Review: Achilles (Discarded Heroes: Scions Book 3) by Ronie Kendig

SYNOPSIS
She needs his skills to survive. He needs her secrets to uncover the truth.

For two years, Dillon Jacobs has refused to accept his father's death.
He's chased every lead across multiple continents—burning bridges and risking everything to prove Max Jacobs is still alive.

Cove Galtieri is fighting her own impossible battle. Desperate to clear her father's name of corruption charges that threaten to destroy their family legacy, she's gathering evidence to prove the man who raised her isn’t the monster the world claims.

After Dillon's hunt intersects their paths in Paris, their worlds soon collide again in gunfire and chaos at the Galtieri estate in Italy. But that collision becomes a revelation: Dillon's missing father and Cove's accused father were photographed together in Yemen. The evidence Cove has been gathering contains clues Dillon desperately needs.

Two quests. One conspiracy. A partnership forged in fire.

Every ally could be an enemy. Every clue could be a trap. Racing across international borders—from Italian vineyards to Greek islands to the dangerous ports of Yemen—Dillon and Cove must navigate a deadly game where trust is a luxury they can't afford and love might be the most dangerous weapon of all.


MY THOUGHTS

Y’all! Achilles was fantastic! It was one of my mostly highly anticipated reads of the year. I’ve been very eager to find out what was going on with Dillon and if his dad really was still alive. This book exceeded all of my very high expectations. It was a constant thrill ride from start to finish.

I really liked Dillon and Cove. They had amazing chemistry and made a great team. I enjoyed seeing them learn to trust each other while working together.

There were so many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. There were quite a few intense moments where I caught myself holding my breath. I didn’t know how they were going to get out of the predicaments they were in.

I loved this book so much and highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys heart-pounding romantic suspense. Even though it is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone. I look forward to whatever Ronie Kendig writes next!

I received a copy of this book and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.

FIVE STARS
