emotional mysterious medium-paced

3.5

Retribution is the first book in a trio about The Donaghey Brothers. Kim is an undercover agent working with the two brothers. Lorcan hired her to be a bodyguard and find out who killed their father but, he believes that his brother Finn did it. Finn said he didn’t do it but he won’t tell his brother and the agency she works for said the Russians.  Both of the brothers are protective and strong willed men Finn is a little tougher to figure out. He very deceptive at times and very evasive. Lorcan is starting to develop feeling for Kim so he appears more open and willing to talk. Now in the midst of all this Kim is also trying to investigate the death of her stepbrother because somehow he is tied with Finn since they fought at the same place. Kim has a handler named Malik that may or may not be trustworthy or at least not completely truthful. This story is a slow burn. In fact I would classify it as a mystery romance since the romance part happened almost at the last 1/3 of the book. I enjoyed the mystery wanted more romance I’m curious about the next two books because the focus primarily on Finn and his love interest Carys. Looking for a mafia mystery that has several levels with lots of twists and turns, you’ve found it.
