Book Review: Dangerous Lies (Shades of Leverage, #2) by Claudia Shelton

Dangerous Lies (Shades of Leverage, #2)
Title:  Dangerous Lies (Shades of Leverage, #2)

Author: Claudia Shelton

Stars: 3 1\2

Review:
While this is part of a series the story is also a stand alone. 
The story is a inta romance which seems to be a go to for romance\suspense author.  The characters are decently written with enough background for the story to make since. The story is a fast paced but details sometimes get a little lost.  While readers might enjoy that the pace of the story it could have been slowed down to add more details to the "twist" in the story.  I think if more times had been on the twist it would have been more of a shock for readers.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Entangled Publishing for the advance copy of Claudia Shelton Dangerous Lies

Synopsis:
To ex-Navy SEAL Mitch Granger, responsibility isn’t just a word. It’s his Code of Honor. But when assigned to protect Coercion Ten’s latest target, she challenges his authority, defies his rules, and wreaks havoc on his personal willpower. Fighting for her isn’t a problem. Giving his life for her isn’t a problem. Forgetting their world-stopping kiss? Definite problem. And if he can’t concentrate solely on keeping her safe, it may cost them both their lives.

Journalist Liz Walkert’s missing father sent her a cryptic message that she was in danger. What he didn’t tell her was why. Unbeknownst to Liz, her family has been in Witness Protection all her life. Mitch may be her bodyguard, but his protection comes close to being control, the one thing she has none of in his presence. After a kidnap attempt and a narrow escape from attacking CT forces, they both realize they’re going to need to focus on the mission and fight their attraction if they have any hope of surviving.
