The Kelly Group International (KGI): A super-elite, top secret, family-run business.

Qualifications: High intelligence, rock-hard body, military background.

Mission: Hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering. Handling jobs the U.S. government can’t…

Over the years, Donovan Kelly has fought relentlessly for justice, women and children always holding a special place in his heart. Working side by side with his brothers, Donovan has witnessed firsthand the toll it’s taken—physically, mentally, and emotionally—on his loved ones, and the innocent lives caught in the crossfire. What he never expects is for his next mission to happen right on his home turf—or for it to take a very personal turn.

Picturesque Kentucky Lake is the perfect place for a soul in search of safe harbor. A beautiful stranger has arrived—desperate, breathless, and on the run from a dark past closing in on her and the younger siblings she has vowed to protect. Donovan must now draw on every resource at his disposal—if he wants to save a woman and the children who may prove to be his destiny.

Awesome. Awesome!!! I love the KGI series. Maya does not disappoint the reader of the series!! I will be reading again and again.

Awful. I have really enjoyed the KGI Series and looked forward to Donovan's story, but this was so contrived. Yuck. It felt like the author couldn't wait to get through it. I deleted the book halfway through.

Not one of Maya Bank's best. This is not one of Maya Bank's best. I have read most of her books and After the Storm was a great disappointment. I found the story unbelievable and so repetitive. This is not Ms. Banks usual caliber of work. Don't waste your money on this one. I would recommend any other book in the KGI series.

After the Storm. So sorry, Maya. This was really bad. It felt rushed with huge holes in the story line. Van deserved better. It just didn't make sense. Maya's editor should have set this back for a re-write. Just really bad. If this would have been my first KGI, it would have been my last. Sorry.

After The Storm. Maybe I was too excited to read Donovan's story, but I was disappointed in the monologue writing style. It was more a review of all the KGI stories, with preaching in between. And I usually love her writing style and this series. I think she's trying to push out too many stories even though I keep screaming for more...

Afte the storm. Good but not as good as the ones preceding it. 4 stars!

Save your money. I agree with the others...Van deserved so much more. I am so disappointed after waiting for his story. Ms. Bank's KGI series has officially jumped the shark. Her "women as perpetual victims" tendencies take over the story. The resulting story makes little sense. Perhaps Ms.Banks should focus on quality storytelling rather than quantity. Save your money; I plan on doing so until I read reviews that tell me she's back on track.

Disappointment here as well. I started the kgi series in feb and just finished with Donovan's story. I couldn't believe it was the same author. This definitely felt rushed and I cringed every time Donovan referred to the kids as his. All of the other kgi stories were amazinggggg. This was by far the weakest and not very good at all. I skimmed through most of the dialogue because I just couldn't bear. C'mon maya, take more time and deliver us the great kgi series stories we have come to love!

Very disappointed. Very disappointed with the way this book was written. This was the story I was most looking forward to. I will never read another KGI book again. Poor Donovan - he definitely deserved a better story!

I freaking love this series!!😍. Seriously. Every book is so darn good. Can’t put them down. Do yourself a favor and READ them!

After the storm. I really don’t think Banks wrote this one. It was disjointed and flowed very poorly. The Obsessive nature of the main character was odd in terms of his character development. The language in the books was strange and almost like English wasn’t the writer’s first language. All and all it wasn’t good.

Disappointment. Why?. Why are they a happy family after 3 days of knowing one another? Cringe. He cannot expect Eve to simply go along with Donavan's presumptuous intentions. The entire time I thought how unrealistic it all was. So, she's going to just let a man tell her siblings they're a family now without even discussing it with her first? & then her 15 year old brother offers alone time for them to have sex? Girl, please. I was so disappointed. Couldn't read past that scene. I was already pushing myself to that point.

Soo Disappointed. I felt like the Donovan was monologuing the entire story and I just wanted to tell him to please stop. Also irritating, I don't need everyone's stats and highlights to know how great they are. A little bit of info is enough. It got to the point where I felt like the story was a bad day time drama. Eve's story was great, initially. It pulled me in but then it just went down hill from there. Donovan deserved better...some thought, originality, and creativity. The whole thing felt rushed, even though I believe in "when you know, you know." This was just too cheesy and I love clichés. Even though I'm disappointed, this is not gonna stop me from buying and reading Swanny's story.

Not pleased!!:(. Smh I was really expecting more and to me eve story to was exaggerated. I'm sorry but after Tht I couldn't finish reading anymore. I was really expecting more for van. I get it he,s always wanted his own family but seriously does he always after tell us, to it seems this old book was rushed!!!:( I agree with the others I waited so long 4 this book n I can't find the rite frame of mind to finish it!!

