Lyla Fox knows she has a reputation at the SNAP Agency for impulsivity, but when she receives a threatening letter from a man she helped put in prison, she can't stop herself from going all in to find out why he's coming after her. Unfortunately, she's going to need the help of the one person who questions her reckless choices more than anyone else. 

Explosives and weapons specialist Nicolás Garcia agrees to help Lyla in order to keep her safe, but her recklessness continues to be a major concern, especially when her investigation into a conspiracy puts a target on her back. Dealing with bombs is dangerous. Working with Lyla is proving to be just as treacherous -- to both the mission and his heart.

Natalie Walters closes out her SNAP Agency series with a bang with this nail - biting story of a deadly        government conspiracy, an unlikely couple, and an ending that will leave you breathless.

Blind Trust by Natalie Walters is the 3rd book in her SNAP Agency series and it does not disappoint!  In this last installment, we follow agents Lyla Fox and Nicolas Garcia's suspense-filled love story through danger and dark secrets. Lyla and Nicolas have worked together at the SNAP agency for years, but Lyla has a tendency to make impulsive decisions that seem to keep putting her in harms way.  After an incident involving a crooked doctor that nearly got her shot, Nicolas doesn't trust himself to work with Lyla at the agency anymore. His feelings for her are starting to become a liability in regards to his decision making and believes time away would be best for both of them. But, ghosts from Lyla's past are determined to comeback and haunt her in more ways than one.  This causes Lyla to have a target on her back and she'll need Nicolas now more than ever. 

I love romantic suspense thrillers just like Blind Trust! I knew from the first chapter that this book was going to be hard to put down! From start to finish, Blind Trust will keep you wondering what will happen next!  I really enjoyed the slow-burn romance between Lyla and Nicolas.  It was very realistic and kept you rooting for them throughout the story. It never felt forced and you could see their relationship develop and grow from co-workers/friends, to something much more.  Walters also does a great job with the different POVs in this book. You get to see Lyla and Nicolas's internal conflicts and feelings, but you also get to see what's going on with other side characters that are pivotal to the overall plot of the story.  It really helped in getting a better picture of what was happening, rather than the story being told only through Lyla and Nicolas' eyes. Characters from the previous two books also come out and are there to help. Blind Trust is a Christian romantic suspence novel, and there are themes of trusting in God to get you through the difficult times in life, love, and work. 

Overall, I really loved reading Blind Trust.  One of the aspects I loved most is that you never really could predict what would happen next.  You don't have to read the first two books before this one; however, you will see characters from the previous books in this story. So if you want to know thier stories first, I recommend starting with book one. I just love Walters writing style, it's so easy to get absorbed in the pages of her stories. Blind Trust was a definite page-turner and I can't wait to read the next Natalie Walters series!  

5 Stars!
