Four reluctant stars. The character Garth was really stupid. Other than that, good story, I loved the humor among the other ops, had some laugh out loud moments with them at the end. Garth, though, was an idiot.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Garth. I love that Ms. Roth gave us his history so that we could better understand where he was coming from. His brother, twin at that, was as far from good as one could be and Garth had to accept that he could no longer help him. And he was not expecting Nicolette. And boy was she not expecting Garth. Garth allowed the sassy, sexy femme fatale to make an entrance, the one she never knew she had. I love that Garth allowed a different and more carefree Nicolette to open her heart. I found myself chuckling out loud at the antics of Garth and Auberi. You would think that males as old as they were would find a way past their issues but the enjoyment their friends had at their expense was hysterical. Ms. Roth again gives us a well written and enjoyable read. It is full of love, laughter and kick-ass action. I can't wait to see where she will take us next in this wonderful world she has created.

Entertaining!
Garth and Nicolette’s story was so action packed! I really dislike that these males are all such yucky man whores; it would be nice if one or two of them were a little more discerning, or had gotten tired of it and been picky for a century or two. Aside from that, I loved the story. It was so entertaining, full of action, and kept me on my toes. The twist about Grid at the end was interesting and I was riveted through the whole scene. I absolutely love this series and can’t wait for more!

Audible version - not listed as edition yet I really enjoyed this one.
Viking Garth Ingersson!! He has a serious issue with Auberi from the Fang Gang. Auberi tried to kill his twin brother Grid ... back before Garth realizes how evil his brother actually is. Garth and Auberi cannot be in the same room without fights breaking out.
This is another flash back, where Garth & Auberi were on the same mission, where they discovered a facility testing on babies/children. Garth instantly latches on to a baby girl who's in trouble, and forces Auberi to help her.
Garth ends up in Savannah, tracking his evil twin ... Nicolette (the baby all grown up) lives with her best friend Clara (the little girl so protective of the baby at the facility). Nicolette is clueless about what she is, and where she came from. Clara, seems to be more clued in to what they are ... thanks to her secretive job.
Nicolette is a teacher, and notices a strange vibe man watching her. Then up pops another dude, who tries to jedi-mind trick her into going home. Wheeler, turns out to be a friend of their friend Cody - her one stab at a relationship/turned friendship. She ignores him, and picks up her custom made - any allergy-friendly muffins. Then, she literally runs into Garth, crushing her muffins ... and swearing he had his hair braided ... and where the heck did the scar go ... but she's not picking up a scary vibe. Nope, she's instantly hot and bothered by this guy.
Then it's on. There's a lot of cat and mouse, insta-attraction ... then Garth pulls a Malik, he mates Nicolette - then completely looses control of his wolf, runs from her to protect her - straight into his brother lurking outside. His team contains him, and keeps him locked up for days - and they're being entertained by fights between Garth and Aubrie. Then, they get their next case. Lambrose's niece is missing ... as well as another girl. Garth and the team realize Nicolette is Lambrose's niece ... and then they all realize Garth was telling the truth, and she's actually his mate.
Does he get to her in time, to save her from his brother and the Corporation??

I consider reading these books again in chronological order instead of book number in the individual series. While every book is good in itself, I feel like it would be better read in the overall context of all the related series...

Act of Brotherhood (Immortal Ops: PSI-Ops #6) by Mandy M. Roth is Garth Ingersson story. He is an ancient Viking and team leader of his brothers in arms. Whilst he has acted to help those in need his twin has turned to the side of evil and it is just a matter of time before there is a show down. Garth literally bumps into his mate in the most unlikely of circumstances and soon finds out that she has been the object of his brothers’ obsession. Will evil finally win or will it be defeated? Mandy ensured all of the favourites were in this book and back to their hilarious wit and antics.

Vikings ahoy! What do you get when you take one drop dead sexy, Alpha male Viking shifter and add in an eclectic mix of shifters, vampires and Fae? A fantabulous read!
Garth has been through the wringer recently, finding out your brother is Evil Incarnate can do that to a chap! But when he is sent off to a babysitting job, he bumps into the lovely Nicolette. She is everything he shouldn't want; human, deals with children and has an unhealthy taste for grey goop!
The story starts with Garth and his team finding a group of children from the Asia Project and the weird reaction garth and Auberi have to one particular little girl. Fast forward 2 decades and the that little girl is about to do what no one else could - make Auberi and Garth cooperate!
Grid is lurking and some of the scenes with him are quite chilling. Similarly the scenes with the children made me tear up. I loved the interaction between all the Ops guys and Auberi and Garth are totally oil and water. My loyalties are divided between Gram and Striker as to who is my favourite Scot. Got to be patriotic and make them my funniest Ops guys!
