I received an ARC from Netgalley for an honest review.
Very good suspense and sensual ++ romance. This serie is a real success. and each book is a "can't put it down" one. The characters are strong; sympathic with high heroic values.
But I have a few comments that may not disturb other readers at all because it's all due to me not reading the series in order..
I had read 2 other of the series before this one (#2 and #1 in that order).. Again it annoyed me a little that the characters' story began before the book so you have to catch up with things - I said this is obviously acceptable if you read the series from #1 to next ones..
Some details about how the bad guys discovered and crashed supposedly very high secured places tickled me a little (I'm talking about the attack at the lawyer's office).. Again it does not ruin the plot or the suspense but it brings a tiny deception while relating high tech security in the hole book aside.from that.

Fast Justice
In our next story we have Malcolm and Rowan and if you read the previous book you know that there is some issues concerning Rowan and Malcolm. If you think I loved Kai, then I am head over heels for Malcolm!! Its just that he is all in and so freaking wonderful, just a great guy and I have to admit that I was not a fan of Rowan. However, as per Cross's wonderful writing she sort of redeemed Rowan's character in this book. Malcolm goes all in when trouble hits the fan and Rowan becomes the center of danger. Again filled with action, suspense, and all of our lovable past and future characters, I found myself only wanting to read more. In the end I am glad that Rowan and Malcolm are able to get back together. 4 stars*****

*****I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book provided by NetGalley*****

Fast Justice was a sweet second chance romance with tons of action. My heart hurt for Malcolm in the last book. He was still hurting from Rowan calling off their relationship and now he was stuck working with her. So going into this book I knew I would have a bit of a problem with Rowan since she broke Malcolm's heart. However I really ended up liking Rowan. She was relatable. Smart, and sweet, still I had a hard time with the fact that she didn't tell Malcolm she was sorry and wanted a second chance. I would have like some groveling on her part since she hurt Mal so badly. Instead Mal had to make the first move. Malcolm on the other hand I fell madly in love with. He was strong, smart, protective, and just an all around great guy. I love how he was all in with Rowan. OMG the action in this book was spot on. I was biting my nails, freaking out, wondering how far the bad guy would go before the heroes saved the day. The answer was pretty flipping far!!! Fast Justice was a great Romantic Suspense read and I can't wait to read Victoria's book!

Brilliant read with all the things I enjoy in a book with a brilliant storyline and characters and I will look forward to reading more from you from this author thank you for my arc

The next book in the DEA fast series has U.S. Assistant Attorney Rowan Stewart being assigned her most important case of her career. The problem she has when she walks in is that the man she has to work with part of the time is the man she walked away from. Special Agent Malcom Freeman was not pressuring her for anything, she was pressuring herself and because of that she got up one morning and told him she cannot do this anymore and broke it off, afraid that he would want more, or she would want more. Always following her father’s footsteps she now finds herself right back where she started. Looking at the man she is still in love with but wanting the job and the promotion that goes with it. When the daughter of the drug cartel walks in and says she is turning herself in and will help as much as she can no one believes her. For weeks it goes that way until her mother is killed, they find the tracking device that her father had put into her how, and then Stewart’s car is blown up but her brother is the one how is hurt not her. She begins to look more and more at her life again and again and what she walked away from, or the possibility of. Love, children, and being with someone that cares for you. What will she do especially when Malcolm tells her he loves her and does not understand why she left? A very good story with many story lines and just when you think you are getting close to capturing the scorpion, not. A good book to go along with the series.

[TW: rape]

As I was reading this book, I realized that I actually haven't read RS for a long time??? Who am I-

Anyway, Fast Justice is about exactly that: delivering fast justice. Or attempting to, at least. Our heroine, Rowan, is an Assistant US Attorney who's prosecuting a notorious drug cartel member, and in that process she finds herself having to work with Malcolm, a DEA agent, and the man she broke up with a year ago and the one she couldn't forget.

There was a lot of tension, both from the high profile case and also from these two. Malcolm was really hurt when Rowan dumped him, and he wasn't really over it. I appreciate the switch in the story--it's always the heroine who's hurt in the other books I've read. I love how they resolved that conflict--I LOVE COMMUNICATION (!!!). I love how Malcolm just bare his heart out even though Rowan hurt him once, and I love how Rowan finally decided to stop being scared and trust her feelings for him.

Overall, it was an entertaining ride. I can't wait to read Victoria and Brock's book!

I am so happy to be back reading Kaylee Cross. My reading world took me in a new direction, and then this popped up. This is why I fell in love with her writing, fast paced, great characters, and wonderful love stories, all while running from disaster and evil men. Just the best things a good book is for.

Wow......twists and turns and drama along the way. The story has you hooked from the get go and keeps you turning the pages to find out what is going to happen next. Definitely couldn’t put this one down, held me captivated right through to the very end. I love how Kaylea Cross brings her story and characters to life before your eyes. A definitely must read and a five star book all day long in my opinion. I would definitely and absolutely recommend this book to all book lovers out there, go get your copy today and find out what your are missing.

This was a sexy, suspenseful book. I love the characters, and the plot was awesome. Kaylea Cross did it again. I could not put the book down! I can't wait for the next one.

Lots of suspense and action. The development of Malcolm and Rowan's relationship was great. They moved on from their past and were able to determine that if nothing else they could trust each other during these trying times. But as the bad guys keep showing up where they shouldn't, the trust turns into more. Can they catch the bad guys and start on their future?

This is such a wonderful book! It’s book 6 but I haven’t read the other books and had no trouble following the storyline. The author is new to me but I just loved her writing. The words flow together so well. I received an advance review copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Kaylea Cross’ latest in the DEA FAST series, Fast Justice is one many like me had been waiting to read. Rowan Stewart’s story did not disappoint! You just knew that Rowan and Malcolm were not finished in spite of her having broken off their relationship earlier. It is just a captivating story from beginning to end.

