"I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with you." Since Grayson Pierce's family was murdered, loyalty to Code X—and a death wish—is all that keeps him going. But now the hardened agent is facing his riskiest assignment yet. "Sam," a distractingly sexy operative with supersensitive vision, will need Gray's nearness more than she's willing to admit. But will their combustible chemistry compromise their mission? It will take all of Grayson's training to stay focused as he and Sam uncover a dangerous high-tech conspiracy. Because he can't risk the consequences to national security…or the woman who's jump-started his will to live.

*I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*

Deadly Sight is the third book in a series but it reads as a standalone so I didn't feel I was missing anything important for not having read the previous books. 

Grayson is a man with nothing left to live for, so he takes it one day at a time, giving everything he has to the job. And now his job is to figure out what's happening inside the NRQZ (National Radio Quiet Zone – a real place where technology is banned and people live a life very close to the 50s), where his friend Jeff, the owner of Winston Enterprises has an infiltrated man who has failed to check-in as agreed. Enter Gray and Sam, an employee of Jeff and a subject of his project HIVE (Human Improvement Via Engineering). Sam has been genetically enhanced and now has super-sight, a talent that proves very helpful for surveillance in a place where electronics are unusable. They are to find out what happened to the inside man and try to find out what's going on inside the cult of apparently innocent hippies but who Jeff suspects may be up to no good.

I really liked Sam cause, despite her tragic background, she still keeps a positive attitude about life. She was like a mixture of tough chick and ray of sunshine. I kept picturing her as a red-haired Abby Sciuto from the TV show Criminal Minds.

Gray has one of the most tragic backgrounds I have ever read and I could appreciate the effort he made daily to just keep living. And I liked that the author didn't choose to “erase” his past with his happy ending. 

I felt the chemistry between Gray and Sam and I liked how they didn't lose track of the bigger picture. I thought the romance and the suspense were well balanced and I'd like to read the other books from this series.
