Hidden in plain sight
Former Marine sniper and current NSA agent Jack Stone has a new face to go with his new identity. But he still has the same tortured memories—which include the woman he let get away years ago, when they were teenagers. Now his new assignment in Miami will put him so close to the woman he’s never been able to forget, he could reach out and touch her—if only she weren’t under suspicion.
When Sophie Moreno uncovers evidence linking the medical supply company she works for with arms smuggling—and worse—she doesn’t know who to turn to. After a shocking betrayal, she realizes the only person she can trust is a mysterious new person in the company—a man with hauntingly familiar eyes.
As Sophie questions her intense attraction to this man and Jack struggles not to blow his cover, the two of them must race against the clock to stop terrorists from killing scores of people—starting with them.Hidden in plain sight

REVIEW:
3.25 Hearts I enjoyed Targeted but was not in love with it. I liked Jack & Sophie well enough but never fully connected with them. Targeted was good don’t get me wrong. The tension between Jack & Sophie was electric. Fueled more by the fact that they have a past that she is not aware of. The story line is filled with danger, tension and a heavy dose of suspense. But for me there was not a huge spark of excitement. It could have been my mood, the weather, stress who knows. But even with that I still did enjoy the new world the Katie has created and I am looking forward to the next Deadly Ops story.
