Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
Subject: Gideon Faulkner, aka Achilles
Family History: Raised by 'Aunt' Agnes and 'Uncle' Oliver, 'family' and 'extraordinary' were separate worlds to him.
Deepest Secret: After years of obeying orders, he's about to break out of his 'prison' once and for all . . .
Raised in virtual isolation, computer whiz Gideon Faulkner had been conditioned by MEDUSA to perpetrate crimes, including the infamous World Bank heist. When his brainwashing began to break down, Gideon rebelled against his captors and ventured into the outside world. The shy genius had a lot of living to do, and Brooke Carter was the perfect guide. The sassy, hardworking waitress was swept off her feet by the sweet and handsome mystery man. But the closer Brooke and Gideon grew, the more he feared her life was in danger. Could Gideon keep Brooke safe from harm until his extraordinary family came to reclaim him?

Rated by buyers -
I've read 10 out of 12 of the Family Secrets/Extraordinary 5 series. All are well written and the stories mesh remarkably successfully, considering that each is by a different author. You definitely have to suspend disbelief about the overall plot of the series, but the relationships are well realized and you'll care about the characters. All the romances sizzle.
This one is my new favorite; the action/drama was nonstop, Gideon and Brooke both very appealing, and the progression of the overall story of the series was very satisfying.
