About the author
Jean Brashear
147 books240 followersA letter to Rod Stewart resulting in a Cinderella birthday for her daughter sowed the seeds of New York Times and USAToday bestselling author Jean Brashear's writing career. A lifelong avid reader, at the age of forty-five with no experience and no training, she decided to see if she could write a book. It was a wild leap that turned her whole life upside down, but she would tell you that though she's never been more terrified, she's never felt more exhilarated or more alive. She's an ardent proponent of not putting off your dreams until that elusive 'someday'—take that leap now.
Over fifty published novels later, the five-time RITA finalist and RTBookReviews Career Achievement Award winner has accumulated a whole passel of war stories to swap and loves nothing better than talking writing and books with readers and fellow writers.
And she'd still take that leap, war wounds and all.

This is a very good story. My only problem with it is that it needs a little more closure. A few things seemed to be left in question in my opinion.

Sorry for shouting, but I am a HUGE Jean Brashear fan and can't rave enough about her literary skills! The Choice kept my body glued to the seat and my mind engaged in the drama unfolding from page one.
Drake Cullinane, an FBI agent working undercover for the past two years, is close to nearing the end of his assignment by bringing in his target, Klaus Hafner, arms dealer and terrorist. As his Security Chief and right hand man, Drake is shocked when he is bested by an intruder at their estate.
Jillian MacGregor, bent on revenge, for the death of her sister, is determined to get close to Hafner. Fierce and passionate with an intelligence comparable to Drake's, the clash of their wills keeps the tension mounting. Drake is ordered to hire her for his team, although his intuition has warning bells shrieking. With dangerous secrets between them, they are on a path of self destruction.
Ms. Brashear balances the incredible action with romantic suspense, at its finest. I love the way she developed Drake and Jillian's feelings and fluidly provided us with an amazing dialogue. No matter the genre, this author is uniquely gifted and I will read anything with her name attached. Kudo's ~ Bravo!
