Book Blurb:
A doomed love affair. An unsolved murder. A mystery a thousand years in the making.
Tristan is a modern-day knight with one mission–protect James, former rugby player turned scholar, and Sophia, a brilliant cop who just so happens to be a princess.
What starts out as a simple investigation, soon turns steamy and forbidden as Tristan finds himself falling for Sophia…and James. When the clues reveal that their powerful secret society is under attack from a villain everyone assumed was long dead, they find themselves in a cat and mouse game with a killer.
Passion is put to the test when the killer sets his sights on the three of them. With the fate of the society hanging in the balance, the new lovers are in a race against time to unmask the enemy before he destroys the Masters’ Admiralty once and for all.

Review:
This is the first book in the Masters’ Admiralty series. To be honest, the first 4 chapters were slow to me and I had a hard time paying attention. Each chapter introduces the 3 main characters and in the 4th chapter is when they finally come together and the story finally starts to take off.
Because of the complexity of the story line and the relationships amongst all the different characters, I was a little lost sometimes on who was supposed to do what. Once Tristan, Sophia, and James finally leave for the island, that’s when the book really takes off.
I wasn’t interested in the triad as it was out of nowhere and the chemistry seemed a bit forced. What was interesting however, was trying to find out who the traitor/assassin was and how that would affect this society.
At some point I will probably read book 2, but not in a rush to do so.
Favorite Scene: Chapter 10
The Fleet Admiral’s home.
