Jagged Edge

The Arsenal, Book 1

By: Cara Carnes

Narrated by: Olivia Amayo

Mary "The Edge" Reynolds is the most sought-after back-office operative around - the creative genius pulling the ultimate badasses out of impossible situations. She’s never failed on a mission, and she’s not about to fail on the most important mission ever - keeping her newly designed security system safe. Relying on others isn’t in her nature, but the newly formed Arsenal is her only hope for escape when she’s kidnapped.

She is the Edge.

The Edge never breaks.

Never quits.

Dylan Mason and his brothers have put everything on the line to form The Arsenal. When the paramilitary arena is rocked by Edge’s capture, he’ll do whatever it takes to get the fearless operative back, but his wary heart isn’t ready to handle the vulnerable woman buried beneath the hardened shell. Getting her back was simple. Keeping her and her "security system" HERA out of enemy hands is another story.

Together they must hunt down the faction behind her capture and subsequent torture to keep HERA from becoming an unstoppable terroristic threat. What they uncover could destroy them both.

Storyline great- heroine’s negative talk image nauseating

The storyline is great,however, the goal of any book is to immerse reader. Mary’s character frustrated me and brought me out of the world of the Arsenal. She was supposed to be a bad ass but her continuous negative self talk was TOO much plus the narrator’s voice lacked personality. She had me wanting to throw my pillow!

review

Olivia Amayo did a fantastic job narrating a great story. I enjoy the Arsenal series I reread the series all the time while I wait for the next book to come out now I can listen also . I will be getting the series as it comes out on Audio. Thank you Cara Carnes for a great series

Be patient

The beginning was so mixup and slow I almost returned it. I enjoyed the balance of it was not the normal I MAN IM IN CHARGE.

Love stories that women start off strong, stay strong and are not maintain by a man body parts.

“Nerdy” girl gets the guy!

Sweet love story.
Strong characters and story line. Lots of edge of your seat action and a plot twist you won’t see coming! Can’t wait for the next book!!

Amazing Start to the series

I grabbed this book from Amazon when it was free but I also purchased the audiobook copy of it as well and I am sooooo glad I did. The narrator, Olivia Amayo, did a phenomenal job with bringing this story to life.

There were parts of this book that gutted me, I mean take this quote for instance: “I still hear your words from that night. I’ve gotta know you hear me, Mary. You are not disposable. You are more than Edge. So, give whatever you’ve gotta give of yourself so Edge can do her thing, but when I ask you to, step back and settle into the calm, be Mary. She’s who I’m protecting, not Edge.”
Did you catch the part where Mary thinks she's disposable, seriously?!?! Heart wrenching, truly heart wrenching.
