While You Were Spying- Review


While You Were Spying by Stina Lindenblatt
Series: Love Undercover #1
Release Date: February 20, 2020


BLURB

She needs a fake husband. He needs to protect his best friend...

Ever since I caught my boyfriend getting hot and steamy with another woman, I’ve thrown myself into my career. But now I’m ready to move from being the super-efficient office manager to an operative with Quade Security and Investigation.

Just as soon as I prove to my boss that I’m kick-ass enough to do the job.

So when my grandmother asks for my help, there’s no way I can say no. Her former love has a mission for Jayden—my hot colleague and best friend—and me. What more could I want?

***
The last thing I want is for Isabelle to be is an operative. She’s my best friend, and I hate the idea of her being in danger. Unfortunately, our boss has other plans.

Isabelle and I go undercover at a resort for happily married couples. But forget moonlight walks and hanging out by the pool. To maintain our cover, we have to participate in activities that would make a nun blush.

Clothes come flying off, and we agree to temporarily be friends-with-benefits while there. No strings attached. No complications. Nothing could be simpler. Right?

Wrong—because there’s another reason we’ve been lured to the resort. A reason that will put our hearts to the test…and our lives on the line.

My Review:
My Rating: 4 stars


Isabelle is currently a office manager to a security company, but wants to become an operative. Isabelle's best friend and co-worker Jayden knows the risk of being an operative and wants to keep her safe. After Isabelle's grandma's ex asks for Isabelle and Jayden to go undercover as a married couple to solve a mystery Isabelle knows it's the perfect way to show Jayden and their boss she can be a operative. The only problem is when the chemistry between Isabelle and Jayden can't be denied what will happen after the job? This was the first time reading this author and I absolutely enjoyed her writing. There were a few things that I called while reading and a few unexpected turns. I love that Isabelle knew what she wanted and wouldn't give up her dreams just for a guy. She wasn't a pushover, which after reading quite a few romance novels was a breath of fresh air. I loved Jayden, he was the perfect alpha for Isabelle. The side characters were great and I am going to have to go and read Liam's book. The book ended with a small cliffhanger that will help introduce the next book and I am excited to read how that one goes. I loved Isabelle's grandma and two best friends. Overall, this was a great book.  It was hilarious, had mystery and romance. I will definitely check out more books by this author.
