The Clock Is Ticking:

48 hours
2 covert operatives
1 chance to get it right

Maddox Kinkade is an expert at managing the impossible. Tasked with neutralizing a lethal bioweapon, she turns to the one person capable of helping her stop the threat in time: the love of her life, back from the dead and mad as hell at her supposed betrayal. Recruiting Cole to save millions of lives may be harder than resisting the attraction still burning between them, but Maddox will do whatever it takes, down to her final breath...even if it destroys her.

When Maddox crashes back into Cole Matthews's life, he wants to fight back. He wants to hate her. But the crisis is too strong to ignore, and soon the two former lovers find themselves working side-by-side in a breakneck race to stop a world-class killer with a secret that could end everything.

This isn't your ordinary FBI romantic suspense. These covert operatives breathe life into a race-against-time romantic thriller, perfect for fans of 24, J. D. Robb, and Mary Burton!

About the Author

Juno Rushdan draws from real-life inspiration as a former U.S. Air Force Intelligence Officer to craft sizzling romantic thrillers. However, you won’t find any classified leaks here. Her stories are pure fiction about kick-ass heroes and strong heroines fighting for their lives as well as their happily-ever-after.

Although Juno is a native New Yorker, wanderlust has taken her across the globe. Fortunately, she is blessed with a husband who shares her passion for travel, movies, and fantastic food. She’s visited more than twenty different countries and has lived in England and Germany. Her favorite destination for relaxation is the Amalfi Coast, Italy for its stunning seascape, cliffside lemon groves, terraced vineyards, amazing pasta, and to-die-for vino.

When she’s not writing, Juno loves spending time with her family. Exercise is not her favorite thing to do, but she squeezes some in since chocolate and red wine aren’t calorie-free.

She currently resides in Virginia with her supportive hubby, two dynamic children, and spoiled rescue dogs. Check her out on Instagram, Facebook or follow her on Twitter or BookBub. She loves to connect with readers!

A suspenseful read in one sitting!!

Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2023

Verified Purchase

This was the first book of the author's that I have read and I'm hooked. I loved her attention to detail, putting myself right IN the scene. The action scenes were action-packed and fast-paced, I found myself rereading a couple of scenes so I could appreciate EVERYTHING that was happening in that moment. And the procedures and policies that the agents followed were believable. The romance parts in it were nice and well-written but I wasn't here for the romance. I love suspense thrillers and this book met my expectations. Be warned, there IS violence, but it does come with the territory...nothing that put me off or was over-the-top in my own opinion. I will definitely continue this series!!

I really enjoyed this book! The suspense was great, it was fast paced and kept me turning the pages. I loved the chemistry between the H/h. It was my first book by this author and definitely won't be my last.

So good!!!!!

What a pleasant surprise. Picked this up on a whim and found one of the best books of the year.

This is an edge of your seat read. I started this early afternoon and only put it down to cook dinner. A clever story with elements that carry over to the next book and characters you know you can get attached to. The villan of this book is taken care of, dastardly plot foiled, but the biggest threat is still out there. Bonus: the first dozen chapters of the next book are included.

Cole and Maddox are fabulous as the H/h. She's badass and that's more than fine with him. He's badass, too. Interestingly, she's in the power position in this story and often, Cole is left scrambling to catch up. Good for him for not feeling emasculated by this circumstance. It makes (re)establishing trust between them much easier. By the time their HEA rolls around, their relationship is enviable.

I follow so many authors. I am very hesitant to add to the list. Not this time. I can't wait to finish Gideon and Willow's story in August, and then whoever comes after that. Thank you, Ms. Rushdan for a really great read.

Cliffhanger

Graphic violence

This story is easy to follow. No editing errors or drag-you-down drama. There is graphic violence and well choreographed action scenes.

Intriguing storyline with descriptive writing that draws the reader into each scene. Realistic procedures, actions and reactions. Believable characters with distinct personalities. Thought-provoking dialogue.

What I found difficult to believe was the low cost of the bio-hazard. Also the idea that the Headquarters is not completely wired for audio and visual? No one thought to remove the assassin's keycard or anything else that could be used as a weapon? The lead agent Maddox does not have security systems at her home?

The author could have fnished this story with the discovery and apprehension of the mole. Reader's could be easily enticed to read about the further adventures of Madddox, Cole etc.

No desire to re-read this story. I may be interested in other works by this author if the story is a stand-alone.
Remember this is my personal opinion and does not reflect on the author.

Fast-Paced

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2021

This action thriller was full of details of how spy things work, something I know nothing about. It was interesting to learn about it, though at times, I wish some of the acronyms had been defined. Most were and didn't really impact the plot. I think the fact that the author worked in the field, it brought a level of credibility that an outsider wouldn't be able to create.

Loved the romance between Cole and Maddox and the fact that they were able to reflect on their past and come to terms with everything that had happened. Neither was completely at fault or without blame, like real life.

I enjoyed the author's writing style and it kept my interest to the (mostly) satisfying ending. There are some dangling questions and some of them were for main plot points, which went unanswered. I don't normally like to read cliff-hangars, but I guess if you like the story, characters, and writing enough, you'll continue with the series.

Overall, I would recommend this book if you enjoy spy stories with high stakes, a hot romance, and cliff-hangars don't bother you.

Stayed on edge.

This is my first book by this author. It took awhile for me to feel the connection between Maddox and Cole. I did cry over their past. We get a happy ever for them, but are left on a cliffhanger. Who’s the mole? We know his code name but not who he is.

Couldn't say anything negative about this book, even if I wanted to. I'm sure some English major, or someone with fancy degrees could find all kinds of flaws. I'm not one of them! I just enjoy reading. Getting lost in the story and remembering its just fiction. If it's not precisely accurate, I wouldn't know the difference. This book is total fiction. I don't think there's supposed to be anything real. I would recommend this book. I wish Juno had books in Kindle Unlimited. I would really LOVE, LOVE to read all these books. I read at least two books a day. Afraid I can't afford, to pay for two books, of even one, a day. But, I love your writing!! It's very fast pace and lots of action. Wouldn't dream of skipping a head. I'd be certain to miss something good!!

Wonderful romantic thrill ride

Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2019

All I can say is wow! This romantic thriller had me on the edge of my seat, unable to put the book down and turning the pages as fast as I could to see what was going to happen. I felt an instant connection to Maddox Kinkade and loved her dynamic with the other characters especially Cole Matthews, her former lover. This is the first book I have read by Juno Rushdan and a great debut to her Final Hour series. "Every Last Breath" is a must-read for anyone who enjoys well-crafted, fast-paced romantic suspense.

I received an advance reader copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving my honest review. I also purchased a copy for my keeper library and look forward to reading more by this gifted author.

Intense, more thriller than romance

Reviewed in Australia on August 31, 2019

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed this story. Everything was intense - the action, the romance, the interactions with minor characters. Great plot, interesting characters. The last half in particular was breathless. Several acronyms that I couldn't guess as an Australian reader and I had to look them up. There's a HFN, the main plot was resolved, but there is a loose end remaining untied that obviously leads into the next book. Worth reading.
