An action-filled romantic suspense novel, “Dark’N’Deadly”, by Tee O’Fallon (Entangled: Amara), addresses disturbing pertinent issues in a realistic way and features a romantic couple that seem to have opposite personalities, but soon share plenty of chemistry and find common ground.
Terrorism, bombing, human slavery, domestic violence. sovereign citizen extremists - all this reads real and is interesting, as well as the leads’ very troubled upbringings and families.
Eric is a tortured hero, affected by survivor’s guilt, a tough ATF special agent, yet so gentle, tender and considerate with the heroine, Tess.
Tess is a brave woman, but hiding so much. The siblings’ connection is touching.
Eric and Tess’s connection is slowly built when they fight a common threat and evil.
There’s lots of action, some of the romantic couple’s reactions seemed a bit unrealistic, as well as Tess’s ignorance about locator apps and the hiding/lying about crucial matters.
At some point, the action and the sex scenes seemed a bit redundant and I felt the story could be compressed.
Great secondary characters, a truly wonderful dog – Tiger – and a promising new romantic couple, Dayne and Katrina.

4.25⭐

Dark 'N' Deadly was an exciting, intriguing absorbing, well paced tale. That had suspense and mystery. Not to mention a little action. As well as likable characters who, are the complete opposite of each other. But that didn't stop them falling in love, and I loved how it all played out, and the fact that it wasn't easy, and that they both had big obstacles to overcome. Not just in personality, but with the secrets Tess kept to keep her brother Jesse safe and out of prison. And I was totally engaged throughout. So much, so, I found it exceedingly hard to put this story down, and I would happily recommend it to others.

Wow! Tess and Eric not only had some amazing chemistry, but their protectiveness for each other and Tess' brother was admirable. The action and suspense was scary and eerily believable! The K-9s and their handlers are serious heroes! I can't wait to read more of these federal K-9s...

Dark 'N' Deadly is the third book in the Federal K-9 series by Tee O'Fallon and is a romantic suspense. A story that is full of drama, action, steamy romance, and twists and turns around every corner. O'Fallon pulls you into an action-packed world where chemistry and attractions cannot be ignored. When secrets and lies that were once buried deep come to light will they survive? Let's not forget about the possible bomb threat that could destroy everything. Dark 'N' Deadly is an emotional roller coaster of a ride that is sure to keep you turning the pages as fast as possible. You will not want to put this one down. While Dark 'N' Deadly is part of the Federal K-9 series, it can easily be read as a standalone. I look forward to reading the next book in the Federal K-9 series.

Tee O’Fallon writes a wonderful and in depth law enforcement procedural. Tess and Eric have history together. Nine months later when they meet the circumstances are not great. They are like night and day in personalities. Tess is lightness even among all the darkness she has experienced in her life. Eric likes order and grey. His best friend is his K-9 partner. When he arrests Tess’ brother it gives him an opportunity to spend time with her. This is an intense and action packed story. The author takes the reader on a tour that shows the great work that law enforcement does to catch the bad guys. It also looks at parenting and how what happens in our childhood can impact our adulthood. Both Tess and Eric are struggling with the impact their parents have had on their lives. They each have to struggle and find their way through these horrors before they can come out on the sunny side. There is also heated moments that will leave you turning the pages.

I have loved every book in this K-9 series and this one was no exception. The books always have plenty of drama and suspense but also a great romance story and the true star of the show is always the dog.

The two characters in this book are total opposites Eric Miller and his dog Tiger are totally in control at all times everything by the book Eric has a rule and a time for everything in his life Then he meets Tess McTavish she is a woman who believes in no rules and tends to live in her won dream world believing in a lot of things that Eric would see as hocus pocus, but they are perfect for one another she makes him unwind and he grounds her. With her and her brother involved with the group that Eric believes expressible for his teams death years ago is he only using her or will something that can last develop between them.

I was given a copy of this book but this is a true and honest review

Everything I need in an exciting book: suspense, muscles, cool dog and a strong heroine. Tess had a tough life, making life altering decisions which led to not seeing family for ten years. She's happy, finding success and continuing her education. Eric was in another book where he and Tess met but never pursued anything. But ever since neither have stopped thinking about each other. A simple run in with her brother has them embroiled in a mess involving sovereign citizens, never a good thing, and possible bombs. I was glued to my seat and hanging on every word, excellent storytelling. Even though this is book three, it is independent of the others with a separate storyline and characters. My copy came through Netgalley.

