(I received this book for free as part of Goodreads First Reads giveaways).

I did like the idea behind this book, but although it was a quick, easy read, I couldn’t give it four stars.
Mack was an interesting character, but Jenna did irritate me at times. I’m all for a strong heroine, but not one who disregards common sense just to show how independent she is. I felt she didn’t understand the potential danger she’d put the other team members in.
I also wasn’t too keen on the twins’ obsession with her. I loved Charlie and Willie, but I have serious issues when more characters than just the hero has feelings for the heroine. Still, Charlie in particular was especially awesome. By the end of the book, I felt he’d definitely proved himself an invaluable member of the team. Willie was good, but his skills weren’t explained with the same kind of detail as Charlie’s.
I liked the other members of the team in the book, too, and I would have liked to see more of them and their past. I liked the banter between the teammates and I thought they played off each other well.
I felt there was a good mix of action and romance, though there was a bit of… kissing while involved in a dangerous mission. Towards the end of the book, Jenna showed a bit more intelligence, too.
I think I’d be interested in reading the next books in the series at a later date. It would be nice to see more of the secondary characters.
