made from a place of love. There's plenty of action between these two thanks to some forced proximity, and I loved what a team these two were. They excelled in the face of danger and throw in some seriously hot sexy times and I was sold. There is some drama at the end, but it's resolved quickly and the epilogue was so sweet. It really felt perfect after everything Saint and Sin had been through.

It isn't all fun and games in this one though, and there is definitely some sadness for the Jamison family. I enjoyed catching up and getting updates on old characters/couples in the series, but also the Cold Fury crossover. I'm very interested to find out more about the final Fournier brother, Malik. This is a fast paced, action filled romance that is sure to be a hit with fans of the series!

*I voluntarily read an advance review copy of this book*

I loved this story! It is full of action and suspense. Don’t get me wrong there is romance as well...actually a second chance romance. This is just filled with wonderful characters and the storyline is incredible. I was on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what was going to happen next.

I really enjoyed the two main characters. They each have interesting skills for their trade. I loved getting to know their personalities as well as watch them rekindle a lost love. i especially liked the way that Saint dresses himself up all the time. I easily pictured him in my brain. I found the crew at the Jameson Security to be intriguing as well. Not to mention all the thieves we were introduced to. I would probably be staring at them In awe of their skills.

This is my first book in this series. I know will be going back to read the others. I did listen to this on audio. Joe Arden and Mackenzie Cartwright did a wonderful job. He played an American and Mackenzie played a Brit. So that was fun to listen to.

This was a great quick read! Can’t wait for the next book to come out!! I am really enjoying the whole series! They are what a suspenseful romance should be!!

Sawyer Bennett is truly one of my favorite authors. She writes hockey gods like no other. Seriously, you need to check out her Cold Fury Hockey and Arizona Vengeance series. While I’m enjoying the Jameson Force Security series, it’s not up to the standards I have set in my mind for this author.

The premise of this story is unique. Saint is a recovering thief, so to speak. He was betrayed by Sin, a current thief. Now that Saint has gone straight, he’s asked to infiltrate a crime ring that has been stealing artwork in Europe. Danger, fun, excitement. Throw in his old flame Sin being part of said crime ring, and you also have romance thrown in for good measure.

I love both Saint and Sin, but just never felt their chemistry. Which is such a bummer when I really depend on this author to bring the heat. They are both such morally good people. I know, I know…that’s an odd thing to say due to their chosen profession. But as we get to know them both, we see they both have their reasons. They’re not innocent by any stretch of the imagination, but they do have a sort of honor. I wanted to feel their connection, I was rooting for them the whole time. It just never manifested for me.

Again, the storyline is good. There is also a major shake-up at Jameson Security that really hits all of the men and women who work there hard. That particular storyline is set up to be deep and intense when it’s finally told. I still love all the characters involved in this series. Please don’t pass this one up. Sometimes I find it hard to give a fair review to authors I adore because I feel like I judge them more harshly than others; my expectations are higher. So,take that for what it’s worth.
