Publisher Description
Anthony Dare, Secret Agent Extraordinaire, is going to save the world. Again.
Anthony Dare is suave and sophisticated, cool under pressure and hotter than most supervillains can handle. He never fails to walk away from a mission – even when his field partners fail to come home. However, Anthony's next mission against the evil supervillain Cicero includes an unwelcome addition – one not even Anthony is sure he can handle. The last thing Anthony needs is a brand-new, untested, rather attractive field partner.
Too bad his boss has another plan entirely…
Elliot Bichler, Analyst and Supervillain Expert, is going to save the world. Maybe.
Elliot Bichler never planned to go into the field; he's content to sit at his safe desk in his safe cubicle. But he's spent his entire career watching Anthony save the day without saving the intel Elliot and his fellow analysts need. Being assigned as Anthony's newest field partner might be dangerous – but Elliot isn't going to waste the chance to finally point Anthony in the right direction – or maybe secure that intel himself.
Just as long as he doesn't die in the process…
They'll save the world. But first, they'll need to save each other.
Secret Agent Analyst is a m/m novel that's more romantic comedy than spy thriller. It includes double agents, supervillains with terrible taste in design, and a very hungry Kraken.

FUN & DANGER
Anthony Dare is the super hero agent for DVM (Department of Villain Monitorization). He’s always welcomed back after an assignment as the hero, whether it goes well or not. He’s lost a few partners along the way, but it doesn’t matter to those in the organization. Even though Anthony appears pompous, deep down inside it bothers him. With the loss of Enrique, his last partner, it left him feeling with anger, disappointment and guilt. But Anthony continues to put on a facade.
Elliot Bichler is a top notch supervillain analyst and he’s fine with that. He has his own special way that he aids the agents. He reads and analyses their reports, talks with them face to face and he makes friends with them. Something Anthony has never taken advantage of.
Anthony has an arch nemesis Cicero, but the code of the DVM is “get him next time”, “detain, never eliminate”, “killing only makes us like them.” Cicero apparently has some wacky ideas on how to take over the world and he has Archibald O’Leary bank rolling him.
Bea is the head of DVM and when it comes to Cicero and now Archibald O’Leary she decides to send Anthony and Elliot on the assignment to Bulgaria. Well, that’s not going to work. Anthony and Elliot are already butting heads and surely don’t see eye to eye. This is just not Elliot’s type of gig!
As Anthony and Elliot, face all kinds of ridiculous danger: jumping from planes; rescuing several women; riding ATV’s in the desert; a kraken; sheep clones, and being chased by Cicero and his henchmen, something between them starts to develop.
For Anthony the assignment becomes more difficult as he has to carry out an order that he knows is wrong.
Penelope Peters brings a fun, fast, explosive, action packed, adventurous tale with “Secret Agent Analyst.” Elliot is smart as far as being an analyst, but he just doesn’t realize he can handle so much more. He also becomes someone Anthony can lean on.
The story does have a little serious side when Anthony thinks about his former partner and now his concerns for Elliot. He has some difficult situations to accept. Two other characters that make this tale fun are Daria Halloumi and scientist Zayna. Daria especially brings lot’s of excitement to the story.
I highly recommend “Secret Agent Analyst” for those that like comedy with super heroes and just a little seriousness. This is my first read by Penelope Peters and I think she created some great character for this fun read.
