My Review

I used to read Harlequin Intrigue books for several years. This is a good line of books to check out if you are into mystery/suspense or romantic suspense stories. This line of books does produce some good storylines with a mix of action, romance, male and female leads that guarantee to be quick reads. It has been a long time also since I have read anything by author, Catherine Anderson.

I liked this book. It had plenty of action that kept the storyline moving at a steady, face pace. Mac is the ultimate male hero lead. He is someone I instantly picture when I think of the hero...tall, dark, handsome, strong, quick thinker, great under pressure, and gets the job done. Mallory on the other hand I had a seesaw relationship with her. At times she was strong but other times she cracked under pressure. I thought for having such a authority male figure as a father that she would be cool under pressure. The chemistry between thee two was steady and built up but still hot.
