Books & Spoons Review: Total Surrender by Rebecca Zanetti

A fight he must win...

Piper Oliver knows she can't trust him. They warned her that the tall, dark, and sexy black-ops soldier Jory Dean would try to win her over with his steel-gray eyes and deadly charm, but she won't be conned by this man they call a traitor. All she has to do is figure out the science necessary to save his life, and she's done. Something isn't adding up, though, and she won't rest until she uncovers the truth-even if it's buried in his deep, dangerous kiss.

A passion she can't resist...

Jory will do anything to reunite with and save his brothers-even kidnap the gorgeous woman who's working to deactivate the deadly chip in their spines. But the forces determined to destroy his family won't let them go so easily. Keeping Piper alive is more than he bargained for-and so is his burning desire for her. But with every second bringing him closer to certain death, can he afford to lose himself in her hot and willing embrace?

Amazing story, a thrill ride against time and certain death, while fighting for their lives, to save the brothers...
I was blown away by this story, and its original setup. The genetically enhanced brothers, made in a laboratory, meant to be killing machines, soldiers with no emotions, no human weaknesses, had higher sensitivity to all senses, abilities that went beyond understanding. Their loyalty, love, trust, and connection to each other was nothing short of amazing, mind blowing. Their love and protectiveness to the family they built was deep, they put the A into an alpha male.
The attraction between Piper and Jory was immediate. Despite the deathly circumstances they were in, their feelings for each other grew and deepened. Her sass and stubbornness, with his bossiness and protective nature created many humorous scenes, with the geek in them bonding them on a different level. Their passion for each other was sensual, hot, and sexy. The desperation to keep the brothers alive touching.
With fierce and brutal action, constant twists in the plot, and machination by the commander, the story moved fast, the clock ticking on the capsules in the Dean brother's spines.
So much into this story, and the series, a true pearl to be found indeed. The beginning of the story took me a little time to get into it, but once the scene was set, the story took off, and I had to finish it in one sitting. Completely unique storyline, that just has to be experienced to grasp the idea behind this marvelous series