Disappointing. I had a hard time even reading this book, much less finishing it. The relationship between Donovan, eve and the kids was completely unrealistic and just painful. Really a disappointment for this series

Beautiful. Such a beautiful love story; I couldn't put this book down. Donovan, Eve, Travis and Cammie one big family coming together thru tragedy to become one absolutely beautiful

Can't wait. I can't believe we have to wait until December for this book to come out. Glad to see Donavan getting involved with some one. GREAT SERIES I have all of the books I have read them more then once. Told all my friends and family to read the series

Disappointment. If this was the first KGI book I read, I would not have read the others. Donovan deserved better

Not great. I always really enjoy her boos and even preordered this one. Really disappointing. Very predictable and contrived and not the usual KGI action. Too bad it was Donavon's story. Believe it could have been so much better.

Ghosted?. There is no way the character Donovan in all the other books should have crowded the heroine as portrayed in this book. This woman has possible sexual, emotional, and mental a use & he is like a bull in a china shop with his aggression. I can not believe the same person crafted the previous material and loses the continuity of her hero.

This one was off a bit. I have been totally absorbed in this series. The plots are well thought out, the characters endearing. This one was off the mark. Van came across as totally skeevy coming onto Eve so strongly. I’m an abuse survivor and that may truly color my take on this but it disturbed me enough to provide feedback to the author. Eve was too traumatized to take on an alpha male so quickly to have any of the rest ring true.

Expected a little more. Story line was great, at times a tad unbelievable. None the less this wasn't a let down. After I finished the book the only thing I would have wanted was a little more passion between Van and Eve.

Didn't want to put it down. I've been waiting for Donovan's story and wasn't disappointed. It was more of an emotional story than a kickass story ... Which fit Donovan perfectly. Loved the heroine Eve and wanted to hug her and her siblings.

After the Storm.. It’s time for a boring Kelly wife. This was neck break speed love and it was too much too fast. The poor Kelly’s need a freaking break.

After The Storm: A Disservice to Donovan. I have just about all of Maya Banks books. She is an incredible writer. She is very talented. I've never given her less than 4 stars. I'm disappointed and bewildered about this one. I didn't make it through the second chapter of this book without stopping and questioning what happened to Maya on this one. This is not Maya Banks. Here her groove is gone. I stopped and spent some time wondering. Is Maya tired of writing about KGI? Is she helping an inspired author begin by letting someone else write this one while she checks on it ever so often with little to no care? Was she pushed by the publisher to produce something too soon? Is she taking medication and lost her desire to write? This is not just writer's block. This is just a meaningless run on of words that form sentences that become paragraphs to just get the book finished. Get it done. Turn in your work. Regurgitation. Redundancy of thought. None of Maya's twists and turns and suspense. Just on and on and on about the same thing over and over. A wailing that begins early about the same thing over and over. And it never stops. UNCLE!! Oh and the sensual sexy piece that's always so hot, emotional, passionate, intense and exciting? A terrible attempt. Forget it here. It's not here. This is not Maya. I'll never believe she wrote this. Buy the book if you want to just keep up with the Kelly family so that you'll know Donovan's story. It's boring and pathetic. Written for a reader with very low expectations.

Least favorite in the series. ...which was disappointing because Donovan was one of my favorite of the Kelly brothers. In this book, he’s comes off a little creepy, and there were no moments of levity that some of the other books had. I missed Donovan’s irreverence. Anyway, I ended up just skimming the last couple of chapters. I hope Swanny gets a better treatment in the next installment of the series.

Ms. I was expecting something special, like all the other KGI novels. It didn't happen. Very disappointed.

After the storm!. Another amazing KGI book. Loved it from start to finish. Love all of Maya Banks books. The only disappointing thing about this book was I now have to wait several months for the next KGI book oh well I will just have to read it again and again. Thank you Maya for the wonderful books.

I have enjoyed all the other books in this series but. I don’t love this book. Eve is trying to protect Travis and Cammie from their father’s lecherous hands and Donavan is rushing in to own them and control them. All my protective alerts are going off. Donavan would have been better off stepping back and allowing this little family advance on him with the trust and love they are developing. Sorry I couldn’t finish it. I was cringing.

After the storm. I can't wait for the next book in this series. They are great. I can't put them down.

After the storm. I couldn't wait to buy this book because of the other books I read in the series, which I thought were great! I wouldn't waste your money on this book. Actually I think the author should rewrite this book, I hope the next book in this series isn't as terrible as this one. This book fell short in character development, writing, suspense, and storyline. It lacked in every way a book should be great. I read the book to the end but it was only because I was already committed to reading it. This was a huge disappointment and its too bad you can't return it! I think there should have more attention to creation of the story and characters as opposed to "pumping" out another book in the series. It's like the author was bored or not interested.

Definitely a different book in the series. Overall, a good read. Sometimes a little too OTT.

Fast paced. Maya Banks invites you again into the KGI world. While not as full of around the world adventure as the other books in the series it is still a fast paced ride. A book with love at first sight, danger and heart it brings to the forefront what the series is truly about which is family. An enjoyable read and with a secret plot twist that makes you want the next book NOW!

After the Storm. Maya Banks writes about kickass men and women in her KGI series, but she is a kickass writer. I can't wait for the next one! Absolutely awesome books.
