One of the most prolific writers I know, Rie Warren does it again this spring and summer by presenting to her fans four new books and it’s a series at that! And now, we have the final installment: BANE
A spin off from Warren’s “Bad Boys of Retribution MC” series, “Bad Boys of X-Ops” is usually set outside U.S. soil, in the world’s trouble hotspots. And running true to form, the bulk of Bane’s story happens south of the border where the boys were battling the drug cartels.
Artillery is hot and heavy. It seems that everywhere our heroes turn, someone is always trying to kill them! It’s an adrenaline rush from start to finish. I can’t turn the page fast enough!
Yet, there is also sweetness between Bane and Kiki, our two protagonists. Don’t get me wrong, the sex scenes are hot and heavy! Still, in between all the heavy breathing, it is easy to see that true love exists between them.
I believe that is the reason why I like reading Rie Warren. Aside from the fact that her books are my own guilty pleasure, it also appeals to the romantic side of me because Warren also put love center stage alongside all the high octane car chases and high energy gun fights.
Now, if you are wondering if Warren saved the best for last with “Bane
What is different with Bane is since it is the series finale; Warren tied all the loose ends and gave resolution to all the things that were purposely left hanging in the first three books.
That said, it is also sad for me to say goodbye to the Walker, Justice, Storm, Bane and the women who love them. They are on a league of their own! I hope Warren give them cameo roles in the next Carolina Bad Boys books (yes, books with an s as in plural). It will be nice to catch up with this crew.
Bane (Bad Boys of X-Ops Book 4)
Description
High stakes.
Low margins.
And everyone wants the woman I’m teamed up with dead.
BANE
Swagger, strut, snarl. Three things I can do with both eyes closed. Oh, and shoot the shit out of tangos. I always do my job, whether it’s patching up a fellow operative or taking down a serious threat. Apparently this time my job is to babysit Baby Spy.
We’ve followed the Los Reyes de Guerra cartel to the drug-trafficking capital, Mexico City. Our orders? Get in with the guerrillas and ultimately take them down. There’s only one problem—I have another set of mission directives linked to Kiki AKA Baby Spy.
Should be easy enough. Except it seems I’ve developed an unhealthy attraction to Kiki, along with an inconvenient conscience. She’s a wild woman with an unforgiving attitude that definitely makes me bone hard for her.
Nothing is as it appears, least of all Kiki Damage.
KIKI
Yeah. They call me Baby Spy. I’m fully aware the entire T-Zone team blames me for narking out a previous mission gone wrong. So, I can’t understand why the powers that be assigned me to this op. Or maybe I can, which just makes my situation even more dire.
I know Bane wants me, but I’m beginning to think he has an ulterior motive for keeping me close. And it’s not just the panty-melting hot sex with the big, gruff, silent killer. There’s something incredibly vulnerable in the way Bane watches me, like he’s looking for one last saving grace.
None of that matters now. When the situation heats up, I find out Bane’s real mission. I may have fallen in love with him, but it’s already too late. This entire web of lies goes a lot higher than any of us ever imagined, and my neck is only the first one on the line.
Bane includes a special series epilogue from the badass women: Jade, Tilly, Blaize, and Kiki.
