Trust Me by Rachel Grant

 

Synopsis:

Taken hostage by terrorists, an archaeologist must risk everything when a SEAL attempts to rescue her too soon…

Archaeologist Diana Edwards is on a mission to uncover the link between artifact trafficking and terrorism. Just when she’s making progress, she’s kidnapped and forced to work for the very people she’s trying to stop. The nightmare deepens when she discovers the man who arranged her abduction is a terrorist everyone believes to be dead. A team of SEALs is sent in to save her, forcing her to make an impossible choice if she wants to stop looted artifacts from being used to fund brutal attacks across the globe.

Navy SEAL Chris Flyte has one job to do, but the hostage won’t cooperate, endangering him and everyone on his team. After he completes the mission and Diana is safely on American soil, her story of abduction and being forced to dig becomes suspect. But when she shows up on his doorstep saying she’s seen one of her abductors, Chris has to wonder if the archaeologist is lying, or if a terrorist has followed her home.

Review:

Trust Me, the second installment in the Evidence: Under Fire series, has a powerful, realistic, dark plot that hit me hard in the feels and it made me think a lot.

When archaeologist Diana Edwards is abducted in Jordan US government sends his best men to her rescue. But when the Navy SEAL Chris Flyte arrives on the site he can't save the hostage because she follows the criminals. Has Diana betrayed her country? Or there's a real explanation behind her inexplicable actions?

Diana is a very smart, strong woman who has had some traumatic experiencies in her life. Chris is a loyal, brave man who was just back from an op where he and his team were ambushed.

They are perfect for each other, it seems like they found in each other some peace, comfort and security.

I've rooted for them since the beginning of their story. I've followed their tough journey with my heart in my throat for most of the time, but when they were together my heart was all warm and fuzzy.

Rachel Grant writing is really good, intriguing, suspenseful and sweet, but what I appreciate the most is her knowledge of the world of the archaeology.

I highly recommend to read this book, I loved everything about it and I can't wait to read the next one by this author.
