About this listen
Former MI6 operative Max Grant has created a new life in Chicago, heading up the cybersecurity arm of a global security company. He is also building a relationship with author Cress Taylor, the woman he has dreamed about for 20 years. But Max’s past is about to catch up with them both.
Ten years ago, Max was caught in ambush in an Istanbul alley, where most of his team died. Max’s testimony helped put the terrorist mastermind in prison. Now he’s escaped and word in the intelligence community is that he is targeting Max.
A planned trip to Europe turns deadly as Max is drawn inexorably toward an inevitable confrontation. He has to stop Faez, before he eliminates them—permanently.
Sharon Michalove is the author of At First Sight, the story of how Max and Cress reconnected 20 years after their first encounter at Oxford University. A standalone continuation of Max and Cress’ story, At the Crossroads is the second romantic suspense novel in the Global Security Unlimited series.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

I’d lost everything after my parents passed away, but Hades was there, pen in hand, for me to sign my life away to him. I could have refused, but then I’d be without a home. Without a support system, I’d be penniless. So I said yes. Hades was my guardian. I was his ward. He was cruel. I was too innocent. The longer I was in his care, and the more I saw how cruel and cold he could be, the more I wanted him.

I've been dreading this for a year. Okay, that's a lie. I've been dreading this reunion since we graduated high school 10 years ago. So why am I here, standing outside the door like the eternal wallflower I am? I'd say it's because my younger sister browbeat me into it, but the truth is, I'm tired of being a nobody. Of never taking a risk with myself and my life. And...well...maybe I'm also hoping to see him. The tall, insanely gorgeous man walking my way now. Oliver Fritz is regarded as one of Boston's sexiest doctors. I know him as the former god of our school.

Suspense, romance, and all the accents!
At the Crossroads by Sharon D. Michalove was a suspenseful, intriguing story with a touch of romance. In book 2 of Michalove's Global Security Unlimited series, we get even more of Cress and Max's whirlwind romance. Max plans to visit his family in Europe and keep Cress safely in Chicago due to terrorist threats. Cress will have none of it and accompanies Max on his European adventure filled with various twists and dangerous turns.
Emma Wilder and Jason Clarke narrate this audiobook, and both really showcase how talented they are! Both take on quite a few accents, and their ability to flow from character to character was flawless!
Overall, I enjoyed this book, and look forward to more from Sharon Michalove.

Cress and Max are back
I loved the first book in the Global Security Unlimited Series, so was thrilled when this second book came to audio. The opening scene gripped me – although it took a moment to orient myself. But soon I was immersed back into Cress and Max’s world.
Theirs’s is a cute love story. She ran into him with a bicycle at Oxford years ago and they never quite forgot each other. Then they encounter each other in Chicago as mature adults and things sort of fall into place. In the first book, anyway. In this book, they are more of an established couple – although Cress still has moments of doubt. But this time their adventures take them away from Chicago and off to the wilds of Scotland as well as London and Paris.
I love the immersive details of the writing of these books. I felt those shops in London or the landscape of Scotland. Every little thing just brings me into the story and makes it real. Anyway, danger stalks Cress and Max at every turn, but they are determined to live their lives. And that decision might, in the end, cost them everything.
This nail-biting romantic suspense book was well-written and brilliantly narrated by Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder. I can’t wait for more books in the series! Highly recommend.

Love, danger and eclairs all over Europe
So glad Cress and Max are back, after book 1 was so so invested in their story and book 2 is even better. This time Max’s past is back to haunt him. There is so much love and passion between this couple, and the elements of angst and suspense just make this the perfect romantic thriller. Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder are the perfect duo, their voices complement the characters and each other perfectly. Sharon Michalove has built a world so immersive i could not put this down !

A Captivating & Action Packed Story Amazing 🎧📚🎧
Sharon Michalove pens another amazing romantic suspense, the second book of her “Global Security Unlimited” series, a continuation of Cress and Max’s story, which started in “At First Sight”, a not to be missed story and should be read or listened to before this book. Cress and Max are a fairly new couple and they have settled in nicely together, though she is not sure how accepting his family is of her, he tells her they are fond of her but she is not sure. They are living in Chicago now, Cress continues to write and is throwing around ideas of what to write, and Max is heading the Chicago office of Global Security Unlimited. When Max’s past comes back to haunt him with threats, he is worried not only for himself, but for Cress and his family, too. And then there is a cyber attack on Global Security, coincidence or all one of the same. None of that stops his travel plans with his family to the UK and it did not stop the threats either. This captivating and wonderfully written story is cleverly plotted with the perfect balance of drama, angst, action, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions, and romance. Sharon Michalove, thank you for another great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Emma Wilder and Jason Clarke’s outstanding performance continues as they bring these characters and story to life. Jason Clarke’s Max is as swoon worthy as ever, accent and all, and plays the perfect bad@ss and hero who is not afraid to show his softer and caring side. Emma Wilder’s Cress is perfection, grasping all sides of her personality. These two make a great team and their voices complement each other. They continue to set the perfect tone for the story, capture all the character’s emotions and project them into their performance and have you feeling every single one. Thank you for another outstanding listen.
