Breach of Trust by DiAnn Mills
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Paige Rogers is a former CIA agent who lost all she treasured seven years ago when her entire team was killed in a covert mission. She blames their leader--Daniel Keary--whom Paige believes betrayed them. Disillusioned and afraid for her life, she disappeared and started a new life as a small-town librarian. But when Keary announces his candidacy for governor of her state, he comes after Paige to ensure that she won't ruin his bid for office. He threatens everything she holds dear, and Paige must choose between the life of hiding that has become her refuge . . . Or risking everything in one last, desperate attempt to right old wrongs.

Paige is a wonderful character. She has had to give up everyone she loves and live a lie in order to protect them. She desperately wants to take down the man who has caused all of this, but has not been able to up to this point. Miles is a solid guy—the kind any woman could fall in love with. Caring, loving, tender, but all male—no wimp here! Interesting story line that kept me plunged in the book. There were a couple of small issues I had with the book. Paige was ordered by the “bad guy” to change her identity and live in this specific town, yet she seems shocked when she discovers a townsperson has been working with the enemy the entire town. Really?!? With her background and training and knowing what this man really is, yet she doesn’t suspect that he would put people in her life to get close to her and keep an eye on her? That just didn’t seem realistic to me. Great potential to the story, but definitely a couple of slip-ups in keeping the story feeling realistic.
