Former INS agent Mykola Chernichenko comes from a family of braniacs, and though he is no slouch in the brains department himself, he'd rather be in the trenches where the action is than behind a desk analyzing. When a hit is put on two of his siblings, Myk cuts his vacation short to lend a hand and keep safe an egghead scientist, one Lana Erickson, who's working on a project that could make the world better place...unless her ideas fall into the wrong hands.
The wrong hands happen to belong to crime lord Annabel Vega, an old nemesis of Agent Chernichenko. Myk is determined not only to thwart Vega's plans to steal the beautiful scientist's project but to keep Lana safe at all costs.
Lana has come through hell and back because of her intelligence and what she can do in a lab. She is determined never to become a prisoner again. As one can imagine, she does not take kindly to Myk's high-handed methods of securing her and refuses to submit to his orders without a fight.
The more Myk is around Lana, the more he realizes that she is not just a genuis scientist but much more. She is a wounded soul who needs not only his protection but to put her trust in someone. He wants that someone to be him.
Great h/h chemistry, colorful characters and a fast-paced story make this an entertaining read. ”
“My grade for this one was a C+. Although I liked several aspects, the clunky aspects that can mar Monroe's writing occurred too often here. Not only that, she has a habit of borrowing her own material. While guitarists can successfully personalize a rif, a writer really can't. But the brilliant female scientist was a nice change of pace.”
