Arctic Fire (Fortis Security Book 6) – Review by Karyn Taylor
Arctic Fire by Maddie Wade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Arctic Fire is another 5 star read by Maddie Wade. I have only read a couple of her books so far but all have been 5 star reads. Arctic Fire is the 6th book in the Fortis Security Series. Each book in this series can be read as a stand-alone. Although all the couples from books 1-5 appear in this book, it does not matter if you have not read them. I had not read any of the other books from this series and it did not spoil my enjoyment of this one. All it did was make me want to go back and read books 1-5.
Maddie Wade writes amazing characters and lets you get right into their heads and feel everything along with them. Roz and Kanan (K) in this book are no different. Roz is the head of Zenobi, a group of female assassins who is out to kill Usov, an evil man who she was forced to marry but has now escaped from. Kanan Phillips is a former MI6 agent who now works for Fortis Security. 15 years previously Kanan had rescued Roz and fell in love with her although Roz does not remember this. A chance meeting years later sees Roz and Kanan spend an idyllic couple of months together before Roz disappeared.
Now Roz is working alongside Fortis to save a group of girls held captive by Usov and with the intention to kill Usov. Can Roz work alongside Kanan? Will she tell him why she disappeared and left him? Will she give in and admit that she is still in love with Kanan?
The chemistry between Roz and Kanan is on fire. I love how well written these 2 characters are. As the story is written from more than one point of view, we get to see what is going through both of their heads. I loved seeing Roz’s struggle to show that she was strong and did not need Kanan but at the same time fight with her feelings for him.
This book has everything you could want in a book. It is full of action and suspense which keep you gripped from beginning to end. Added to this is the romance between Roz and Kanan with its so many ups and downs. You just can’t help but hope that there is a HEA for Roz and Kanan.
