Review: Rubin by Dale Mayer 4 of 5 stars

Rubin










Rubin by Dale Mayer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mason forms a covert black ops team — the Aces — to take on missions that cut through bureaucracy and deliver real results. Rubin, hesitant at first, joins at the urging of his friend Trent, unaware of the chaos and danger that lie ahead. Meanwhile, Tricia, a graduate student with a bright future, is abducted during a night out, her life suddenly thrown into peril. Captive and terrified, she questions whether she was targeted or simply unlucky. Her chance at survival comes when Rubin intervenes, giving her the opportunity to escape. Their path to safety is fraught with danger, unexpected twists, and relentless threats. Amid the suspense, a powerful connection grows between Tricia and Rubin, turning their fight for survival into a journey of courage, trust, and burgeoning romance.

I loved this story which was about action, suspense, and the unexpected bond between two people who find love while fighting for survival. I liked how chaos became the crucible for both the special ops team and Tricia where resilience and courage are tested, and control is reclaimed through action. I also loved that the story asked whether heroism is born of fate or choice, and how one act can alter lives forever. A very enjoyable story that clearly showed the collision of chaos and control, where survival sparks resilience, loyalty fuels heroism, and love blooms in the most unlikely, perilous circumstances. Clear and easy to understand feelings and emotions. I did find the quick ending of Rubin and Tricia being together a bit abrupt. This was an MF story with a little mature content at the very end.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
