For justice. For country. For love.

After witnessing her friend’s sexual assault, seven year senior, Magdalena Wells escapes an attack with a few bruises and a thousand questions. As a journalist in practice, if not in pay, Mags vows to utilize the skills she mastered in the Democratic Republic of Congo and answer every single one, just as soon as she gets the hell out of town.

Law Pierce’s aim is rest and relaxation after two years undercover in South Africa on an extended Base Branch mission, but restlessness puts him in trouble’s path. As a servant of justice, Law will do everything in his power to keep trouble safe. The fact that trouble’s petite stature and luscious curves stir his every primal instinct is a massive inconvenience he struggles to ignore.

Together Magdalena and Law uncover a web of corruption and dirty lies that could set their country’s top official ablaze, if the inferno doesn’t consume them first.

IT IS OFFICIAL. BASE BRANCH HAS BECOME MY FAVOURITE SERIES!

Magdalena Wells and Lawrence Pierce might have killed each other through the words they yield as weapons, if not for the constant danger they are facing in their lives! Seriously, they are the one couple who seems to love and hate each other on sight!

They could be arguing like children, banter as if they were long-term best friends and the next moment, BAM! Law and Mags are visually undressing and sexing each other in their minds like passionate lovers!

(Sexing isn’t a real word…more like visually fucking each other. Yeap, eye-fucking each other!)

Or…they could just argue to their deaths. I’m seriously beginning to think it’s their part-time job to keep each alive while running on the road…or maybe it’s their hobby to drive each other insane!

Law Pierce is having a difficult settling down his feelings and unrest ever since the undercover mission with Baine. He wants to relax but this thought was gone the moment Mags Wells arrive.

Both of them faces constant danger as Mags struggles to find out the truth, with Law protecting her from every attempt on her life.

I swear Megan has this wonderful ability to write her novels filled with such heart-stopping moments that makes you go “BOOM!”, action that will get your whole body go like “KABOOM!”, and leave you wanting for more of her Base Branch novels!

Highly recommended for readers who would love to read a novel filled with action and a heated passion between the characters!

 When friends become enemies and enemies become lovers.

Born in the blood of Sierra Leone’s Civil War, enslaved, then sold to the US as an orphan, Base Branch operative, Sloan Harris is emotionally dead and driven by vengeance. With no soul to give, her body becomes the bargaining chip to infiltrate a warlord’s inner circle, the man called The Devil who killed her family and helped destroy a region.

As son of the warlord, Baine Kendrick will happily use Sloan’s body, if it expedites his father’s demise. Yet, he is wholly unprepared for the possessive and protective emotions she provokes. Maybe it’s the flashes of memory. Two forgotten children drawing in the dirt beneath the boabab tree. But he fears there is more at stake than his life.

In the Devil’s den with Baine by her side, Sloan braves certain death and discovers a spirit for living.

Once I started Enemy Mine, I was hooked on it and I had to finish it before I do anything else! At first, the synopsis and the book cover wasn’t that enticing but once I read the first few chapters, I already know I would love it!

To me, Enemy Mine feels like a combination of both Mission Impossible and Ultraviolet!

Sloan Harris is the perfect example of a soldier who lives only for revenge and nothing else. She’s practically emotionless towards many things in life or should I say, a lack of wants. I have this notion that if Sloan wasn’t driven by revenge and being a Base Branch operative, she would have wasted her life away or probably having suicidal thoughts.

I love how the author portrays Sloan’s character. Sloan believes she can pull off her mission well, which she does all the time, and even when faced with the man she recognise as the boy that made her dark childhood bearable, she’s certain she won’t hesitate.

She may seem incapable of any emotions but in the end, she’s just human and she feels for Baine.

Baine Kendrick, the first person I have ever read about in a book who hates his father so much. I’ve read plenty of books with protagonists hating their parents but the hatred is nothing compared to what Baine feels for his father.

I don’t want sound weird or anything but part of the reason why I like Baine so much is because his feelings for his father never disappears or soften. He just hates the man so much. Of course, that and his love for the one he loves most.

The way the author wrote the book is pretty cool. It’s one of those books in a third person’s point of view but it also stops at certain part, like a cliff-hanger and move onto another character’s perspective.

(This will probably explain the reason why I kept on reading until I finish it before I can do anything else! Oh, and the amount of time my heart seems to stop!)

Recommended for those who wants to have a read of heart-pumping-stopping action filled with a twist of love!
