Genre: Romantic Suspense

Book Description:

Meet Roman Smith: Shopkeeper by Day. Assassin by Night.

The undercover Russian contract killer has never turned down an assignment that rids the world of scum... until his latest job targets an innocent man. Refusing is not an option, because of Everly Andrews, the sexy southern belle who saved him from dying. She's completely unaware of his double life, but has been marked as next on the kill list should he fail. Only, what The Bratva doesn't know—there’s nothing Roman won’t do to keep Everly safe. Drugged and deposited in a hotel in Prague, Roman must be on guard at all times in order to protect Everly, but the countdown has begun, and it won't stop until his next target, or Everly, is terminated. Can Roman protect Everly until he can eliminate the threat to her life?

**Formerly The Request Series. Prime Target includes all three books from The Request Series.





REVIEW

I have long been a fan of this author's writing and this book is just as good if not better than some of her others. The love story/romance are still wonderfully written as only MV can do but the gritty, danger filled conflict was intensely captivating and kept me engaged from start to finish.

Everly is a small town girl with a huge crush on the new rare bookstore owner. She loves everything about the man from his good looks to his British accent and stops in once a week to pick up the romance novels he specially orders for her. Everly continues her flirty banter with Roman hoping he will finally realize she is interested but things just remain at a stand still. That is until she rescues him from bleeding to death on his shop floor.

Roman Smith is definitely not who Everly thinks he is therefore he has kept his distance romantically speaking. The rare books store is just a front for his actual occupation of being a top assassin in the Russian Bratva. His actual name is Nikolai Romanov and now that Everly is in danger he whisks her away to keep her safe from "the other bad guys". Regardless of the distance they have traveled or the danger they find themselves in they can't seem to deny the attraction that they share for one another.

Loved this book and many of the other characters we got to meet. So glad it is the start of a new series from MV and can't wait to read more about these characters and their cohorts :)
