Michael Boutilier is a young assassin working for a mysterious organization of mercenaries called the IMA; an organization so powerful that government denies its existence. When a hacker breaks into their computer's mainframe, they send Michael out to finish off the loose ends. But so far, there's just one lead to go on. The hacker's daughter, Christina Parker. Christina seems like any other high school senior. And she is — until she gets kidnapped by a group of people who think she's the key to the malicious code that has infected their mainframe system and she is plunged into a world where the lines between right and wrong are blurred beyond all recognition and terror knows no bounds. What do you do when the odds are against you, and the stake is your life? As she quickly learns, there are good guys and there are bad guys. Sometimes Michael's one, sometimes he's the other--but usually he's both. And right now he's the only one who can save her.

For those who enjoy reading endlessly about Rape.
By sgunn
This book... I can't even. There were so many times I just wanted to quit, but I had this crazy little idea in my head that it would get better. I'll not be making that mistake again.
The most important thing you should know about this little gem is that I don't think I've ever read a story where rape is mentioned more, or a character is nearly raped in such excess. Seriously, it made me throw s***. I'll break this down for you, seeing as I marked almost every occurrence. You may also need to get a friend because you will surely run out of fingers and toes if you're counting along at home!
Christina is kidnapped for leverage against her family by Michael, a mercenary for a secret organization of fellow mercenaries called the IMA. He has her for about a month or two and threatens to rape or considers raping her no less than 5 times.
Then in a game of politics, another rival mercenary steals her away from Michael and threatens to rape her about 3 or 4 times.
Michael comes to get her back because, gosh!, he maybe has feelings for her, and they both get held captive. He then intimidates her into thinking he might possibly rape her 2 more times to get her to follow his plans to keep them alive. While both are captive, aforementioned rival mercenary threatens her with rape twice as well, but see, the difference is he means it!
Up to this point, poor Christina has been appalled or terrified with these rape threats/attempts. However, upon their escape from a prison island, she strikes a deal with Michael that if he helps save her parents from the same prison, she will give him what he wants... her body. They free her parents and escape on a boat.
Whilst traveling the coast by said boat, Michael decides it's time for her to settle the deal, but Christina is appalled and refuses. That night, he gets in her bed, and although she doesn't want to because she is all confused about her feelings for Michael, she doesn't say no, and let's him take her virginity. She does cry during the whole thing and call him a monster afterwards, though.
They get to his apartment in Seattle, and there is a lot of do I/don't I have feelings for him/her, as well as a few more shady scenarios of him almost forcing himself on her because he just can't resist her. But see, he LOVES HER now. (At this point I'm banging my head against a wall repeatedly)
But, surprise! The rival mercenary has taken over the IMA and takes Christina, making Michael come get his one true love. While waiting for Micheal to arrive, rival mercenary threatens to rape her a handful of times, and cuts her clothes/her and is on top of her bleeding body when Michael arrives. Oh the horror Micheal feels not knowing if the rival mercenary raped his Christina!!!
Rival mercenary lets them both go under the condition that Michael works for him now. Michael cleans her wounds and then leaves in the morning. The one person he trusts in the whole world shows up to give Christina Micheal's goodbye letter (two sentences) and takes her to find her parents. Christina maybe-possibly loves Micheal back now. THE END!

worth the price and then some
By Amazon Customer
Ok I sat on this review for a few days because I have a tendency to look back a few days later and think gosh that book wasn't as great as I thought or on rare occasions better than I originally thought. Cloak and Dagger is turning out to be one of those rare occasions where I'm like "man I really loved that book" though I think I got my star rating correct first go. I just finished another book that I didn't particularly like and all I could think was gosh I miss Michael, maybe not the sanest feeling, but I mean seriously come on he's so freaking hott he could kidnap me any day. I hate sappy books so it was refreshing to read this after reading so many other bad books. I love that the author doesn't try to portray him as anything other than himself and that she didn't cut his (well you know) off and give them to Christina. Speaking of Christina, I did find her a bit annoying towards the end I mean come on you know you're in love with the guy just like we do so get over yourself but hey I still enjoyed her as a character. Overall good job Ms. Campbell on giving me the breath of fresh air I so desperately needed

Definitely NOT for everyone
By Veronica Lynn Pit Bull
C&D is a romantic thriller that is definitely NOT for everyone. If you like traditional sweet romances or heroes that deep down are basically good, moral, decent upstanding men...then look elsewhere. If however you enjoy dark, morally ambiguous heroes who have done some genuinely bad things but have enough of a soul or shred of conscience left that they are capable of redemption...then you just hit the Mother lode.
These are the type of stories that I enjoy the most and it is very hard to find the "real thing". In my quest I have been the victim of many a "bait and switch" scam where the hero turns out to have been wrongfully imprisoned, or actually NOT guilty of the bad reputation or working for some sort of government sanctioned agency for the good of national security which actually makes him the GOOD guy.
Not C&D. This is the real deal...FINALLY!!! The hero Michael, was recruited as a teenager from a gang and works for the IMA, which is described as "a group of mercenaries trained like soldiers with the moral code of assassins". Michael tortures people for information and then kills them and comes back covered in blood that isn't his own and the author shows this. The author also shows us that he has a shred of conscience left by contrasting his methods to those of his counterpart. Michael prefers to use "scare tactics and mild physical assault" he notes he tends to get "better results with the threat of torture rather than the actual act itself". Unlike his comrade Callaghan who has elevated torture and rape to an art form that brings him supreme satisfaction sexual and otherwise and leaves his captives so broken that they will tell him anything he wants to hear just to get him to stop.
C&D is the story of the beginning of Michael's redemption when he falls in love with his hostage and for the first time in his life experiences the desire to put someone else's life above his own. As a love story it is very realistically done, which means it is extremely slow to develop and by the end of the book Christina isn't at all sure about what she feels for him other than to know that she doesn't entirely still hate him. She has seen his vulnerability, she has seen the shred of conscience inside him spark, she is beginning to believe that he really does love her and she is beginning to have feelings for him - which are so hard for her to reconcile given that he has so many times done such very bad things, and given that some of those very bad things have been done to her.
I thought C&D was a thoroughly enjoyable story with very realistic relationship development. If there was not another installment I would have marked it down a star for cheating me of a HEA but I cannot wait to start Armed & Dangerous and I am over the moon to know that a 3rd installment is also promised. To the author...trilogies are overdone. You need to keep going!
