Editorial Reviews...From Booklist

When Eli Conner's wanna-be photojournalist brother, Jeremy, is kidnapped by Central American guerillas, Eli seeks a mercenary who can go into the treacherous jungles and rescue his younger sibling. Ray Vereker answers the call. Ray is tough, courageous, muscular, and female. After watching her win a bar fight, Eli agrees to let Ray save Jeremy--providing he comes along, but the rescue is infinitely easier for Ray than the aftermath of her adventure. A night of wild passion with Eli in the jungle has left her pregnant. An alpha woman with no domestic or maternal skills, a wealthy businessman with a mysterious background, and a most unappreciative rescued hostage give this book a distinctive flavor. In fact, Foster has created a dazzingly unique heroine, and readers will cheer as Ray fearlessly saves herself--and everyone else--from dangerous situations. Known for her funny, sexy writing, Foster doesn't hesitate to turn up the heat, and readers who like sensual romances and novels by Thea Devine, Vicki Lewis Thompson, and Susan Johnson will go for this winning mix of feminism and erotica.

Arrived today! This looks fast and fun -- I'm gonna jump right in. :) Thanks for doing this mini-ring, noumena!

On a side note, there's a little stamp inside the front cover from Annie's Book Stop, Wells, Maine. I think I've been by there!

I agree with noumena -- very steamy, and I never felt like putting it down either! Underneath it all this is your basic romance novel, kicked up a few notches (Ray is probably the one doing the kicking, as hard and as well aimed as she can) by a good writer, some seriously no nonsense main characters, and a lot of fun action. Definitely a good-time read, and I really enjoyed it!

This will be heading out to Tanya04 this week....

Quite an interesting read, one that is a typical theme in these books. It was spiced up a bit by the woman mercenary and enjoyable to read. Thank you!
