Animal Psychic Kira Donovan has found that the heat is a matter of life and death. The time has come in the form of Tom Knight; a man who is a natural born predator and determined to bring Kira, kicking and screaming if need be, into ACRO: Agency of Covert, Rare Operatives. What they get is primal heat full of passion and lust but distrust looms between them once Kira finds out Tom’s mission to bring into ACRO. Soon both are racing against the clock as darkness gathers around Kira and Tom has to fight to protect the woman he calls his own!

UNLEASHING THE STORM is from the duo Stephanie Taylor and Larissa Ione who write as Sydney Croft. I never read the first book, Riding the Storm and after reading UNLEASHING THE STORM, I am definitely grabbing it. The fast pace, sheer animal magnetism between characters and the power of love and lust rule between the pages of this second book in the ACRO Series. Get ready to meet the agents of ACRO: The Agency of Covert rare Operatives bent on saving the world from a global war.

Meet Kira Donovan, a woman who is an animal psychic and feels the call of the heat each year. It comes at the right time because Kira is on ACRO’s radar and they will do anything to get her into their fold, including sending out the man who will do anything to bring her in, kicking and screaming if necessary. Tom Knight, men who is a natural born predator and on the mission to bring Kira in with no problems; well make that until he meets the one woman who stirs his senses and he never imagines the fire she ignites with one touch. All this reviewer can say is hot damn! These two characters are a fiery combustion and it was all this reviewer can do to fan herself as I read UNLEASHING THE STORM. With each page, these two had so many sparks it was a miracle that there wasn’t a fire started while reading this one.

Add in a mysterious covert operation, powerful emotions, a global war and a darkness determined to rule the world. This is definitely one of those can not put down books that had this reviewer running to grab the first book, RIDING THE STORM and seeing when other books in the ACRO series is coming out. MS. Croft delivers a spine tingling fast paced ride once the reader is lost in the world of ACRO and their covert operatives. Secret agents never looked so good!

So get ready for one wild ride as Ms. Croft delivers UNLEASHING THE STORM! Be prepared to be left wanting for more of the ACRO agents and the special love they find.
