Masters and Mercenaries is Lexi Blake’s flagship series, running from The Dom Who Loved Me (2011) through 51 entries and counting. The series centers on McKay-Taggart Security, a Dallas-based firm staffed by former military and intelligence operatives. Each book features a different couple’s romance while advancing an overarching thriller plotline involving espionage, corporate conspiracies, and personal vendettas.
The series has spawned multiple sub-series including Topped (a foodie spinoff), The Forgotten (amnesia-themed suspense), Reloaded, and New Recruits, all set in the same universe. The sheer length of the series means new readers have a lot of material to work through, but Blake’s fans appreciate the deep character development that comes from spending so many books with the same cast. The titles frequently play on James Bond movie names, giving the series a fun spy-thriller flavor alongside the romance.
