Must Read by Book Addict - 5 Stars
"Always searching for a new, grab you by the collar and drag you along for the ride series, I was not disappointed when I stumbled across Countermeasure...I had to walk away several times because the characters are so well written you become emotionally involved with them. They kept me guessing up until the end and then left us hanging in anticipation for the second book in this series."

Countermeasure: A Smart, Sexy Start to the Series by Jamey Rodgers - 5 Stars
"The first book in the highly-anticipated Countermeasure series does not disappoint...The dialogue is intelligent and witty, the action is authentic and well-paced, and the romance is hot...Countermeasure leaves the reader deeply satisfied, but also hungry for the next adventure."

Countermeasure Rocks the 5-star category by Mrs. Condit Reads - 5 Stars
"I laughed at the funny repartee among the characters. I cried at their losses. I cringed when they witnessed gruesome horrors. I cowered when they were chased by truly awful bad guys. And I was aroused when they made love. Mr. Almeida and Ms. Aubrey had me from the first paragraph. I could not put this book down, reading non-stop at home, on the treadmill at the gym, and staying up all hours to see how things turned out... The authors are very adept at description and dialog, bringing the reader into the story powerfully... I can hardly wait for FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, book 2 in the COUNTERMEASURES series, promised at the end of book 1. Bring it on, Mr. Almeida and Ms. Aubrey! Just... bring it."

Micki's Bounce on Books - 5 bounces
"What a better way to come back after the holidays than to review a really awesome book. A story of betrayal, survival and love with the luck of the Irish. This story is engaging and the characters are as approachable as your best friends."

Just Erotic Romance Reviews - 4 stars
"... The elements of danger and murderous intent, combined with a slow and methodically developing romance come together to make Countermeasure a must-read novel for romance fans who love a fast-paced thriller...the authors still did a fabulous job of making the sensually slow and highly romantic relationship between Cassandra and Trevor develop naturally...captivated me with their fast-paced and highly explosive scenarios the characters went through while attempting to retrieve the formula. I highly recommend Countermeasure for any fan of a fast paced erotic romance. I know I'm looking forward to checking out the duo's next collaboration!"
