Review – Mission: Out of Control

Veronica “Vonya Wagner is a beautiful celebrity used to having her way—and the spoiled daughter of a U.S. Senator. Against her father’s wishes, she’s going overseas on tour, to countries that have threatened her father’s life and the lives of those important to him. Veronica insists she’ll be safe, but like it our not, her father hired a bodyguard to go with her.

Brody “Wick” Wickham is a former Green Beret turned security guard. He thinks Vonya is foolish, and a diva and he isn’t far from wrong. But he isn’t familiar with her third persona, Ronie, a caring person who goes out of her way to donate every penny of her earnings to causes she’s passionate for.

With a young boy that Ronie cares for in danger, Ronie vows to lose Brody. She’s hiding a dangerous secret, but when Wick discovers what’s at stake, how far will he go to keep them both alive?

MISSION: OUT OF CONTROL is the second book in Ms. Warren’s Missions of Mercy series. I must say that neither Vonya nor Veronica is someone that I can relate to. But her third persona, Ronie, tugged at my heart strings and made me sit up and take notice. Brody, from the beginning, was a wonderful hero, strong, considerate, and willing to do the right thing, despite his initial opinions (shared by me) of the heroine.

Readers will be caught up in the deep point of view story, swept into the action, and sitting at the edge of their seats as they thumb through the pages of this book. Don’t pick this book up to read it unless you have the time to finish it, because the tension and suspense doesn’t let up. Discussion questions are included at the end of the book. $5.50. 225 pages.
