A fight he must win...

Piper Oliver knows she can't trust him. They warned her that the tall, dark, and sexy black-ops soldier Jory Dean would try to win her over with his steel-gray eyes and deadly charm, but she won't be conned by this man they call a traitor. All she has to do is figure out the science necessary to save his life, and she's done. Something isn't adding up, though, and she won't rest until she uncovers the truth-even if it's buried in his deep, dangerous kiss.

A passion she can't resist...

Jory will do anything to reunite with and save his brothers-even kidnap the gorgeous woman who's working to deactivate the deadly chip in their spines. But the forces determined to destroy his family won't let them go so easily. Keeping Piper alive is more than he bargained for-and so is his burning desire for her. But with every second bringing him closer to certain death, can he afford to lose himself in her hot and willing embrace?
REVIEW
It’s with a heavy but happy heart that I bid farewell to the Sin Brothers series.  I read Forgotten Sins, Sweet Revenge and Blind Faith back-to-back just under 12 months ago and with each passing month my desperate need for Total Surrender has never waned.  And it was worth it as Rebecca Zanetti has triumphed; the Dean brothers' last hurrah is explosive, emotive and filled with action and moments that left my heart in my mouth.
"Jory doesn't get pissed - he gets even."

Jory Dean has spent two years in a coma at the clutches of the Commander and Dr. Madison whilst Shane, Matt and Nathan believe him dead.  With the kill-chip detonation date a week away, he needs to crack the deactivation code and save his brothers.  His helper comes in the form of Piper Oliver; a skilled hacker and intelligent lady who is torn between what she is being told by the Commander and Jory.  Naturally the attraction builds between them and feelings are thrown into the mix.
"I have three days to live and I'm not playing anymore."
In comparison to his brothers, Jory got the short end of the romantic stick. Don't get me wrong, he and Piper had a sizzling chemistry bringing everything from fight to fiery passion, but this ultimately was The End and there was the entire continuity plot to tie-up.  It was more than a romance; as the tension and anticipation built, I was held captive and with Matt, Nate, Shane and their ladies playing a huge part, I couldn’t have asked for much more; the reunion between the four of them was filled with so much emotion, I may have shed a little tear or two.
"Never alone."
This is a series that must be read as such.  It grabbed me from the very start, held on tight throughout becoming a firm favourite and one I will read again. And whilst I say it's with a heavy but happy heart that I say goodbye, there is part of me that would like to think that there will be more.  Rebecca Zanetti has, in my opinion, left the door just wide enough open for more, and as much as I would have loved an epilogue set in the future, in not doing so it gives me hope that this isn’t the last we've seen of the Dean Brothers.
