High Treason by DiAnn Mills


" Am I talking to a God-fearing Texas gal?"
" Is this a stumbling block for you?"
" Only if this God thing gets in the way of your job performance."
" Faith just might be in your best interest considering what's happened in the last 24 hours."   -Monica Alden and Kord Davidson, High Treason by DiAnn Mills


Hey Readers,
I cannot believe that it is already March!!!
*sigh*  So even though it's March , I have the last book on my February "Must Reads" list for you to check out. High Treason by DiAnn Mills is a fast paced romantic suspense novel that will leave you guessing until the very last chapter. I would recommend this book if you:

  • Like to read any books by DiAnn Mills,
  • Like to read books by Lynette Eason, Dani Pettrey or Dee Henderson, 
  • Like to watch TV shows about Law Enforcement agencies ( like CSI Miami, Blue Bloods and NYPD Blue ) 
  • Just want to read an amazing book.

So on to the story, 
FBI Agent Kord Davidson is assigned to Saudi Prince Omar Bin Talal's security detail once he arrives in the United States. The Prince had decided to make the trip to Houston Texas with his Mother and two sisters in hopes of finding a cancer treatment for his dying mother. However within hours of entering the U.S. there is an assassination attempt on the Prince's life that fatally wounds a member of his security detail.  This attack prompts the FBI to team up with the CIA and they assign CIA Operative Monica Alden as Kord's "Assistant".  Kord immediately disagrees with this because he does not need any help guarding the Prince and he especially does not need help from a female CIA operative.  But he is given a choice, He ether works with Monica or they will reassign him.  

Monica Alden is used to being treated differently because she is a female operative. But she was assigned to this security detail because of her unique skills ( such as lip reading) and her experiences in the Middle East and she will not allow Kord or Prince Omar to keep her from doing her job. When she discovers that Kord is very good friends with Prince Omar, She is worried that he will not be able to objectively look for the threat against the royal family. Forced to put their feelings aside, Monica and Kord work together utilizing each other's skills  to search for clues and protect the royal family.  The assassin however has proved him/her self to be incredibly skilled and has left behind no clues as to his/her identity But when there is another assassination attempt, It confirms Monica's suspicions... The traitor has to be someone in the Prince's inner circle, Someone that they trust,

Will Kord and Monica be able to discover who the traitor is in time?


What did I think? 
So this is book three in the FBI Task Force series but it is not connected to the previous novels, so it can be read as a stand alone. I loved the heroine of the story Monica, because of her strong belief in Jesus and her boldness that she would be willing to witness to a Muslim Prince. (the prince asked her about it because he had overheard a conversation) . The story lagged a bit in the middle but the plot kept you engaged until the very last page. Though there were  two people fatally wounded, The descriptions were not graphic. Overall I thought the book was Fantastic and would rate it 5 out of 5 stars ***** and the emoji rating is 😃
