4.0 out of 5 stars
Incognito series, book five,
By
This review is from: Under The Spell [Incognito Series Book 5] (Kindle Edition)
The Network is the world's most covert organization. The HQ is in Chicago, underground, beneath a front company. They have unchallenged authority and skill to destroy criminals. The Network takes over where regular law enforcement leaves off. The people of this organization give up their entire lives to become agents of the Network. For them, there is no life and no love, only duty.
Justine Fielding is the Network's Communications and Systems Analyst. Before she was recruited, her name had been Gina Calhoun and she lived with her father, Reggie, on the Triple Aces Ranch in Fever, Texas. Everyone from her former life believes her gone forever. Justine thought the same thing until her superiors informed her that she, as Gina, was about to be resurrected. The Network has intercepted some encrypted, untraceable e-mails coming from somewhere on the ranch. The e-mails were going over seas, but the Network was unable to track them from their origin or locate the go-between person. Justine is devastated when her superiors inform her that Reggie is dead. Her father died at the ranch when a prairie fire burned down the ranch as he slept. But was it really an accidental fire or was Reggie murdered? The Network's theory is that Reggie had tried to stop or had been involved with the crimes of a former friend and that Alex Lynch was somehow mixed up in the whole mess. Alex Lynch and Gina Calhoun used to be an item. But when Gina wanted to wed early in order to get out from under her father's thumb, Alex had refused. Alex insisted on waiting a couple of years to receive Reggie's blessing. Unable and unwilling to wait, Gina had disappeared. It has been several years since then. Alex, who grew up on and worked for the ranch, has ownership now, per Reggie's will. Alex's first thought upon seeing wild Gina again is delight that she is alive. The second is fear that she wants the ranch. Yet Gina never says she is or is not planning to take the ranch from him. All she wants to do is find out what really happened to her father. Gina simply refuses to believe Reggie died from a normal prairie fire. Alex soon learns that Gina has changed in many drastic ways, however, the attraction between them burns hotter than ever. **** It has been one year since the ending of the last book, Dead Drop. Use that as a time line if you have been following the series. More book space is spent on the romance than on the mission this time around. You should not begin this story expecting a fast paced adventure. This reads more as a mystery than suspense. But do not worry, there is danger, as well as the surprise or two which the author, Karen Wiesner, is fast becoming known for. Excellent! **** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.

Under the Spell,
This review is from: Under The Spell (Incognito Series, Book 5) (Paperback)
System analyst for the Network communications team, Justine Fielding has unfinished business in her hometown of Texas. In her prior life, before the Network, she was Gina Calhoun and she lived with her father on a ranch. Now that life, along with Gina Calhoun, is gone. Gina's life in Texas is one Justine never planned to return to, but the Network had other ideas. Informed that her father was dead and the reasons around his death may be Network connected a devastated Justine resurrects Gina and returns to her life in Texas to find out who may have killed her father. Things get more complicated when it turns out her ex love Alex Lynch may be involved.
Alex, now the owner of Gina's family ranch, has one of his loves in the life. The other was Gina. When she disappeared Alex focused his life on the ranch, now that Gina is returned Alex is not sure how to feel. One thing is for certain, he still wants Gina just as much as he did back then. Under The Spell is aptly named, Gina/Justine and Alex fall hopelessly under each other's spell. This is, not surprising, another great addition to a fantastic series. Although Under The Spell is part of a series it reads wonderfully as a standalone, as with all of the books of this series. Under The Spell is more on the romantic side, but the suspense of the novel is not compromised because of it. I enjoyed this story and I know followers of this series will too.
