Blurb: As former NSA, Dayton (Day) Ingram has national security chops and now works as a technical analyst for Scorpion. He longs for fieldwork, and scuttling an attack gives him his chance. He’s smart, multilingual, and a technological wizard. But his opportunity comes with a hitch—a partner, Knighton (Knight), who is a real mystery. Despite countless hours of research, Day can find nothing on the agent, including his first name!
Former Marine Knight crawled into a bottle after losing his family. After drying out, he’s offered one last chance: along with Day, stop a terrorist threat from the Yucatan. To get there without drawing suspicion, Day and Knight board a gay cruise, where the deeply closeted Day and equally closeted Knight must pose as a couple. Tensions run high as Knight communicates very little and Day bristles at Knight’s heavy-handed need for control.
But after drinking too much, Day and Knight wake up in bed. Together. As they near their destination, they must learn to trust and rely on each other to infiltrate the terrorist camp and neutralize the plot aimed at the US’s technological infrastructure, if they hope to have a life after the mission. One that might include each other.
Review: This is a great start to what looks to be a new series. Knight is finally getting back into the saddle after the loss of his wife and child. After burying himself in the bottle and in the records department, he has now been assigned a field job and is being partnered with Day.
Day is the newbie finally getting his first field assignment. At first glance, these two appear a different as night and day, lol. But, as the story progresses, we see that is far from the case and they, in fact, have much in common. The first being that, up to this point, they have both remained deeply closeted, though for somewhat different reasons.
Knight is somewhat of an ass, but Day calls him out on it every time, doesn’t take any crap and actually doles some of his own right back. So, they are gay men, pretending to be straight, pretending to be gay men undercover on a gay cruise as a way to enter the country of their target. These guys are quite funny at times, super sexy at others. I loved their “first” time together, as much as the others. They definitely had some good chemistry going on. But, is it only a fling? A matter of circumstance? Or could it be more? These guys make a great team, and I really enjoyed their banter and senses of humor.
The actual mission was rather quick but added some extra excitement. There are clues gained to help with the mystery behind the deaths of Knight’s family, but he is unable to get very far, and his need for vengeance, justice and revenge for what was lost remains strong.
Knight had the biggest struggle in this story with the loss of his family, feeling he was betraying them by being with Day and actually accepting actually acting upon a gay relationship. Even though he grabs hold before it’s too late, there are still many open ends needing to pan out, and I’m looking forward to seeing how this partnership/relationship plays out in the follow up story(ies).
Overall Impression: I really liked it
