Customer Reviews

more military fabulosity from Cindy!

I'm a hard core Cindy G fan... and this book did not disappoint. As I write this all other reviews of this book are 4 and 5 stars- I'm not surprised at all! The BOI's of the black ops series are rock stars of secret missions and falling hard in love! :) Love, action, bullets flying, international travel, kidnapping, a love story that had plenty of rough patches, a smart and cool heroine, troubled hottie hero... yeah. It kept my eyes reading fast as possible and I didn't put it down until I finished! What I really love about this series (besides everything I mention above) is that they tie together (characters popping in) but the adventures are distinctly separate and can be enjoyed as single title if desired.

Great read!

The first book I read by this author was Show No Mercy, and while I certainly enjoyed it, I cant say that I was sold on Gerard at that point. I can say after this book that I am definitely sold on her! And shockingly surprised at what a great book she wrote start to finish. Both main characters were likeable and well sussed out. But the best part was that so was there relationship. You could see why they liked eachother and how it wasnt only physical. She didnt overly drag out the conflict between them which I felt was the case in Show No Mercy, and that can get a little old fast! Both characters were ready and willing to admit there errors and move on which I liked a lot. I am looking forward to reading more books by Gerard and to the next in this series, whoever it is about.

Sexy!!

Wow!! Take charge, built men with a soft spot for the one woman in their life. Lots of action, both military like and bedroom like. The women are strong and opinionated but love their men!! If you like Lora Leigh's seal books, this one is right up your alley.

Another Winner!

So far I have yet to be disappointed with any of Cindy Gerard's books! They just seem to get better and better and this book is no exception. I won't go into detail about the story because other reviewers have, just giving my opinion. I loved Sam and Abbie and thought they were great together! This was a fast pased adventure from beginning til end and I couldn't put it down (read it in one day)! Cindy Gerard is a fantastic writer and definitely one of my favorites. I can't wait to read Crystal and Reed's book next and hope there are much more to come!!

Excellent romantic suspense

Sam Lang, ex-Delta Force sniper, is on a mission to find the man responsible for the death of his sister and her husband. When Cory Hughes's name repeatedly comes up as a mole for the deadly Frederick Nader, Sam goes after Cory's sister, Abbie, for information. Sam and Abbie hit it off immediately, making it that much more painful for Abbie to know that she has been used by Sam for information. Abbie claims to know nothing about Cory's involvement with Nader, but admits that she is extremely concerned for him. It doesn't take long for Sam to realize that Abbie is much stronger than she looks and when she insists on being part of the search for Cory in Honduras, the danger level rises significantly. Abbie should have known from the get-go that Sam Lang was too good to be true. Good looks, subtle charm and gentle hands - how could she resist? When she discovers that his interest in her was feigned in the search for her brother, she is crushed. That is, until she got mad. When she joins forces with Sam in the search for Cory, she's introduced to a way of life that she never even knew existed, and has no choice but to put her life in Sam's capable hands. The quality of romantic suspense by Cindy Gerard can be matched by few. Abbie and Sam are both damaged and so desperately in need of each other's love. The suspense is intense, as is the romance. Sam is out for vengeance, but doesn't let it blind him against how perfect a future with Abbie could be. I highly recommend this book to all who love the excitement and intrigue of well-written romantic suspense.