Such a happy feeling is what I'm feeling right now when starting this review, because this book was everything I was hoping for it to be. It's such an amazing feeling to read a book you were looking forward to reading so much and that it lives up to your expectations.

Ever since reading the first book by Tee O’Fallon, I’ve been hooked to her writing and can’t stop wanting more every time I finish a new book. Finishing Dark ’N’ Deadly has me feeling the same again: I LOVED this book so much and I want MORE.

I really loved Tee’s other series as well, …, but the Federal K-9 is my fave because for one; I love dogs, especially Shepherds and these K-9 dogs are just the absolute best! I’ve fallen in love with the characters and their dogs in the first 2 books and now there’s Eric Miller and his K-9 Tiger as well, whom made me fall in love yet again.

I love how Tee always manages to give these K-9’s such a strong presence in the stories and how she perfectly embodies how beautiful a bond can be with a (working) dog. Tiger was adorable but badass at the same time and the perfect partner for Eric, who needed to be grounded every once in a while, often with help from Tiger haha. Eric’s character development was strong and well written - I’m so thankful we get to read these stories from 2 pop’s because it gives me as a reader a good opportunity to create a connection with both of them. And Eric truly is a character you just can’t stop falling in love with and wanting more of in my honest opinion, lol. I hope if you decide to pick this series up, you’ll end up loving these guys and their K-9 dogs just as much as I do.

Tess was nothing short of amazing either. I love how she fights for her little brother but I really liked seeing her vulnerable side as well. She doesn’t always make the best decisions out of fear and love but she’s a strong and good person at heart whom I really came to like a lot as well. I liked how easily she got herself familiar with Eric, his dog and his home and how she turned his world upside down. I felt for everything she went through in her past and loved seeing how she came out stronger. Aside from her being strong enough on her own, I also liked how Eric and she complemented each other really well. Eric and Tess prove that opposites really do attract and it was a lot of fun to see their romance developing. Their chemistry was so palpable and it definitely had me all hot & bothered, just the way I like it ;) Two characters whom, despite their differences, just really click and the execution of it all was just really well done.

I love how well the author is able to manage the elements present and have it all balanced out really nicely: Suspense, action, a steamy romance, such lovable characters and a strong story-line, all combined with such addictive writing. Once started, I never wanted to stop and I therefore finished it in one-sitting. And now I’m finished, I’m already looking forward to the next book, if there’s going to be one - I REALLY HOPE SO, because there are many more characters I need to get better aquatinted with *eyebrow wiggle. I just really can’t get enough of Tee’s writing in general and this awesome set of characters in the Federal K-9 series. These stories are going to be re-read a lot in my future. They’re just perfect!

Once again, Tee O’Fallon provided me a new favorite book, filled with a strong female character, a sexy K-9 handler and his super awesome K-9 dog. What more could you want?! Exactly! This series is a must-read if you ask me!

This is the story of Eric Miller ATF Special Agent his explosive detecting K-9 Tiger and Tess McTavish. Eric pulls over a truck and it contends explosives. The driver is the kid brother of a woman he left behind and still haunts him. 

They have never eve  kissed yet she cant forget Eric. The last thing she needs is an ATF agent involved with her family. Forget the fact that she and her brother are innocent if Eric finds out about her past she will never be free.

Eric is looking for revenge against the man that targeted him and his colleagues in an explosion. There is another bomb about to go off and he is sure there is a connection between that man and Tess's family. Eric and his K9 Tiger will do whatever they can to protect Tess.
I really enjoyed the story line and the chemistry between the hero and heroine in this story. Will Eric be able to protect Tess? This book is great it has romance, danger, secrets and lies. Can they get through all of the obstacles and end up together? The author knows how to tell a story that draws you in and you cannot put down until its finished. I loved it if I could give it more then 5 stars I would. 
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This is a series I have enjoyed and I had planned on buying for myself. I really have enjoyed this K9 series.

Like the others in this series Dark 'N' Deadly features a hot cop and his K-9 companion. This book takes us to some dark places where you are glad we have heroes like ATF Special Agent Eric Miller and his explosives detecting K-9, Tiger to keep us safe. I absolutely adored hippy dippy Tess McTavish and the way she shakes up Eric’s world. This is a well written story bound to keep you flipping pages. A terrific addition to the series but each book can be read stand alone.

Such a good book it was hard to put down. I look forward to the next in this series. I would recommend this book to fellow readers for sure. Tee O’Fallon did amazing writing this book!

