The Shadow Unit series is about a covert anti-terrorism task force formed between the UK and US. Connor Finley and Shawn Weller are partners, on the job and off. This first book in the series is about their undercover work to take down an arms dealer (Jai) and what each must do and overcome to accomplish that task.
Both MC's go undercover, Connor is hired as security in Jai's Club and Shawn becomes his lover. Going into the mission, they didn't know that Jai controls the man he's with by getting him hooked on drugs and controlling the supplies. Shawn is being given heroin daily and has to struggle through his addiction to complete the mission. Connor is torn apart watching Shawn become more addicted. But, regardless of the cost, they are able to stop the arms' deal and take care of Jai and his associates. And Connor works to bring Shawn back to him.
This is the first book from this author I have read and I was pleasantly surprised. I had some trouble getting into the book in the beginning and I definitely did not buy the premise or actions of this unit but it is fiction, so it doesn't have to be true. It's not a light-hearted read but once I was pulled into the book, I couldn't stop reading!
Rating: 4 stars
