She’s got the best undercover crew. But will a sinister secret undo them?

Kate Ross has lost way too much in the last six months. With her mother’s death from breast cancer, an agent she handled killed on the job, and her career in jeopardy, the beleaguered CIA officer’s faith in God seems like another casualty. So she’s relieved to be offered a shot at redemption by managing an innovative team of “mom spies”… until they saddle her with a more experienced man as a babysitter.

Battling self-doubt and a loss of confidence in her espionage skills, Kate directs a smoothly successful first mission for the unit. But just as she opens up to her kind and encouraging supervisor, she suspects he’s withholding key information when the subject of their next assignment is his ex-wife. And the only solution to her predicament may be prayers she has no expectation will be answered.

Can Kate find the guiding light to solve the case before her personal crisis threatens national security?

The Perfect Spy is the thrilling first book in the An Untapped Source romantic suspense series. If you like undeniable chemistry, page-turning tension, and Christian values in action, then you’ll love Amy Martinsen’s fast-paced novel.

I've now completed the series. I was so happy to read an exciting story (x3) that was engaging and real. I love spy novels and I'm grateful to have read something that was worth my time--a good story line, well crafted characters, intensely engaging plot line, and most of all I didn't feel insulted by an onslaught of material that is so often found in this genre. The fact that this author did not depend on sensationalism and shocking language and scenes makes the stories more interesting, and shows the authors' true writing ability...

This was a different story. I loved the idea of using moms with various talents and skills to do spy craft. The story moved along at a good pace and kept me turning pages. I will definitely be reading the next in the series.

The title picture made me think this book would be a bit tense for me but it wasn't. I like the idea behind the new CIA team- U-Tap; made total sense. The story was simple, with fun likable characters, and a romance. I look forward to enjoying the second in the series.

Well the premise of turning moms into spies vs spies who become moms is a unique premise, but we're certainly a legitimate undercover resource! Each of the characters are lovable in their own rights, and easy to relate to. They're the kind of people you wish were your friends in real life. Kate's thoughts, thoughtfulness, her perceptions were well-developed. And who wouldn't swoon over John and his kissing Kate with his eyes? 🥰 It was fascinating with spy tech and procedures, tense at times, funny, sweet, romantic and Spirit-led wit being over the top. Everything was well-balanced and satisfying. I find myself rooting for the other ladies and hoping that there is a second chance at love for them. The only thing I would change is the cover. It doesn't reflect Kate or the team at all and is borderline creepy in a misdirected seductive manner. The person might resemble Kate's coloring, but nothing else. At. All. Not her character, her job, her personality. It was such a turn-off I almost didn't read the book, but you know that true saying of books and their covers...😉 I look forward to the next installment as well as meeting the secret obit writer. Blessings in your endeavors, Amy!

The Perfect Spy is perfect! I like this author’s straightforward writing style. The main characters are well-developed and likable and the villains are despicable. The plot is fast-paced and compelling. The romance is sweet and clean. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and had to go straight to the next book in the series. I’m hooked!

Super fun, fast and and intense CIA operation run by middle aged mommas. The romance was clean, the action fast, with the shocking twist that turns your stomach. Written in first person present tense, the feel was Sam Spade but quickly evolved to the author’s contemporary voice, putting the reader into the story. Can’t wait to read the rest of the stories in the series!

I must admit, I love good spy stories, especially with gifted, focused characters. These are outstanding. I like that the story is not 'over the top', so it is more believable. An enjoyable read.
