Digitalis by Ronie Kendig

Book 2 in the Discarded Heroes series, following the stories of different men who have left the broader military group and joined a black ops type group called Nightshade.
Read review for Wolfsbane - Book 3 

PLOT:

It builds up until about chapter 7, where things ramp up and get more intense. While this book wasn't non-stop action, it was full of suspense and didn't drag one bit. It flowed well- and the plot was intriueging for many reasons. Piper and Colton's relationship. The identity that Piper is trying to hide from Colton. Colton's flashbacks. Then there's the subplot with Azzan, the assassin in Israel. It was a full plot and I loved EVERY minute of it. 

SEXUAL CONTENT:

As the two MC's, as you can imagine, Piper and Colton are the love interests. Falling in love, attraction type stuff. A kiss here and there. Nothing super passionate or steamy. 

VIOLENCE:

Lot's of hand-to-hand combat. People get shot, killed, that kind of stuff. None of it is super graphic or really detailed, to my remembrance. 

CONCLUSION:

Hands down, I loved every minute of this book. It was terrible, wonderful, gut-wrenching, powerful and intense. My only complaint is that I wish there had have been an extra 25 pages interspersed throughout the book, dedicated to more interactions between Piper and Colton, because I loved them so dang much! I love the plot, loved the characters- all of it was fabulous and made for a perfect read. 

5 Stars & I'd recommend it for 17+ ish- again, it's all quite dependent on each reader.
