Robert McClellan was forced to serve as a soldier in a war he didn’t understand. Liberated by McKay-Taggart, he struggles every day to reclaim the life he lost and do right by the men he calls his brothers, The Lost Boys. Only one thing is more important – Ariel Adisa. The gorgeous psychologist has plagued his dreams since the day they met. Even as their mission pushes him to his limits, he can’t stop thinking about taking his shot at finding a life beyond all this with her.


Ariel Adisa is a force to be reckoned with. Her performance in Toronto proved she’s more than just a brilliant mind, but Robert still acts as if she is a wilting flower who needs his protection. Joining him on the mission to Munich should be the perfect opportunity to test their skills and cement their relationship. She and Robert are an excellent match. But when a stunning secret from Robert’s past is revealed, their world is turned upside down and nothing will ever be the same again.


While they chase dark secrets across Europe, Robert and Ariel realize that the only thing worse than not knowing who you are could be discovering who you used to be...

Lost in You teaser 4



Excerpt:


He led Ariel out. Down the hall he saw Dante outside the media room, a beer in his hand. He’d been turned toward the kitchen at the opposite end of the hall, as though he’d been standing there staring at it. Had he been listening to the happy couples? There was something dark in Dante that always gave him pause. Dante turned without a word and disappeared behind the doors where he would likely drink himself to sleep. It seemed to be the way he and Sasha operated. But he wasn’t thinking about that tonight. Tomorrow would be soon enough to sit everyone down and talk about the problems they were having. He would get Jax on the phone. He wasn’t leaving him out because he was in London. “Are you all right?” Ariel had stopped beside him. “Is Dante giving you trouble?” He was glad she’d been upstairs when they’d gone on their rant. “I think the pressure is starting to get to him. But we can talk about that tomorrow. I think after we get back to London we should have a big group meeting and get some things out in the open.” “They think Damon and Ian are keeping things from them?” No. He did not want to go there. He stopped in the middle of the hall and got into her personal space. She backed up against the wall and he loomed over her. It was time to move from reality to a place where they might be able to play out a few fantasies, if she was ready. “No work talk. If you want to go to sleep, I’ll kiss you now and see you in the morning. Tucker and I are in the room next to you. If you need anything I’ll be there. If you aren’t tired and you want to talk some more, we can go down to the bar and have another glass of wine with the full knowledge we don’t have to go any further than that. I’m more than willing to sit up talking to you all night long.” She tilted her head up to him. “And if I want to go to bed but not to sleep?” His heart rate ticked up, blood starting to thrum through his system as he invaded further, brushing his chest against hers. He reached for her wrists and gently brought them up and over her head, pinning her to the wall. “Then we need to make a few things clear.” She took a deep breath, her lips curling up as though she liked the way he smelled. “Me sub, you Dom. Got it.” He leaned over. “Hey, I’m trying to make sure I take care of you the way you like to be taken care of. I’ve watched you play. I don’t think your play partners realized how much you like being dominated. I think they view you as a woman who enjoys a spanking from time to time. They don’t get how much you need to know your partner is thinking about how to handle you. They don’t understand that you need to stop thinking. You need a place where you obey your partner.” “In their defense, I had no interest in sex with any of them. I was looking for a spanking, some physical play that wouldn’t lead to real intimacy. You watched me?” “I always watch you,” he admitted. “It’s why my brothers insist I’m your stalker. I watch you because I can’t not watch you when you’re in a room. If I thought for a second that it made you uncomfortable, I would make myself stop, but I think you like it.” She watched him, too, and not in a way that made him think she was wary of him. It had always been there between them—the crackle and fire of sexual chemistry. “You’re going to be a talky one, aren’t you?” she asked. And she was going to be a brat.


REVIEW:

4 stars
****
 This was a good book! Lost in You is book three of The Forgotten series, a spin-off of the the Masters and Mercenaries series about the Lost Boys. This is Robert and Ariel's story. Robert is one of the Lost boys who had his memory erased by the evil Dr. McDonald several years ago. He has been working for McKay Taggart since then, as they work to find out who they all are, what happened to them and how to restore their memory. Ariel is the psychologist that has worked with their team, but has gradually moved away from treating the Lost boys herself as she has become closer to them, become their friend and has gotten too close to be objective. She and Robert felt a connection and an attraction as soon as they met, have grown closer and are finally ready to give a relationship between them a shot. But nothing is that simple. The group is on a mission in Munich, when things get complicated and dangerous. People from the past show up to threaten their future and no one's lives will ever be the same again. 

I really enjoyed this book. This series has been building up to and foreshadowing a big, tragic event that happens in Munich. In this book, we finally know what happened. There is a lot of emotion, excitement and suspense. The story is fast paced and an easy read. I did find the second half of the book to be heavier on the suspense than the romance. I felt like the romantic resolution was kind of vague, but I'm sure we will have more resolution in future books. I really liked Ariel and Robert together and found them a good match. I would have liked a more detailed communication between the couple to feel that all of their issues were resolved. Still, I was okay with how it all worked out. 

Overall, Lost in You was a great addition to this exciting, suspenseful, sexy series. This book adds good progress to the ongoing series story arc. I can't wait for more from this series and from Lexi Blake in the future.
