My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Forged by Secrets is the latest and third book in the series Deadly Isles Special Ops. I have read all three books in this series and have enjoyed them immensely. This book would work well as a stand alone, but in the series, it answered a lot of the lingering questions and wrapped up the series well. It is the story of the third Hale brother, Tyler. The mole that has plagued the brothers is still following them. Will Tyler find out who the mole is before it is too late? Will he be able to save his love interest, Malina, before her past catches her? Find all the answers in Forged by Secrets!

Having read and enjoyed the previous two books in McKinley’s ‘Deadly Isles Special Ops’ series I was looking forward to this third novel and was definitely not disappointed. In fact this series just keeps getting better. Each book can be read as a standalone story, however I recommend reading the whole series as each book is a great read. I was gripped from page one of ‘Forged by Secrets’ and loved the two main characters, Malina and Tyler. Malina Johansson is an analyst for the Navy SEALs and she works alongside Tyler Hale, a Navy SEAL who she had a crush on in high school. The couple get together after a drunken night in Vegas but afterwards Malina makes it clear it was a one time thing as she does not think Tyler wants a relationship. Meanwhile, Tyler can not get his one night with Malina out of his head and does not know why she’s avoiding him. When he returns from a mission to discover Malina had been accused of a crime and is now missing all he wants to do is find her and keep her safe. Malina knows she’s in trouble as she’s been accused of treason and the only person she trusts to help her is Ty, however first she has something to tell him about their night in Vegas. This is a fairly short read but it’s action packed and fast paced with plenty of plot twists that kept me guessing until the end. The chemistry between Ty and Malina really came across in the story and the descriptive narrative bought both the characters and the setting to life. I found this novel to be an exciting and engaging read. I’m looking forward to future books in this series.

Another fantastic read from this author. It was full of action from beginning to end and it was as I expected from this author. She commands my attention from the very first page until the last. I love her characters they are always well written and great to read about.
In this third instalment of the Deadly Isles Special Ops series we follow Malina and Tyler’s story. I loved both of these characters, Tyler was the kind of alpha male I love to read about and I adored Malina! She was strong and sassy! A fantastic heroine! I was with Tyler every step of the way as he tried to find Malina.
I would recommend reading this series in order; all of the books have been amazing so far! I can’t wait to see what will happen next in this series!

Forged by Secrets by Amy McKinley is the third book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series. This author has yet again produced an amazing book with some brilliant characters right at the centre of it. Malina and Tyler have to be my favourite couple of this series so far. They are one those couples that just fit together in such an effortless way and are so exciting to read about. They have a true connection that adds a whole new level to the story.
As with the other stories they are fast paced and action packed from beginning to end. This author really knows how to create a gripping story and just keeps the pages turning. This is another 5* read and I would highly suggest everyone reads this series.

I’m thoroughly impressed with this book and especially this series. Forged By Secrets is the third book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops Series by Amy McKinley. In this book, we meet Malina Johansson who is an analyst for the Navy Seals. Tyler is her high school crush and in one night in Vegas with a whole lot of liquor things definitely changed. However, once they are back home, she becomes guarded and then she gets accused of Treason. Because of this, Tyler comes to her rescue to help fight her current demons and he will not stop until she is proven innocent. Not to mention if either one has a shot at happiness. This book was excellent and something I couldn’t put down. It was definitely a page turner! This is the third book in the series and like I always say…start the series from the beginning. However, you can read this book as a standalone. This author always makes her books easy to read and knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat. I absolutely love this book and this series! You will not be disappointed! I can’t wait for the next book from this author!

Ty had a crush on Malina in high school but never acted on it because he knew his future was in the service. Malina had a crush on him too…so imagine her surprise when she finds herself working with him on a current project for the SEALs. That crush is still there, but she won’t act on it because she knows Ty is not the settling down with one woman type. However, one night in Vegas (with some alcohol involved) changed that.

Once she returns home, she is determined to keep her mind off of Ty. However, when she is accused of Treason, Ty is the person she turns to for help. Ty is determined to do whatever he can to keep her safe. However, when both of them open up about the truth of what really happened in Vegas…will Ty still want to help Malina clear her name?

I have enjoyed this series since the first book. It is one of those books that keeps you up all night to finish because you have to know what happens. It is action packed and there are twists that you didn’t necessarily see coming. Overall, a good book!

Forged by Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops Book 3) by Amy McKinley is a story full of adventure and suspense. It even has more than a dash of romance. It makes the story that much more enticing.

Malina Johansson is a Navy SEAL analyst who works with Tyler, her high school crush. All it takes is one night of drinking in Vegas for her to let down her guard and fall into his arms. She avoids office contacts with Tyler at home, where her walls are firmly in place to shield her spirit. Before she is charged with treason. Now that she’s on the run, she turns to Tyler, the man she knows will keep her safe but who she swears she’ll never trust again. Navy SEAL Tyler Hale returns to Pearl Harbor after a rescue and recovery operation, only to discover that the woman he’s never been able to get out of his system is in danger. He’ll go to whatever length to clear Malina’s name and hold her by his side now that she’s been accused of a crime and gone missing. But no one is innocent, and if he wants a future with the woman of his dreams, he needs to be honest with himself. Ty drops a bomb from their night in Vegas in a world where secrets are the currency, but Malina has one as well.

This is the third book of the series, and it just as good as the two other books. I enjoyed every bit of this story. I loved every page of this book.

Forged by Secrets by Amy McKinley is the 3rd book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series. I loved how each book focused on a different brother from the same family. This last book in the series focuses on Ty and Melina, the woman he’s felt a connection with for a long time. They’ve known each other since high school but Ty didn’t make any moves towards her because he knew he’d be enlisting. What a surprise it was to reconnect later when Ty is now a Navy Seal and Melina is one of the computer operators working with his team. This whole series is a wonderful read you can’t help but get sucked in. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I enjoyed this story. This is the third book in this series which I would highly suggest reading the previous two books. This is an author I have enjoyed from the first book I picked up of hers. I enjoy being pulled into the story and her attention to details make you feel part of the story. This book is no different. It is a well developed story that is full of action and romance. This is about one night of drinking and letting down your guard to fall for a hot,steamy Navy Seal. Will he be able to save her as she is accused of treason? They are great, relatable characters that I fell in love with. They made the story for me. I highly recommend this book and this author.

She’s gone and done it again!! Honestly, Amy McKinley’s writing will never get boring to me. I have read all the books in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series and I could not wait to read this one as well.

I love the way McKinley links all the characters in this series and references to characters from the other books within each one. Reading Twisted Secrets and Bound by Secrets and seeing his brothers lives work out and the happiness they had, I was dying to know what Tyler’s story was and who he would end up with and I was in no way disappointed.

This story was – once again – jam packed with everything you could possibly want in a book. It was, action packed, steamy, cute, scary. Every emotion you could think of and McKinley makes you feel it. I found this story particularly gripping due to Malina’s circumstances and the last few chapters of action. There weren’t quite as many shocking twists in this story as the others in the series, but I didn’t mind that at all because the writing and the character development was enough to captivate me throughout. I really couldn’t put this book down and I will definitely be re-reading this entire series at some point.

I hope there will be another book in this series where we can find out what happens next for Xander, Jaxon and Tyler because I love these characters and could read about them all day!
