The book is part of Sil continuity called FAMILY SECRETS & the first two books have been awesome so far (by Cathy Mann & Linda Castillo):THE IMPOSSIBLE ALLIANCE: Retired search and rescue specialist Jared Sullivan had gotten out of the secret agent game--a fact that meant nothing to ARIES director Sam Hatch. Against his better judgment, Jared agreed to his mentor's request to take on one last mission. He had no idea doing so would lead him to Alexis Warner, a beautiful but unknown ARIES agent determined to discover what was hiding behind Jared's dark amber eyes. But Alexis has shocking secrets of her own. Somewhere in her missing memory is the key to DeBruzkya's insidious intent. And if the truth doesn't surface soon, not only will Jared and Alexis lose their chance for a life together, they might not have a world left to live it in.
