Book Recommendation - Spies, Lies & Alibis

 

I've been reading Natalie Walters' books since her debut and have thoroughly enjoyed all of her books. Her sense of humor aligns with my own and her "Sweet and Stabby" brand is on point. Her upcoming novel is the first in a new series and it hits the ground running and is so much fun. Filled with the banter that Walters is known for, along with an intricate "James Bond spy thriller" plot line and wonderful characters that I feel could be my friends in real life, this book had all of the right things going for it! Here's a bit about the novel:

They were each other's first love. Now they might be each other's last hope.

Cybil Langford has spent years hiding behind her polished, professional facade as the executive assistant to a powerful real estate mogul, where she's perfectly positioned to collect intel on her boss's criminal network. But when her mission leads her into the path of Lorenzo Ramirez--a ruthless crime boss with deadly plans--she'll need every ounce of cunning and charm to stay one step ahead.

Then he walks back into her life.

Ben Bradley is deep undercover for the FBI, living under an alias, as a financial advisor with a reputation for helping the wealthy and corrupt launder their money. His target? Lorenzo Ramirez, a dangerous crime boss with his hands in everything from smuggling to murder. But when a familiar face from his past suddenly reappears, things get . . . complicated.

The last time Cybil saw Ben, he was an annoying prankster--and her first crush. The last time Ben saw Cybil, she stole a piece of his heart. Neither expected to run into each other at a high-stakes fundraising gala where crime, corruption, and undercover agendas collide. Now, they're both keeping dangerous secrets--and working dangerously close to blowing each other's cover.

Forced to work together to stop a catastrophic deal that could arm America's enemies, Cybil and Ben must face ruthless criminals, hidden agendas, and the ghosts of their past. Trust is a luxury they can't afford--but love? That just might be their undoing.

The intel is classified. The trust is fragile. And their covers are one lie away from blowing wide open.

This book releases May 19, 2026. Do yourself a favor and check it out! You won't regret it. For more information, check out the following links:
