This series has been amazing so far!! This installment was no exception. It’s a fast-paced, action-packed adventure filled with mayhem, romance, and a gripping plot that kept me hooked from start to finish.

This was a very fun and short read.... the story their connection but it was fast paced so besides that there's nothing bad to say it.. It made sense and the story actually worked very well

If you’re looking for a fast paced, exciting, action packed romance, this is that book. I loved and immediately felt connected to the characters. The storyline held my attention from start to finish, and the book is very well-written. My only complaint is that it moved a little too fast in places I’d have liked to have seen more of the story play out. Still, the book was definitely worth the read.

Operation Valastro is definitely a page turner! I read this in one day! The story between Chef Valentina and Dr. Kincaid and how they are put together is fabulous. The arch nemesis of the Castle keeps raising his ugly head, but we have to see how long is it for!! Fantastic book!! Thanks U. M. Hiram, excellent writing.
