Between the publisher's blurb and the Table Of Significant Characters, it was obvious that this was going to be a Great Fun

The humor throughout is brilliant and somehow through all the fantastic plot, hilarious comedy and outlandish situations Agents A and B are involved in; this story manages to also be a romance, and a very convincing one at that!

I can't wait for more.

And the epilogue is just lovely, a moment with all three of the couples in this series, just being good friends. A lovely way to end it. It's been a wild ride.
