Viable Threat by Julie Rowe

5.0

Dr. Ava Lloyd works for the CDC, investigating outbreaks . Walter Rivers has been sent to be her bodyguard/protector. But the outbreak is more than it seems, it's also a domestic terrorism event. One with more than one agenda on the go. This book is not for those who do not enjoy a fast paced, action filled, tense thriller type of romantic suspense!

Rivers (no way will Walter ever fit this guy as a name!) ALPHA, bada$$, strong and silent type! He and Ava may have a fast and fiery attraction. Some may find it weird that there would be sexy times during a crisis but what other way than to feel alive and have something tangible to fight for?? It's not like the sex is all the time, in fact the first mild passionate clinch is almost at the halfway point!

There are ulterior motives, alternate agendas, red herrings galore. The plot is mighty tightly packed with action. I felt it read a bit like a movie. I am a science geek, with the degree to back it up, but not an academic go Google was a good reference tool for anything that got me lost.
