This probably would’ve worked for me if the relationship had grown out of the leads needing to collaborate for a dangerous mission, but since the romance instantly happens, it just felt silly. Also, for supposedly being the best spies their organization has, they sure are bad at their jobs.

I love Alyssa Cole's books. She's a master of crafting engaging romances that aren't all fluff, but tackle historic and social commentary. I'd say that the main characters fall for eachother pretty fast, but if that actually bothered me I wouldn't read so much romance.
