Sabrina Hightower hears an intruder in her house, but when she attempts to flee, she forgets her glasses and hurts herself when she bumps into a lamp. Then a man grabs her. Fearing for her life, Sabrina wonders if her cousin Brian is behind this. There have been a few deaths recently, Sabrina's beloved grandfather has vanished, and she's doing all she can to find him, otherwise Brian will get his grubby hands on the elder Hightower's billions. Tall-Dark-and-Deadly, as Sabrina calls the man who abducted her, is Mason Hunt of EXIT, a covert group that rid the world of those whom the lawful channels can't capture. Mason has always been confident in the integrity of EXIT, but as events unfurl and upon getting to know Sabrina a bit better, Mason now harbours serious doubts as to whether some innocents were executed, as would have been the case with Sabrina.

How could I resist a hero who shoots a crossbow! EXIT STRATEGY has one of the finest opening chapters in recent memory, and it never lets off. Ms. Diaz goes all out, she doesn't waste a moment, and conveys in spectacular fashion Sabrina's panic and fear. Far from being helpless, Sabrina is feisty but reasonable and Mason is redoubtable but gentle at the same time; they make a great team. The chemistry between Sabrina and Mason sizzles, but they act on it at the right place, and the right time. There is a mad car race as vivid as any movie's, and Sabrina's lesson on how to shoot a crossbow will remain etched in my memory for a long, long time.

EXIT STRATEGY is so well-written that the author completely disappears behind a rock-solid, captivating, and very fast-paced story, fascinating characters, and brilliant dialogue. EXIT STRATEGY is a fabulously entertaining story to which Lena Diaz holds the secret!

Book Summary

Lena Diaz launches her thrilling new series featuring the undercover vigilantes of EXIT Inc. with a skilled operative putting his life—and his heart—on the line for a woman in trouble

When Sabrina Hightower awakens to the sound of an intruder, she figures he's there to rob her, murder her— or worse. She doesn't expect to be carried off by a muscle-bound stud with male-model good looks . . . or that he came to rescue her.

Mason Hunt became an enforcer with EXIT Inc. to eliminate the bad guys—terrorists, militia groups, all those who would do America harm. But his latest target is innocent. If EXIT could lie about sultry, strong-willed Sabrina, what darker truths might they be concealing?

Going rogue in the rugged North Carolina mountains, Mason risks everything to keep Sabrina close, especially now that EXIT's lethal assassins are chasing them down. The heat is on . . . but it's nothing compared to the slow burn of seduction.
