Unforgiven (Deep Ops Book 5) Kindle Edition

by Rebecca Zanetti (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

Readers of Lisa Jackson and Lucinda Berry will be thrilled by this stunning tale of suspense from a New York Times bestselling author. Even the most exclusive universities can’t out a stalker in the latest in this USA Today bestselling series when a brilliant professor and an ex-Deep Ops agent will have to outwit an obsessive killer.
 
“Zanetti is a master.” —Kirkus Reviews

Run: Gemma Falls never expected to use her game theory expertise to outrun a killer. But for years, that skill is all that kept her one step ahead of a deadly stalker. When Gemma gets the chance to teach at D.C. University, she hopes she and her young daughter have found a safe harbor. The only flaw is the arrogant philosophy professor who’s always underfoot giving unwanted advice—in his sexy British accent . . .
 
Hide: Jethro Hanson has blood on his hands. He’s working within ivy-covered university halls now, but he knows that his work with the Deep Ops team and the deadly acts he once committed for the sake of Queen and country place him beyond forgiveness—until he meets Gemma . . .
 
Seek: Soon, the passion between them stuns them both. But when Jethro discovers a threat is fast overtaking her, he must choose between the redemption he seeks—and releasing the ever-present killer inside . . .
 
Praise for Driven

“Zanetti still makes time to dig into her characters’ psyches in the midst of the action, adding nuance to the exciting plot.”
—Publishers Weekly

“The story moves fast, and there’s an unexpected twist or two, as well as a
scene-and-booze-stealing German Shepherd that provides a little levity to this dark and satisfying romantic thriller.”

Unforgiven is my FAVORITE in the Deep Ops series! LOVE THIS BOOK!
Unforgiven is the 5th book in the Deep Ops series. It can be read as a standalone. However if you read them all you will enjoy it more as the reoccuring characters grow and are part of the story.Gemma is a single mom on the run and Jethro is a College Professor. Their lives end up intertwining and the suspense is throughout the entire book. I couldn't put it down. I finished this book in one day. I highly recommend the Deep Ops series. If you can't invest the time in the entire series now... read Unforgiven!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great addition to the series
Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2022

I have thoroughly enjoyed every one of Zanetti's Deep Op series, and this is certainly no exception. As always, Zanetti's characters are well-developed and very likeable. I was glad that Jethro finally had his story told. His relationship with Gemma, a woman running from an abusive ex-fiancé, progressed in a realistic manner, from distrust to friends to passionate sex partners and finally to true love. All this while the book is also filled with danger, action, and suspense.

Although this is a stand-alone novel, reading the previous books in the series adds to the enjoyment. I loved how all of the Deep Ops team came together to help Jethro and Gemma and Gemma's little girl, Trudy. I wish Mal and Pippa had been more a part of it, but with the team growing, I know it must be hard to include all the characters. Wolf, as always, adds the needed humor to the book. And it was adorable to see how little Trudy had wrapped all those men around her little finger.

Now that Jethro's friends Ian and Oliver have been introduced, I'm hoping stories will eventually be written about them too.

5.0 out of 5 stars the British Professor (ex M16 operative no less) and mysterious Gemma make an unlikely pair. But fate has other ideas.
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022

Book 5 of the DEEP OPS SERIES most certainly doesn’t disappoint. We get much more of Professor Jethro Hanson who we met in previous books in this series. He’s a mystery with his proper British accent working as a college professor but having a background as a secret operative for the British M16 operation. Then we meet Gemma and her adorable little girl Trudy. Gemma is on the run.

This book has two simultaneous threats: Gemma’s ex and something very dark from Jethro’s past. All of it makes for a page turner (as always with this series) and a nail biter of a conclusion. And when Gemma and Jethro finally let down their guard, watch out for fiery, steamy scenes!

All of the Deep Ops rag tag team are here, having Jethro’s back whether he likes it or not. Like always. These books, every one in the series, centers on these men and women who believe they are out in the world alone, until they discover each other and a bond, family-like team is formed. They fight evil, there’s lots of killing, lots of violence, relationships are made in the midst of it all, and in the end, a family is formed based on trust these misfits never thought they’d experience. I love all the characters, Roscoe the alcoholic dog, and KAT the stray kitten. Watching each of the loners discover they are not alone makes for an intense, satisfying read. I recommend every one of the 5 books.

I have thoroughly enjoyed every one of Zanetti's Deep Op series, and this is definitely no exception. The characters are well-developed and very likeable. I am happy to see that Jethro has his story. His relationship with Gemma, progressed in a realistic manner, Gemma and her daughter are running from an abusive ex. The story is full of adventure and humor. This can be read on its own, but the series is such a delight, I would recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent, female heroines are relatable
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2023

Rebecca Zanetti is capable of both high fantasy as evidenced in her Dark Protectors series as well as intensely human only driven series like this Black Ops series. Having read both, I truly cannot decide which version of her incredibly talented and creative brain I enjoy the most. The characters are NOT carbon copies of one another nor are they interchangeable with little difference from series to the next. As for this book in particular, Jethro works his way slowly into your heart as a side character when he first enters the fray and the band of brotherhood/sisterhood a couple of books back as a supporting character. By the time his book arrives (this one) you feel as if you already know him and are quietly rooting for him as he begins to expand in front of your very eyes. He is flawed in ways that are so intrinsically and deeply human that isn't relatable just to a man but to anyone. He's made mistakes. Committed atrocities for Queen and Country. This eats at him as he struggles to make peace with the war inside himself ever questioning is he evil because of these duties he was called to perform in service of Crown and Country. Does his presence in the lives of people around him --especially those innocent of such deeds stain them somehow... those like Gemma Falls and more importantly her toddler daughter, Trudy. This book will steal your heart but most especially Trudy. Watching her steal the hearts of and bring to heel the dangerous operatives of every three letter agency flavor and beyond is heartwarming to say the least. Especially as we watch her unknowingly hell Wolfe deal with his overwhelming fear that Dana may be carrying a girl and that he may be too rough for a girl and somehow be not gentle enough and a girl be too fragile to have him as a father.

5.0 out of 5 stars It’s all about family
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2023

Family is what you make it, not what you’re born in to. Gruesome murders for hire is at the center of this one for Jethro; domestic abuse is the center for Gemma on the run. These plot lines collide in a vicious way. It’s well written with fully developed characters except for Roscoe who doesn’t seem to have much of a part as a guard dog!

The whole Deep Ops series is great - the author does a good job of balancing a good thrilling story line with some good spicy time, and I really enjoyed them all. They are easy to get lost in and spend a good few hours reading.

Well Rebecca Zanetti has done it again! From the first word to the last I was drawn into this story and enjoyed it immensely.
It was also great to catch up with old friends and meet new ones… in fact it made it entertaining as well as setting things up for the future. This book is well written and fast moving with characters you will come to love if you don’t already. I thoroughly recommend this book and would advise you to read all the others in the series if you haven’t already.
