Publisher's summary

**Whitney Award Finalist for Best Suspense**

**Swoony Award Winner for Best Military Romance**

With everything on the line, can Nate trust the woman he wants by his side, or should he turn her in as a traitor?

When the most wanted terrorist in the world escapes from a high security prison, Nate Hughes is part of the task force sent to recapture him. During the mission, he meets Abby, a fellow investigator that seems to have it all together. He's drawn to her and hopes they can join forces, but when her past is revealed, loyalties are called into question. Could she have turned against the country she once held dear?

The CIA wants her captured and interrogated, but with a terrorist attack imminent, Abby may be the only person in a position to help them stop it. Nate must make a choice to either trust her or turn her in - but the wrong decision would clear the path for the largest attack on freedom the world has ever seen.

And time is running out.

Critic reviews

"An edgy page-turner...the brisk pace, the likeable characters, and the intensity of the plot makes this story a quick, highly suspenseful thrill ride and will leave romantic suspense fans begging for more!" (InD'Tale Magazine)

"Bellon has built a solid reputation as one of the top writers dealing with international espionage, military intelligence, and interaction between various world agencies. Her characters are strong, intelligent, and physically adept. Both Nate and Abby are characters the reader will find likable and realistic...." (Meridian Magazine)

Still Can't Catch Him

This is a high-octane story of Abby working to stop an awful terrorist who is trying to bring down important facilities in the world. Nate likes her but is not sure she is trustworthy. There is just the right about of suspense & excitement. I especially like the voice of Tristan. Course I love audible books because I can do other things while I listen to stories. I highly recommend this series. I was given this audible copy. This is my voluntary review.

Great series

This is a great series. I have really enjoyed this next book in an impressive series. The main characters quickly connect and make for a great fast pace and intense espionage thriller. Great narration. Heat level- sweet.

A must read!

Yet again, Julie Coulter Bellon, has created a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and make you fall in love with her characters. I absolutely loved this book!! Tristan Wright does a phenomal job narrating this book, portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. He is an amazing voice performer. This was a fantastic story involving SpecOps! Great mixture of character development, mystery, and action. Takes readers on an emotional and highly compelling journey. I can't wait to read/listen to book #5 of the Griffin Force series. Highly recommend listening (or reading if audiobooks aren’t your thing) this series.

Edge Of My Seat Story!!! Loved It!!!

Wowsers!!! I loved this one so much!

Nate and Abby meet for the first time at a high security prison trying to figure out how a high profile prisoner escaped. Nate is captived by her right away. They get along great, even though she's reserved and he's hoping that maybe they'll be able to work on the case together as it progresses further. But he has a big surprise in store for him in regards to Abby.

I was not expecting the plot twist from the beginning. I was like "Whaaaaaattt???!!!" *Rubs hands together gleefully* You're going to love it but be caught off guard like me!

These two were great together! I really liked watching them learn to trust each other, as well as their quick thinking in figuring out how to capture this prisoner again and stop a major attack!

Abby's history was heartbreaking but I loved her determination, even if it meant giving up everything to protect others. She's a fabulous character. I think her and Nate are my favorites of the series so far. But man, that's hard to say because all of these characters have been wonderful. And you get to see a lot more of them working together in this one.

I love the Griffin Force! I love the sense of family and trust and goodness within their ranks! They sure have a fan in me!

And it just makes me so happy that it's the same narrator for all of the books! He's great and does such a great job and has me wanting to look for more books that he's narrated.

Content: Clean. This book deals with talk of attacks (previous and upcoming) and trying to find escaped bad guys. The author was sensitive in her writing but did a great job with it. But a heads up that this book deals with suspense in case these things can be a trigger for you. There is nothing more than sweet kisses and no language.

Happy Listening!!!

draws you in from the beginning

This book draws you in from the beginning and doesn't let go until the very end. It has suspense, mystery, surprises and romance. Such vivid descriptions that I felt like I was in the room with Abby and Nate. Some twists and turns. Great ending. I listened to this book on audible. The narrator did a great job and IMO brought a great life to the author's descriptions.

Fantastic

Second Look is a fantastic clean suspenseful romance. It grabbed me from the beginning and captivated me until the end. This fast paced military romance kept me on the edge of my seat and has me excited to read more from this author. The narrator gave a wonderful performance and enhanced an already great story.

Hang on for the ride

This is the first book in the series I have listened to but it is the fourth in the series. There were a few parts that I thought would be explained later in the book, but it turns out they were quick references to the previous books. The references didn’t interfere with this book. The story was fast paced and exciting with a budding romance. The twists and turns keeps you listening carefully right up to the last words of the book. Can’t wait to hear what happen in book 5!

A great continuation for the Griffin Force!

When it comes to bad guys, there’s always another terrorist to vanquish. And the Griffin Force has their sights trained on a new target.

As much as military romance is not my usual genre, I truly have enjoyed the series and look forward to the next book in the series.

Sweet love story plus adventure

Abby was a little kick-butt. Nate a super friendly and kind man. He seemed a little naive to me, but I liked him. This was my first book I’ve read in this series but it was okay not having read the first three. I enjoy the author. I’d read others in the series. Abby and Nate made a great team and had a sweet love story.
