Final Kill by Leslie McKelvey ❄️ Book Blast & Gift Card Giveaway ❄️ (Romantic Suspense)



The world doesn’t know Cat Beckett, CIA linguist and expert sniper. She does her best to keep her skills secret, but when a SEAL team is ambushed in the remote mountains of Afghanistan she doesn’t hesitate to take out the enemy. After saving the SEALs, the third Spec Ops team to be compromised in as many months, she realizes someone in her unit is giving classified information to the enemy. She suspects that Peter Mitchell, her supervisor and ex-lover, is behind the betrayal, and sets out on a dangerous quest to prove his treason.

Lt. Ryan Heller, US Navy SEAL, is accustomed to facing death. When his team is attacked by Taliban fighters he thinks his last day is upon him, until an unknown sniper saves their lives. The prickly, green-eyed beauty handles a rifle as easily as most women handle a purse, but who is she? And what is she doing in the middle of a war zone? He is intrigued, and attracted, but his instincts and her piercing, tiger-like stare tell him to tread carefully.

Afghanistan’s Bagram Valley is not the ideal place to find love, but these two are trained to make the best of bad situations. Geography alone makes starting a relationship challenging enough, but caught between extremists and an unhinged, obsessed Mitchell makes it downright deadly.





He scanned the hills and saw a flash of movement as Cat said:

“Ten o’clock, gentlemen, 30 meters south-southwest of that huge conifer.  See ‘em?”

Ryan adjusted his aim.  “Roger that.  Grady, you got eyes?”

“Affirmative, Reaper.  Locked and loaded.”

“Fire at will,” he said.

He started firing, and a grim smile curved his mouth when he saw a splash of blood on the snow behind the man he’d taken aim at.  The target went down, but like roaches, another took his place, and this one had a bigger weapon.

“RPG!” he called out.

The helicopter shuddered and left the ground.

“Got him,” Cat said, in a low, calm voice.

After the boom of the .416 it seemed like forever before the bullet hit home, even though Ryan knew less than a second had passed.  He whooped as the extremist with the grenade launcher took aim at the chopper at the same moment his chest blew apart.  The body remained standing for a few seconds.  Then the weapon fell to the ground and the dead man toppled over.

“Nice,” Ryan said, firing in rapid succession as terrorists continued to stream over the rocks and down the trail like ants on a mission.  There were more than a dozen, and probably more than that behind them.  “That puts you in double-digits today, doesn’t it?  Not bad.”

The .416 roared again.  “For a girl?”

“Hey,” Ryan began, “just because the US military thinks a sniper has to have a penis doesn’t mean I do.”  He paused, gave her a sidelong glance, and then lied through his teeth.  “And I hardly noticed you were a woman.”

Leslie McKelvey has been writing since she learned to write, and her mother still stores boxes of handwritten stories in the attic. When her high school Creative Writing teacher told her she needed to be a novelist, she decided to give it a try. Finally, at the ripe old age of...forty-something...her debut novel, Accidental Affair, was contracted and published by Black Velvet Seductions Publishing. Two follow-up novels, Right Place, Right Time and Her Sister’s Keeper completed the Accidental Encounters series, and Runaway Heart, a standalone book, was released in March of 2016. BVS also published one of Leslie’s short stories in the erotic anthology First Submission, and her fifth novel, Final Kill, will be released in late 2016.

Leslie is a war-veteran who served with the U.S. Navy during the Gulf War, and she was among the first groups of women to work the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. During her five years tour she was stationed at NAS Miramar and spent time on the carriers USS Independence, USS Ranger, USS Lincoln, and the USS Nimitz. The final two years of her enlistment were spent on Guam and her squadron frequently deployed to Japan and the Middle East.

She learned everything she knows about firearms and tactics from her police officer husband, who is a weapons expert, range master, and firearms instructor for one of the most highly-respected law-enforcement agencies in the world. She has three boys who contribute daily to her growing number of gray hairs. Her two oldest sons are United States Marines and the youngest vows to follow suit. She spends her off-time (kidding...WHAT off-time?) reading, taking pictures, and sending lead down range (that's shooting, for those who are unfamiliar). One of her favorite scents is the smell of gunpowder in the morning....
