The Kelly Group International (KGI) is a super-elite, top secret, family-run business. They handle jobs the U.S. government cannot. Marcus Lattimer is a personal enemy of KGI, so when the CIA asks for help, Garrett Kelly jumps at the chance to nail the guy. Allen Cross had been killed in his office and it is believed that Lattimer personally assassinated the businessman instead of sending one of his men to do the job. However, the monitors had conveniently been down and the security guard away from his post. To nab Lattimer, Garrett would need to keep tabs on Lattimer's half sister, Sarah Daniels, who witnessed the murder. Until very recently, no one knew that Lattimer had any living family members. He is extremely protective of Sarah, making sure that she knows nothing about his shady activities and that his life never touches her in any way.
After seeing Marcus kill her former boss, Sarah goes into hiding. She is not hiding because she is afraid of her half brother. She is in hiding to protect him. Stanley had seen her in the building following Allen's death. The last thing Sarah wants is for Stanley to learn that Marcus is the one who killed his brother - even if he did deserve it.
The sister of the CIA's most wanted man is on the Isle de Bijoux. She is holed up in a cottage on a remote section of the beach. Though many would consider the all expenses paid trip to Florida to be sort of a vacation, Garrett sees Sarah simply as bait to get Lattimer. This is a cake job. Stick to Sarah and nail Lattimer when the time comes. But Garrett never counts on falling for Sarah. When he glimpses Sarah's dark past, he wants nothing more than to keep her safe - even after she disappears on him. Garrett may not know why Sarah is running, but it is clear that she is running for her life.... Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 stars
Decent tale, with a modern day knight-in-shining-armour, but lacking a touch of heat...
2 Mar 2011
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Don't get me wrong - this is a series from MB that I do like,but it's far removed from her romantica stuff and should be classed as suspense with a bit of romance thrown in. This is the tale of Garrett, the second oldest Kelly brother, an ex-marine and now part of KGI, and Sarah, the half-sister of Marcus Lattimer, Garrett's enemy.
Sarah is in hiding after witnessing her brother killing a man who had wronged her and when intel gives Garrett a perfect scenario to come into her life in order to be able to gain access to her brother, he takes it. For most of the book, Sarah is scared and distrusting and Garrett is her knight in shining armour, but due to her past, they do not get together romantically until the end of the book.
At the end, things seem to come together very quickly, but I couldn't quite understand how willingly and easily Sarah surrendered to Garrett, or how neat and nice things panned out. I for one would have been seriously annoyed to find out that a man was after me mainly to satisfy a need for revenge, and wouldn't have forgiven Garrett as quickly and easily as Sarah did, but I suppose that facing death at the hands of Mexican baddies and Garrett being tortured whilst trying to shield her might have made her realise that she did, despite appearances and despite Garrett's initial motives, truly mean something to him.
We get to see a fair bit of Van/Donovan in this book, so perhaps he's next in line for his tale, and once again, the army of macho Kelly buddies make an appearance so this series could go on and on.
Overall, a decent enough read, if you're not expecting the hot and steamy stuff every few pages - but IMHO, not a Keeper.

Oh how I love all the KGI books!
Hidden Away is the third book in KGI series and is about Garrett Kelly, the sweetest guy ever!
I can understand why some readers consider Sam's book the best, it's very hot, but to be honest, they are all equally great!
It takes a long while for Garrett and Sarah's relationship to build up, but that's normal considering what Sarah has been through. Someone who's been raped is not going to jump on the next guy in sight and that's what makes it believable. She is scared and doesn't know how to deal with Garrett, she doesn't trust anyone. The whole build up will take time, but Maya Banks' skillfull writing just makes the wait that much more intriguing and interesting...all that suspense... and when you finally get to the sweetest moment it doesn't disappoint!
In the meantime, the book is full of action and you won't get bored for a second!
LOVED the story and can't wait to read the next book!
