Identical twins but different men – she loves both!
In this electrifying romantic suspense set in the steamy streets of New Orleans, Lieutenant Commander Nik Baudin accidentally meets up with an identical twin he never knew existed. When his brother Max goes missing, Nik assumes his identity as Special Agent Maximilian. This gives him access to FBI files making it easier to arrest the gangsters who attacked his brother and to stop their trafficking of underage girls. Being that Nik has specialized commando training, he’s the perfect man for the job - that’s if his PTSD doesn’t kick in and leave him cowering in a corner.

Special Agent Maya Barnes can’t believe it when she spots her partner, Max Foster, wandering along the French market without a care in the world. Since he’d been beaten and had gone missing weeks earlier, they all believed him dead. There’s only one problem… though this man might look exactly like the missing agent, she knows differently. In all the years they’ve worked together, she’s never wanted to have mind-blowing sex with her partner before.

The Undercover FBI Series:

#1 Special Agent Francesca – This special agent flies her own plane, drives like a maniac & approaches a father who never knew she existed. Nothing scares her, except for one thing… MEN.

#4 Special Agent Kandice –Kandice wants to be tough like the others on her team. Being the chief hostage negotiator at a bank heist starts the process. Being stalked, kidnapped & beaten helps see it through. In the end, pulling the trigger comes easy…

#5 Special Agent Booker – Booker has multiple quirky dads & a vehicle restoration shop that keeps him away from his job as an FBI agent. When terrorists threaten his neighborhood, he’s back in the game.

#6 Special Agent Charli - Charli’s stressed to the max from a case that went down badly. So why does fate stick her with a teen who sees a murder & will only go into witness protection with her?

#7 Special Agent Rylee – Landlord to two stowaways – one being a tiny kitten – isn’t at all in their plans for the cruise. She needs to keep him alive & he just wants her in his bed.

#8 Special Agent Murphy – Murphy is the one cop women love to be near and men feel the need to compete against.

#9 Special Agent Sophia – Sophia goes to Greece & rescues the governor's twins, but can she save a young girl from dangerous traffickers?

#11 Special Agent Makayla – Makayla hears the cries of children & works for the SVU to search for missing kids. Dean needs her help when his niece disappears in the dead of night.

#12 Special Agent Storm - How can a woman see a baby growing in her tummy when she hasn't been with a man for - well forever! But ultra-sound machines don't lie - right?

Editorial Reviews

Review

Reviews for Special Agent Maximilian:

"I really liked the book dedication; it was sweet and added a nice touch to intro the story. Loved Maya. Loved Nik.
Maya was such an interesting person and the skills that she learned from her step-daddies was so much fun. Those skills showed up in some interesting times and ways. As you can tell, this story was action packed and came through as promised. Action packed with a romance developing as well as a family becoming reacquainted as well. I'm really trying not to say too much because I don't want to spoil it for the readers to come.

What a life both Max and Nik had lived through in their earlier days. And Nellie, the mother? She had suffered so much too. She had quite the unusual reaction to extreme stress and shocks.
Another interesting person in the book was Julian or Juli as he was often called. He just always seemed to pop up unexpectedly and had such a flamboyant personality. As I was reading, I was also busy trying to figure out how he figured into the story. I didn't get it right in my imaginings so that was a nice twist right there. It's not the only twist in the story either."

"Ms Barbour knows how to pull you in to her stories.
I had a hard time putting the book down. The book ended and I reread it. I have reread books but not usually the next day. I enjoyed both readings very much."
~Reviewed by Janine

"Mimi is a great storyteller infusing her book with humor, car chases and attempted murder sprinkled with a few sizzling sex scenes. A great read for a lazy summer day."
~Reviewed by Anne C. Schneider ""gardenia""

From the Author

Mimi Barbour - New York Times & USA Today Best-selling author started writing the Undercover FBI Series after she'd finished her popular 6-book collection, The Vegas Series. Not realizing how much fun it was to be in control of life and death matters, Mimi soon got a kick out of the power  she found writing romantic suspense and realized she had a knack for keeping readers turning the pages. She's never regretted her decision to publish these Suspense blockbusters. The reviews are positive and prove the readers love the characters, the compelling plots and the constant action.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of action but I wanted more character development
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2018

This story had a lot going for it. Identical twin brothers, who didn’t know each other existed, finding each other. A special forces commander with PTSD. An FBI agent beaten and ‘missing.’ Young girls being sold into prostitution. And, of course, a romance.

In fact, there was so much going on that we didn’t get to ‘go deeper’ on any one aspect of the story (for example, Nik’s PTSD). It gave me the feeling of being rushed through when I wanted to go deeper. And some things just didn’t make sense, even after the mystery was solved. Unfortunately, some editing issues also got in the way. I found myself confused several times (case in point: the end of one chapter, she is giddy with laughter, the next page, crying on Nik’s shoulder… two extremes with nothing happening in between).

I liked all the action, and the way the hero/heroine ‘took turns’ being the strong one (and how Nik’s PTSD would crop up) and eventually came together. I liked Maya’s kick-butt character. Had the author taken more time to develop the characters I would have enjoyed this story immensely. Wish I could give it a 3.5!

I just love this series! I really liked the concept of Nik impersonating his twin Max, and that he never knew of his brother until they were adults. Max is hiding out and asks Nik cover for him. Maya is great and finds that there is more to Max/Nik than she thought. This story is fast paced with action and suspense while tracking the missing girls that are targeted by human traffickers. I loved the steamy chemistry between Nik and Maya and the very satisfying ending to the book

This was an entertaining story that lightly dealt with a couple of serious topics, PTSD, human trafficking. I say lightly because the author didn’t provide much depth, perhaps intentionally, to keep the story somewhat low angst while at the same time balancing a touch of humor. It is a standalone book with an HEA.

This is an easy to read and unique love story with some delightful twists along with some nail-biting situations that kept me turning the pages to the final twist at the very end. The protagonists are identical twins, both gorgeous, but have quite different personalities which makes an interesting and fun story. I quite enjoyed it! Kudos, Mimi Barbour!
