Athens Affair

Athens Affair

Elle James2024
Former Navy SEAL Ace “Hammer” Hammerson, on security detail in Jordan, corners a thief absconding with portions of an ancient copper scroll. When the thief is attacked and the scroll is stolen, Ace is drawn into a dangerous quest to retrieve the priceless antiquity. Former UK SAS operative, Jasmine is forced to steal ancient copper scrolls from a museum in Amman Jordan to save her little brother's life. After she’s delayed by a handsome stranger, she escapes only to be cornered and knocked out by men in black garb and masks. They take the scrolls, leaving her without the bargaining chip she needs to save her brother. She has three days to retrieve the scroll, or her brother will be killed. When Hammer finds the unconscious thief and he learns of her dilemma, he joins her in a mad dash across the Mediterranean to Athens, following a trail of intrigue that leads to danger and love that wasn’t in his original mission statement.

Ace and Jasmine are a great pairing. Ace is a phenomenal protector and Jasmine has used every talent and skill learned from both of her parents to become the warrior she is. Sure, she sometimes takes less salubrious jobs but sometimes single mum's can't be choosy!

Ace was like 100% committed to Jasmine as soon as they reconnected - he caught her robbing the place but still went into protector mode. These reunited lovers have a lot to get caught up on but the race to find Eli must take centre stage. But will Ace still be the man for Jasmine once he learns about the "momento" he left behind! I felt Jasmine could have been a bit more forthcoming a lot quicker with Ace.

I really enjoyed meeting Dmytro and Fearghas too. The international division is certainly taking form quickly! Bring on Belgium!
