Love and Let Spy

Canadian operative Ben Parker met the woman of his dreams while working undercover. That operation, to take down Emmanuel Huisman, was the singular focus of his life until he met Maggie. Now the hunt for his former childhood friend turned international terrorist often feels like what he does in between chasing the magenta-haired American spy.

Kenzie Taggart knew Ben Parker was the one for her the minute she saw him. Unfortunately, he didn't meet her first. He met her twin sister, Kala, and they had to keep the secret. Everyone believes the operative known as Miss Magenta is one person. Kenzie can't tell the man she's falling in love with who she really is, but she also can't afford to lose him.

When faced with certain death, Kenzie reveals the truth about "Maggie" and they spend their last minutes in each other's arms. It was perfect, and then a miraculous rescue leaves them in a difficult situation. Kenzie couldn't be happier that Ben knows the truth, but so does Huisman. He's determined to burn down the world, but not before he ruins his old friend and his beloved. Ben and Kenzie might have to choose between saving the world and saving each other.

Contains mature themes.

Ben is lucky Kenzie is determined...

Lordy that boy is annoying. I mean of every single character she's ever created who may have been a bit stubborn (lol) in their determination to get it wrong and keep it wrong, that boy is the worst.

I absolutely love the new generation's books. The epilogues have been wonderful to see a few years out where we are with everyone. Most of all I absolutely love that the Bliss kids, Siren kids and M&M kids are all connected.

Love, love, love Lexi Blake and Ryan West!

Thumping Heart

Ian and Charlotte in the whole story - the OG’s rock. Ben and Kensie are thrilling and as always the ending THE BEST and my heart thumbing

I know that I say this every time - but man, I LOVE this series. I love this entire world - and it is slowly but surely becoming a gigantic world. We are now at well over 30 books in the main series and the spin offs and yet, I am still here for as many books as Ms. Blake wants to write.

This book had the last of Ian Taggert's daughters getting her HEA. It was Ben and Kenzie's book and was the last book in the next generation spin offs for the kids (now grown adults) in the US. Apparently, we are going to be moving to the next generation in the UK next -can't wait.

So, about this book. While I really liked it a whole lot, there were still things that bothered me a bit. Basically, it was the completely crazy responses and the hot and cold nature of Ben. His compete over reaction and his treatment of Kenzie after a certain phone call even seemed over the top to me. I seriously thought, "You've got to be kidding me." I'm not sure what reaction I was supposed to have, but it made me angry and did not FEEL organic. To me, it felt like it was something put into the story to create unnecessary drama.....so that did pull me out of the story a bit.

But, even with that, I still loved this book. I am glad we finally got some closure on an overarching story arc that has been going on for several books - it was time to close that storyline.

As always, it was great to see all of our favorite characters back on the page. I will never get enough of the Taggert's - any Big Tag is good for me.

Now begins the wait for the London gang :)

So much love for this book!! that epilogue hit me in the feels!

If I could rate this a 10 star I would! Not only did Lexi provide entertainment and intriguing plot, she hit us with a one two punch in the feels !

I wasn't expecting the epilogue to tear me up but of course it did in all the best ways.

Kenzie and Ben FINALLY get their HEA and of course lots of plot twists along the way.
