End Game by Rachel Dylan
The Basics
Title: End Game by Rachel Dylan
Series: Capital Intrigue (Book 1)
Publication Date: January 7, 2020
Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense
My Rating: 5/5 Stars
From the Back Cover: When elite members of the military are murdered on the streets of Washington, DC, FBI Special Agent Bailey Ryan and NCIS Special Agent Marco Agostini must work together to bring the perpetrator to justice. Unfortunately, all evidence points to a Navy SEAL sniper who Bailey refuses to believe is guilty.
When Bailey and Marco start to connect the dots between the victims, they wonder if there’s a deeper cover-up at play. After Bailey is targeted, it becomes clear that someone is willing to kill to keep their dark secrets.
With the stakes getting higher by the moment, Bailey and Marco rush against the clock to determine whom they can really trust in this twisted conspiracy. As allies turn to enemies, the biggest secret yet to be uncovered could be the end of them all.
My Thoughts
Rachel Dylan is quickly becoming a don’t-miss suspense author for me! This first book in her new series is a blend of suspense and thriller that centers on a deadly conspiracy that reaches deep into our government. I really enjoyed the focus on NCIS, as thatβs an agency I haven’t read much about in this genre. Bailey and Marco are great main characters, and I also enjoyed the two secondary storylines and the variety of characters. The story drew me in from the beginning with the action and suspense, and the romance was sweet and heartfelt without being over the top. I canβt wait for the rest of the series!

Not for the first time, Joshua Wheeler wondered if heβd descended into hell.
Happy Friday! My first line is from “Because of Him” by Kimberly Rae Jordan:
“Kieran Sutherland only just managed to keep from lifting his arm and elbowing the detective seated beside him in the face.”

On my blog I’m sharing the first line from Veiled in Smoke by Jocelyn Green: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2020/01/03/first-line-friday-117/. Currently I’m reading An Uncommon Woman by Laura Frantz. It’s AMAZING!!!
“The field of winter wheat was sun-drenched and silent, the heated August air already blackened by buzzards.”
Hope you have a great weekend filled with awesome reading time. πβ€π

I’m sharing from The Gray Chamber by Grace Hitchcock today. Here is the second line:
Rounding the corner, she slowed her velocipede and overheard two women gasp at her lack of chapeau and corset.