*I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving my review.

I love when I discover a new to me author and can't wait to check their back list...because you know my TBR pile is not high enough yet to touch the moon.
Tiger was the star of this book, this furry, four legged, smart dog. Eric and his K-9 are partners, couldn't think of a better team. Tess and her brother are in danger and Eric turns his life upside down to help them. I think he needed some colour in his life and home. They all have history and little do they know it's connected. Great action in this tale, plenty of heart stopping moments and some added sizzle. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend this book.

This was a great story with lots of action. Eric was an ATF agent and K-9 handler. Eric was a great character and I really enjoyed Tiger who was his dog. Tess was the complete opposite of Eric and had a rotten past of her own. Jesse was Tess's brother and another good character. When Eric gets involved trying to find out who was building a new bomb the past comes back for Tess. Lots of great chemistry and some steam. Great plot and fantastic secondary characters. Loved it!

. Wow, another amazing story in this amazing series. From the first page until the last, this thriller pulled me in and kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. It was non stop action, suspense, intrigue and danger. Eric and Tess were great characters. There were many wonderful characters in this thrilling story that I would love to read more about. I also love all of the K 9's in in this series. I can't wait to read what this talented author writes next.

If I could give this book a 10 star rating I would.
We are back with the K-9 group of officers who with their brave and wonderful dogs, fight for justice .
This time the story belongs to ATF Special Agent Eric Miller, his dog Tiger and Tess McTavish. A woman he’s been avoiding because of his attraction to her. She has secrets and he has an agenda to catch the person responsible for the deaths of his friends.
Fate brings them back together when Tess’s brother , a boy she hasn’t seen in 10 years, reaches out to her. when he’s in trouble.
The story is filled with action , bad guys, half-truths, and an attraction that can’t be denied.
It’s also a story about how our childhood does in fact molds us as adults. Scars remain, as do the fears from long ago.
At times heart wrenching as your heart feels crushed and beating fast, not only because of the action, but also because these two have had to overcome so very much not only individually but also together.
Can they overcome the danger that surrounds them as well as the mistrust and fears of being hurt emotionally?
Once again, the author excels in her storytelling. Can’t wait to see what else the author has in store for us. Hopefully it will beDayne’s story.
I was entrusted this copy by Netgalley and Entangled Publishing. The opinions expressed are soley my own.

Great thriller filled with action, mystery, and lots of steamy romance!
Tess was born and raised in Louisiana by her step father, a known sovereign citizen leader. His cruelty and evil have no limits. Tess was lucky enough to escape at the age of 18, but had to leave her baby brother behind. Fast forward ten years, and Tess has made a life for herself in New Jersey where she has friends, a job, and is working on her degree. Out of the blue her brother calls begging for her help. It appears their step father has upped his ante and is using Jesse to transport explosives which will be used to build a bomb and cause massive destruction. Can Tess, while working with Eric and his K-9 dog Tiger, help stop her step father before it is too late? Will Erick ever be able to get past all the lies and deceit to find happiness with Tess?
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I have read the first two books in this series, and loved them...and this one was just as good. I loved Tess, and really felt for her, torn between protecting her brother or taking a chance on love with Eric. The case was gripping and I loved Jessie...would be amazing if the author did his story...obviously set a few years from now. Can’t wait for the next book in this series

I love Tee and her stories and this book was no different! I have read the earlier books in this series, but I admit it has been so long that I don't remember much. That was no issue and this story completely stands alone (though I would read them in order :)) Eric and Tess are such a great couple, and their chemistry was a carryover from when they first met. Eric is such a great hero, and Tess's cheerfulness really comes off the page - she is such a positive and colorful heroine. They are a perfect example of opposites attract, and it was super fun to experience their journey. Tee's life experience makes the story so much richer. I loved everything about this story and can't wait for more in this series!

This book had me on the edge of my seat! I have read the earlier books in this series, but I admit it has been so long that I don't remember much. That was no issue and this story completely stands alone, but now I want to go back and re-read the last book to get even more of Eric and Tess! They really are a great couple, and I liked the second chance aspect of the romance. Eric is such a great hero, and it was moving to watch him wrap his head around falling in love. Tess's cheerfulness really comes off the page, and she is such a positive and colorful heroine. They are a perfect example of opposites attract, and I love seeing what she brings out in him! I loved everything about this story and can't wait for more in this series!
