Goodreads | Amazon | B&N | BookDepo

She sees brief glimpses of the future…
Nika and Alena Brennan will do anything to kill a vicious Russian crime boss and they’re using his only son to get to him. Yet when the time comes to execute their plan, psychic Nika hesitates due to an unexpected entanglement with sexy security expert Declan Gallagher. When her sister is kidnapped and all their carefully laid plans go awry, Nika must depend on Declan and her mortal enemy’s son to get her sister back.
He invades her dreams and teases her with sensual pleasures…
As a dream walker, Declan is capable of seeing anyone’s innermost thoughts as they sleep. With Nika, however, he finds himself playing a deadly, seductive game. He knows she’s not who she says she is and he’s determined to find out the real reason she’s in Miami before she gets herself or someone else killed.
Time is running out…
Nika’s window of opportunity is closing to save her sister and find a way to protect their secrets without landing them both in jail. With innocent lives at stake, Nika must decide if the retribution she’s waited a lifetime for is worth losing the man who has won her heart.
Nika and Alena Brennan will have their revenge even though it comes at a high price.

After witnessing their parents’ brutal murder, Alena has vowed to avenge them. With the help of her psychic sister, Nika, they have managed to eliminate three of their targets but there’s still one more to go, the man who ordered the hit against their parents. But to get close to him they will have to get close to his son, Andre. Nika has a bad feeling about their latest plan. It sounds easy but can they really pull through with something like that?

Former CIA agent and owner of a private security firm, Declan is tasked with protecting Andre and eliminate any threat against him. But Declan has a secret, he is a dream walker. So when Andre shows up with the two beautiful sisters thought to have killed three powerful men, Declan knows that he will have to look beneath the surface, especially since he can’t stay away from Nika.

Nika thought that Declan was just a projection of her imagination, the man who invades her dreams. She never would have imagined that he was real. Until they meet in Miami. The chemistry between them is off the charts but Nika can’t allow him to mess up with their plans. At the same time though she can’t but wonder if what they are about to do will cost them their lives.

Retribution was an amazing book. It was an action packed book with romance, mystery, suspense, twists and a touch of paranormal. Nika and Declan were such an awesome couple. They were strong, protective, a bit hesitant at first but as soon as they find out more about each other, fireworks.

There is so much action and suspense to the story. Nika and Alena are a step away from their last target, they know they mustn’t hesitate but they never thought they would face such distractions. I really can’t be satisfied with the end though. Nika and Declan’s story was a beautiful one but what about Alena and Andre? Andre knows that Alena used him to get to his father but for him their brief relationship was real. I really hope their get their own story and find their HEA.

Retribution is a must read. How can you not read a book with such a cover?

Highly recommended!
