When tragedy strikes an engagement party, Special Agent Parisa Maxwell becomes the sole survivor and the only witness to a kidnapping and the theft of a legendary diamond. With her friend now missing, Parisa makes a promise to save the other woman, no matter the cost.

Jared MacIntyre's entire life is a carefully cultivated set of lies. He wasn't looking for the beautiful brunette when he ventured into the private rooms at the consulate, but he couldn't ignore the woman fighting for her life. Now their lives are inexplicably intertwined. The kidnapping and theft may be part of a bigger, deadlier plot--one that he's on a mission to stop before someone else he loves ends up dead.

Two strangers, each with their own secrets. Two strangers who never expected to find love amidst the danger. Two strangers who will have to take the ultimate risk: trust each other--or lose everything.

Don't miss this thrilling, chilling, new romantic suspense by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy.

PRAISE FOR THE FBI SERIES!

"Perilous Trust is a non-stop thriller that seamlessly melds jaw-dropping suspense with sizzling romance, and I was riveted from the first page to the last...Readers will be breathless in anticipation as this fast-paced and enthralling love story evolves and goes in unforeseeable directions." USA Today HEA Blog

"Barbara Freethy's first book in her OFF THE GRID series is an emotional, action packed, crime drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat...I'm exhausted after reading this but in a good way. 5 Stars!" Booklovers Anonymous on Perilous Trust

"Reckless Whisper is intriguing, complicated and chilling. Bree finds herself drawn into a web of deceit that has close personal ties. What makes this tale so scary is that the pieces to the puzzle are lying in plain sight but putting them together is a confusing mind game. The twists are endless, the danger is far reaching, and the thrills are nonstop." Isha C. Goodreads

"Desperate Play is flat out wonderful and will have you gasping, twitching, frantically turning pages, and hoping our favorite author writes the next story quickly! Undercover FBI agent, astrophysicist whose best friend has been murdered, a boatload of potential suspects, complicated family dynamics and lots of danger and yes, some heat all add up to a very satisfying read." Jane - Goodreads

"What I love best about Freethy's books are the characters and the depth she puts in them, the story can be as good as ever, but if you don't care about the characters you can't help but be unbothered by the events unfolding. This story has so many twists and turns that I read it in one sitting...a must read for everyone, I don't want to ruin anything, so I will just say...WOW" Booklovers Anonymous Blog on Perilous Trust

Another Incredible Romantic Thriller in the Off the Grid - FBI Series

Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2020

Wow! Another wonderful story in the Off the Grid-FBI series. Barbara Freethy has once again delivered an incredible romantic thriller with Elusive Promise. I absolutely loved Elusive Promise, the fourth book in her Off the Grid-FBI series. Each book in the series keeps getting better and better. Elusive Promise had me guessing throughout the story as to who was behind the kidnapping and the other thrilling events. I could not out it down. I loved every page. I really enjoyed how the book was told from the perspective of the main characters. I love getting the insight and feelings from the different characters. Barbara Freethy has once again shown that she is a master storyteller. Elusive Promise is the story of Parisa Maxwell, an undercover FBI agent whose specialty is foreign languages and Jared MacIntyre, a CIA agent whose cover is a journalist. Parisa and Jared meet at the engagement party of one of Parisa's childhood friends, Jasmine Kumar. Parisa and Jasmine have not seen each other in more than fifteen years. Jared is at the engagement party as an uninvited guest. During the party Parisa and Jasmine go to talk in Jasmine's bedroom at the consulate, while in the bedroom a poisonous gas flows from the ventilation system. Jasmine is kidnapped wearing the family heirloom that Westley gave her as her engagement ring. Jared rescues Parisa on two separate occasions, once at the consulate and again at an FBI safe house. While they are searching for clues into Jasmine's kidnapping, and the attempts on Parisa's life, Parisa and Jaredshare secrets from their past and begin to explore their feelings for one another. Jared admits that he thinks that Jasmine's kidnapping is related to a bombing in Paris where April, his friend and coworker was killed. Parisa and Jared both reveal their true identities to one another. My favorite part of the story is when Jared tells Parisa that he wants to be her home. I really enjoy the poignant and bittersweet moments, the plot twists and the surprises that I have come to love and expect in Barbara Freethy's books and Elusive Promise did not disappoint. One of my favorite parts of the story are the poignant moments that Jared shares with Parisa when telling her about his mother's death and the moments they share at his childhood home. I love that Damon Wolfe, was Parisa's FBI contact in the story. I love catching up with the other characters from the series. I love how all Barbara Freethy's epilogues, wrap up the ending of the story and are always my favorite part of her books. Never would I have guessed who was involved the Jasmine's kidnapping and the attempts on Parisa's life, that was truly a surprise plot twist. I love how all the lose ends got tied up. I love the characters and the way she describes the locations in and around New York City. It was really an incredible story and I loved every page.

Enjoyable read

I really liked this book and am happy with the continuation of the series. The book is well written, the storyline is intriguing and Jared and Parisa have a good chemistry. Since this is a continuing storyline, and Damon had a small role, I was a bit disappointed that Wyatt and Bree weren't involved.

*SPOILERS*
There were a couple of loose ends that bothered me... one of the big mysteries of the story was who invited Parisa to the engagement party but it was never answered and it seemed like a major plot point. Also, the series keeps setting Vincent Rowland up as the villan, but he didn't have much to do with this story and it felt like he should have.

Otherwise an enjoyable read.

Suspense, romance, spellbound from the beginning to end!

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2018

When reading the books in the Off the Grid series, you find yourself captivated by the hero and the heroine. In Elusive Promise, Jared & Parisa, don't disappoint from page one. Once you start, you can't stop reading until the end. Parisa has just finished an assignment and is attending the engagement party of a friend when she finds herself the sole survivor of a kidnapping. For me, this story truly defines the word suspense and romance very well. Spellbound, exciting and fun, yes fun, to read!
Barbara Freethy has done an excellent job of developing the story lines and the characters. I can't wait to find out who is stalking the Team 6 members!

Excellent page-turner story

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

Excellent story that keeps you guessing from the beginning. This story unfolded gradually giving the reader just enough information to keep you wondering who was responsible for the kidnapping and bombing and if they were related. The characters of the story were believable and had purpose. Paris’s and Jared had a great connection and passion for justice. Romantic moments were tasteful and not graphic which is appreciated. Will look for more stories in the FBI series as readers enjoy page turning suspense with mild romantic scenes. Well done!

Chemistry from first glance. The overarching question of trusting Vincent is still present, but this story focuses on a kidnapping and terrorist plot. The characters are well developed and the story is fast paced. I enjoy this series and this was a great addition!

This book is just as good as the ones before. The kidnapping of a friend, an ridiculously expensive ring with a curse, a murder attempt on an FBI agent and a mystery! I love the solving of the crime and the romance. Always with feeling and not over done. I really can’t wait for the next book.
