Review

In the tenth installment of the KGI series by Maya Banks, Darkest Before Dawn, we follow the story of Hancock and Honor.  Hancock is a man who lives for his job, and nothing will ever get in the way of that, especially his emotions, because he doesn’t have any really.  Especially when they come to the other sex, and definitely not for his captives.  That is until he meets Honor.  She turns his world upside down, and has him questioning everything he has ever believed in.

I was very interested in reading the next installment of this series that has held my attention for so long, and I must say I did enjoy the story.  The only thing that kept this story from being great and only good, was that it took me awhile to really get into the story, but once I did, It was very enjoyable.  I am a huge Maya Banks fan, and a fan of this series in particular.  I would recommend the KGI series and Darkest Before Dawn to any romantic suspense fan, as well as all you fellow Maya fans out there.
