    About this audiobook

    Three months after rescuing Olivia Wolfe from danger, Aegis Security operative Landon Miller still can’t stop thinking about her, even though she’s off-limits in every way possible. Knowing he’s leaving Aegis and returning to the DIA soon, Landon decides it’s time for their flirty online relationship to end. But Olivia can’t stop thinking about Landon, either. On a whim, she takes a leave of absence from her teaching job to surprise him in Barcelona—and arrives to find a sexy redhead in his hotel room.

    Things aren’t always what they seem, though. Landon’s would-be one-night stand is really a member of the Red Brotherhood, a terrorist group targeting Landon for information on a lethal bioweapon. And now Olivia is unwittingly ensnared in their deadly plot, too. Forget escaping emotionally unscathed; Olivia just wants to make it home alive. Yet to survive, she’ll have to put her trust in the very man who not only broke her heart, but whose lies now threaten both their lives.

    In the second book in bestselling author Elisabeth Naughton’s popular Aegis series, heart-pounding suspense stirs up deliciously sizzling romance.

    Elisabeth Naughton

    Before topping multiple bestseller lists—including those of the New York Times, USA Today, and the Wall Street Journal—Elisabeth Naughton taught middle-school science. A voracious reader, she soon discovered she had a knack for creating stories with a chemistry of their own. The spark turned into a flame, and Naughton now writes full-time. Her books have been nominated for some of the industry’s most prestigious awards, such as the RITA and Golden Heart Awards from Romance Writers of America, the Australian Romance Readers Award, and the Golden Leaf Award. When not dreaming up new stories, Naughton can be found spending time with her husband and three children in their western Oregon home. Unspeakable is the third book in her Deadly Secrets series, following Protected, Gone, and Repressed, which was a 2017 RITA winner in romantic suspense.

      I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

      Aegis Security is fast becoming another of my favorite series from Elisabeth Naughton. She knows how to draw you into her stories and keep you hooked and on the edge of your seat until the last word. In spite of being a character who can kill with his bare hands, Ms Naughton makes us fall in love with Landon quite easily. As for Olivia I found myself applauding her character on more than one occasion. Can't wait till the next book is out.

      ****Full Review****

      I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

      Olivia is experiencing a little bit of wrong place and wrong time. After being taken hostage because of issues to do with her CIA sister Eve and then rescued by one hot operative named Landon (Extreme Measures), Olivia's normal staid existence isn't cutting it anymore. With months of flirty texting back and forth between them, Olivia decides to surprise visit Landon in Spain where he is just finishing up a job. The surprise is on her though when a sexy woman appears in his hotel room and Olivia finds herself taken hostage once again as she runs down the street trying to get away from Landon. Landon barely has time to process Olivia showing up in Spain before he is battling a lethal woman in his hotel room and then taken in a van with Olivia. Landon and Olivia not only fight for survival but for a chance to prove to one another what they're really made of.
       
      The suspense aspect of this gets rolling right away, the Red Brotherhood terrorist group makes a splash and our characters are running and fighting for their lives. Not only is a highly feared terrorist group involved but also a world defining serum that can be injected into a human body that would be able to track them undetected (think political leaders and knowing exactly where they are for assassination purposes). Dani, a girl that Landon once saved, is the only one who can create the antidote and perfect the serum and only he knows where she is, hence the abduction and leverage Olivia can provide. The Red Brotherhood injects Olivia with the serum to force Landon to travel to Dani for the antidote, the serum kills whoever is injected with it right now, thus revealing her hideout. A bunch of secondary characters from the previous book and future books make appearances (mostly operatives in the Aegis Security Agency) and help Landon and Olivia fight the good fight. Is this all a wee bit farfetched and possibly not very accurate? Yes, but Jason Statham movies are extremely popular for a reason, they are exciting and fun. If you're willing to roll with this story it will provide a quick rip roaring good time.
       
      As with the suspense scenes, the sex scenes don't mess around and come up quick. There is a little bit of missed them falling in love as Olivia and Landon met in the previous book but the author does a credible job of showing and telling why these two characters feel so connected to one another. Olivia has a few annoying moments when she balks at the killing and violence (if I'm ever taken hostage by a terrorist group feel free to snap as many necks as you need to free me) of it all, making it a bit heavy handed with her innocence and goodness. She also has a couple TSTL moments with unnecessarily endangering herself, listen to the professional lady! Landon is the star of the show in this book, think of it as if Quinn from Homeland got placed in a romance story. He's a trained assassin who has had emotion systematically trained out of him but after meeting Olivia his heart is starting to beat again. He is strong, capable, and interesting to follow and read about. Olivia and Landon are very black and white but together they work.
       
      If you like action movies with some precision timed sex scenes are willing to go with the flow and want a quick thrilling read, Lethal Consequence is for you. There seems to be plenty of heroes in the wings too, I’m especially going to be on the lookout for Jake the boss and Marley the sassy assistant's book.


      *I was able to mention Jason Statham and Quinn from Homeland in one review! Such a big win for me :)

    • 5/5
      This was the first contemporary book I've read by Elisabeth Naughton, and this action/suspenses/romance was an excellent read and I thoroughly enjoyed it.The story is about Landon, a DIA operator who taking time off and working for Aegis Security. And Olivia, who is the young woman he rescued 3 month's before. Since that time Landon went back to his highly secret, and dangerous job, and Olivia, who is a drama teacher, went back to teaching, and they began occasionally texting each other.Landon knew it was wrong, but he couldn't stop himself, he had to know she was ok!Things really become complicated when Olivia decides to surprise Landon by turning up in Spain to see him when the bad guys have the mark on him and they ended up taking them both. Olivia's sister also works for Aegis is quickly on the case searching for them both, the suspense and excitement begins while the relationship between them doesn't get any where, just smoulders in the background, with Olivia pushing and Landon backing away. Will they ever give in to their true feelings? they both have a lot of major issues to conquer, can they both heal each other? There's action from both our hero's which is great to see. And the pages sizzle when the passion gets hot.After the thrills and excitement from this story I think I may have to go back one and read the first book from this series as I'm really looking forward to #3 and reconnecting with the Aegis Security team. I highly recommend this book if you love a little action and suspense with your romance. 5/5