The intense action-packed suspense is balance with the powerful emotional relationship rebuilding between Rowan and Malcolm. The danger to Rowan bring them back together as well as serve as an eye opening for Rowan. Their story is one of maturity and amends. Usually it is the male in these types of stories that need to admit that they were wrong. I liked that it was the female in this story but even more that she was a strong enough woman to do so. Fast Justice is a gripping story with characters that are able to act at the moment and also able to give serious thought to their actions. It is a win-win for the reader.

The novel is tied to the overarching theme which may make this a bit more difficult to read as a stand-alone. The background story is given when needed but a new reader may feel that they need more. If you have kept up with the series, this is a must read. Outstanding.

An ARC of the book was given to me by the publisher through Net Galley which I voluntarily chose to read and reviewed. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Rowan is a the Assistant U.S. attorney and working on a high profile case. Ruiz had a woman kidnapped raped, and killed her whole family. He is part of the Mexican cartel but is in jail now. Malcolm is a member of FAST and former military. He and Rowan dated and then she broke things off. Now he’s her guard until the FBI can gets agents to take over after her car explodes and almost kills her brother. When she’s kidnapped to get information out of her, Malcolm is ready to kill anyone that stands in his way. Can he find her before she’s killed and save her and his heart?
Awesome story with characters who are strong, patriotic, and sexy. There are several other characters story being told too. I don’t want to give too much away. Suspense, action, sex, and of course bad guys. A little cliffhanger that I hope continues into the next book, which I can’t wait for.

Ms Cross writes and story that tugs at the heart while it makes you want a hero of your own.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the first page to the last and found myself interested in the characters, beyond the story-line. Well written, captivating and detailed, this story provided the emotional roller coaster of romance with the heart stopping action and intrigue of a thriller.

I chose this story from the book description, but would certainly buy further books through the author herself. Highly recommended for romance and action lovers.

Kaylea Cross DEA Fast series is a fast pace action romance that will keep readers wanting more. This time you are meeting Rowan Stewart strong Assistant US Attorney and Special Agent Malcolm Freeman is FAST Bravo. They both have feeling that never went away even after Rowan decided she wasn't ready for a serious relationship. Fast Justice is book 6 but the author is able to bring readers up to date quickly without covering the same topics in the same style as the first 5 books in the series. The second story is still unknown ending but that is what will keep readers hooked until the last book is finished in the DEA Bravo Series.
This book is a perfect beach read. Readers can savor it or read it in one sitting loving every second.
Thank you to Netgalley and the Author Kaylea Cross for a copy of Kaylea Cross Fast Justice

Awesome!

Action packed, fast paced, suspenseful and beautiful! I couldn’t put it down.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

Cross has a writing style that often puts the hero head over heels for the heroine, instead of the other way around. This is no exception. Mal has loved Rowan for a year, but she dumped him. As circumstances bring them together, they get a chance to work through this while continuing to try to shut down the Venenos gang.

Mal and Rowan have a HFN/HEA ending but there are lots of loose ends leading to the next story.

Cross never fails to entertain with her stories. Fast Justice grabs you from the start and doesn't let go until the end.

Intense nd exhilarating. Second Chance books are my favorite. This book was well written, properly edited and the characters are engaging. There are several things going on in this story but it's written in a way that it's not overwhelming or distracting. Beforeearned though, some of the things going on don't get resolved in this story or carry over from the previous book so they may not seem completely. The main story, the love and the survival of said love, must find a way to prosper through terror and fear. Can be read as a standalone but is so much better if the series is read in order.

Finally, finally, finally.

‘Fast Justice’ reminds me of all the reasons why I read Kaylea Cross’s books and having ploughed through the somewhat lacklustre stories from the previous stories in this series, having Rowan/Mal’s tale kick my enthusiasm back to life (measured in terms of the loss of sleeping hours) has been beyond a pleasant surprise. The hints of their broken romance in the previous book had gotten me intrigued and Mal, who is predictably gun-shy about starting up with Rowan again, finally gets his due…in a story that provoked a range of emotions from me.

Apart from the thoroughly engaging suspense, Cross writes about a woman who is willing to own up to her mistakes, who swallows her pride and grovels because she knows she’d left a heartbroken man in her wake…and finally goes after what she wants. I loved the excruciating moments of tension between Ro/Mal, the reluctant truce that breaks down because Rowan decides to shake it all up and her lead role in trying to build them back together again as she tries to mend the damage that she had done to them. For this reason, I couldn’t help but love a woman who’s brave enough to show this sort of maturity when too many cowardly characters that have recently come across my feed have nearly made me thrown several books against the wall in frustration. (Proverbially speaking, because I use an e-reader.)

By and large, this was a compelling read. The entanglements with the Veneno Cartel are woven deep into ‘Fast Justice’ and the developmental arc is more tightly spread over the last few books. In fact, I was surprised at how much of the events that happened in the previous books spilled over into this, wondering if it might be somewhat difficult for ‘Fast Justice’ to be read as a standalone. Cross does provide some explanation—though some parts might still be confusing to readers who step in at this point in time—and without shying away from the brutality of cartel activity, throws in a few twists and turns that helped balance the angst of Rowan/Mal’s situation.

The hasty conclusion after the climax and the loose threads that aren’t tied up by the end are probably my only complaints. It’s evident that Cross intends to continue this arc until the baddies drop dead one by one, but it’s going to be a wait that will span several books before this happens. But until that happens, I’m happily going to go back to the good bits that had me gnawing down my own teeth.
