When State Department attorney Vivian Steele witnesses two ambassadors collapse as if poisoned at a diplomatic dinner in Washington, DC, she is recruited to be a member of a joint FBI task force assigned to investigate. But she soon finds her by-the-book ways clashing with a special agent in the Diplomatic Security Service, Jacob Cruz. A former Navy SEAL and in charge of the event’s security, Jacob takes the attack personally and is driven to act quickly, even ahead of the rules and regulations.
As Viv starts to work her diplomatic sources, her past as a State Department lawyer comes back to haunt her, and secrets held tightly by the government thrust her into a web of danger. Afraid, Viv turns to the one man bent on protecting others. But can she accept Jacob’s reckless ways as exactly what she needs to stay alive and to discover the truth behind the attacks?

Summary
Book Title: Power Play by Rachel Dylan
Book Reviewer: Donna Feyen
Power Play by Rachel Dylan is the final instalment in the Capital series. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and was hoping Delaney would get her own book too 😊
This was Vivian’s story. She is an attorney for the state department. While at an event two diplomats die and she is asked to help with the task force since she was with one of them.
Jacob is a former SEAL and currently in charge of the security for the event. He is teamed with Viv to help investigate. They get off to a rocky start but I liked how Viv could hold her own with him. Great chemistry between them.
I thoroughly enjoyed the side story with Delaney and would love for her to have her own book/story.
