This week I'm featuring Storm Rising (Book of the Wars #1) by Ronie Kendig. It just released July 2nd. I've already read it and loved it so much that I just had to share it today.
About the Book
Mentioned in the pages of the Septuagint but lost to history, the Book of the Wars has resurfaced, and its pages hold secrets--and dangers--never before seen on earth.
Tasked with capturing the ancient text, former Navy SEAL Leif Metcalfe is finally given command of his own team. But their best efforts are ruined when a notorious Bulgarian operative known as "Viorica" snatches the volume right out from under them.
Iskra "Viorica" Todorova is determined to use the book to secure the thing that matters most--freedom. But a series of strange storms erupts around the globe and the coming dangers foretold in the text threaten crops, lives--entire nations. Though both are haunted by secrets of the past and neither trusts the other, Leif and Iskra must form an uneasy alliance to thwart impending disaster. However, the truth hidden in two-thousand-year-old words could unleash the storm of their own destruction.

He'd never killed a woman in cold blood before, but now was as good a time as any.

Maintaining her cool façade was impossible with Metcalfe and his seeming ability to read her mind, though she knew he was just a very shrewd operative who could read a situation. Read her. "Nobody forces me to do anything."
What have you been reading lately?
