After finishing the book I saw that reading the book Secret Vendetta may give some context with this book. I didn’t read Secret Vendetta and although it sounds interesting the book Crossfire didn’t need any explanation. This book has CIA agent Grayson investigating and trying to take down a very elusive criminal. At a meeting where he is supposed to eliminate this man Ivy innocently appears and he is unable to complete his task. Now Grayson is determined to find out if she is involved in criminal activity or just an innocent bystander. Especially because Ivy very easily beat up and took down a large man during this meeting. The story is filled with lots of mystery, suspense and twists and turns. I wouldn’t call this a true romantic suspense book. The romance seemed to occur very quickly but it’s wasn’t a big part of the story. This is the first book of a duet and it ends on a cliffhanger.
