Traitor. That’s what they call Ian Richards these days. Ever since he
abandoned the Navy SEALs to work for his biological father’s drug cartel, no
one knows what to make of Ian’s loyalties.
No one, that is, except Kira Porter. Between her intel as an undercover
agent for the Department of Homeland Security and her intuition as the woman
who loves Ian, she knows what side of the fence he is on, and come hell or
high water, she will be there to back him up. No one will stop her – not
even Ian himself.
With
her latest release in her Tempting SEALs saga, Lora Leigh
ramps up the action and suspense even higher than before! Fans of this
series will not want to miss Killer Secrets when it releases
March 4, 2008. This gripping story is packed with intrigue, drama, emotion,
and the kind of highly erotic love scenes fans of this author have come to
crave.
I really do not know how Lora Leigh does it. She could write a phone book
that would make the reader hot and bothered! Although many of her heroes
share some basic qualities (who doesn’t love a good Alpha male hero?), she
manages to create very individual characters, who are definitely their own
men. One could never confuse one of these men for the other, despite their
similarities.
Ian is just the kind of head-strong, hard-headed Alpha male that makes for a
great romantic hero. He has more issues than you can shake a stick at, but
that somehow only enhances his appeal. Then again, he has far more good
qualities than he does issues, so it balances out in the end… And the
issues he has? Well, they aren’t anything the love of a good woman can’t
see him through.
Kira Porter is nothing if not a good woman. Although an heiress with more
money in her account than most of us see in a lifetime, she works tirelessly
as an undercover agent in defense of her country – not because she needs to,
but because she wants to. How could Ian not love and admire a woman with
the kind of values he himself holds dear? Of course, that doesn’t stop him
from trying to keep Kira out of the action, for her own safety, he says.
Those Alpha males come with some pretty heavy duty protective genes, you
know.
Out of all of the Tempting SEALs novels, Killer Secrets
has to be my favorite yet. There is so much involved in this book – plot
twists, numerous intrigues, plans within plans. People are rarely who they
seem on the surface, and the situation is rarely under anyone’s control, but
in the end things wrap up for a great happy ending for Kira and Ian.
Even with our daring couple’s happy ending, we most definitely haven’t seen
the last of this riveting saga. Ms. Leigh keeps the plots spinning as she
continues the ongoing storyline that weaves throughout all of the books in
the Tempting SEALs series. I know that I am absolutely aching
with anticipation for the next one!
