With A Twist - Book Review

By Sawyer Bennett

Synopsis

Wyatt Banks is ready to give one woman the world. Unfortunately, his job as a cop tends to interfere with other goals. When Wyatt is sent deep undercover to investigate a sex slave ring, he doesn’t have time to do anything but focus on staying alive in a dark and dangerous underworld.

Wyatt isn’t alone though in his quest to save the women that are being sold into sexual slavery.

His partner, FBI Agent Andrea Somerville, is immersed just as deeply as he is, and she’s the bait to lure the sex slavers out into the open, as she poses as an erotic dancer in an attempt to snare the enemy. But danger runs as high as the sparks between them, and now Wyatt is caught between the job he loves and the woman he wants.

Review

WITH A TWIST is the fourth book in the Last Call series and is about Wyatt (Hunter’s best friend) and Andrea.

As I write this review, I realise that I can’t remember much about Wyatt or Andrea, and I find that interesting given I only finished their story less than a week ago. The only thing that stands out is that it was Andrea who had the courage to track Wyatt down to see if they could forge a relationship. I liked that she wasn’t afraid to go after what she wanted, but I was disappointed that Wyatt was. They’re both in law enforcement and they’re both nice, but other than that, I’m drawing a blank.

Sadly, WITH A TWIST is my least favourite book in this series. Not only were the characters unmemorable, but there was no conflict between them and the conclusion of the undercover assignment seemed unrealistic. I could be wrong but I don’t think undercover agents would blow their cover when it wasn’t a matter of life or death, especially when they’ve got a whole FBI team waiting just down the road. I would think the team would come in and arrest everyone⎯including Wyatt and Andrea to keep their cover safe⎯and that by blowing their cover, the criminals would know exactly who put them in prison and would most likely organise to have them killed as payback. In fact, that’s what I kept expecting to happen as the story progressed, but as it turns out, when the bad guys were arrested, that part of the story was put to bed.

WITH A TWIST is told in dual POVs and while it’s part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone.
