SAVING LIVES IS HISMISSION. In Hidden Agendas by Lora Leigh, tough-as-nails Navy SEAL Kell Kreiger is the best there is at searching, rescuing, and taking no prisoners...yet even the rush of ever-more dangerous missions isn't enough to satisfy him. Haunted by a tortured past, Kell seeks distraction in a secret world of dark intimacies. But when Emily Stanton, the one ray of light in Kell's shadowy existence, is pursued by a ruthless drug lord, the rules of the game suddenly changeâ??and Kell will have to go deeper undercover than he ever imagined... SAVING HER IS HIS PASSION. Emily has loved Kell ever since her father, a prominent politician, rescued him from a brutal life on the streets. They were kids then, too young to act on what was growing between them...but now that Emily is ready, the handsome, headstrong SEAL has decided he's no good for her. Ever since he rescued her from Diego Fuentes' compound, Kell's only duty has been to keep Emily safe. But Fuentes isn't finished with Emilyâ??or Kell. And to protect Emily, Kell has no choice but to lay himselfâ??body, soul, and secretsâ??bare...and fight against evil with all his… (altro)
I don't know why I picked that one from the series, but boy I'm glad I did! Kell is everything an alpha-hero needs to be and Emily, though she was treated by everyone like she was a fragile princess, certainly didn't act like one.
I enjoyed it very much and now I can't start the series from the beginning because I'm itching to read Ian's story; I couldn't help but fall for him... ( )
Senator's daughter and the SEAL who is assigned to guard her. They've been hot for each other for awhile, now the heat is turned up and they come together. While trying to keep her safe. ( )
Tired of her father’s overprotectiveness and interference in her romantic relationships, Emily Stanton wants more for her life. Enter Navy SEAL, Kell Krieger, the one man Emily has always wanted, but could never have … until now, when a dangerous drug lord has set his sights on her and Kell is the only one standing in his way…
The best installment in a series that has been pretty lackluster.
Kell and Emily have sensual and steamy chemistry alongside an emotional attachment that has been missing in the previous books. Although Kell’s backstory is more detailed than that of the heroes in the first two books, it still isn’t as developed as it should be. Nevertheless, it adds another layer of depth to his character and does more to explain his possessiveness than Reno’s and Clint’s.
Emily desire for independence and her new found backbone make her a likable heroine. She does have one or two TSTL moments but considering the circumstances she can be forgiven.
The suspense plot has some good twists and turns although I’m still unclear as to Fuentes’s true agenda. Moreover, are we suddenly supposed to see him as the lesser of evils because there are some heinous crimes that he will not commit?
The identity of Fuentes’s son came as no surprise though and it will be interesting ton see where Leigh takes this in the next book. ( )

(page 165-166)
Assassin and/or abductor moving in. Location, D.C. Terms ate as follows. Senator and/or daughter. Contact sent to senator to resign has been ignored. Fuentes contact requires action. Beware. Once in D.C., contact will be informing tool of foolproof method of capturing or killing daughter. Kidnapping is highest possibility at this point to use as leverage. Watch your six while hobnobbing because others are watching it as well.
