As a fan of Lora Leigh I must get this out there: Lora, did your fashion sense end in 1990's? Why are young women and men dressed like they did when the stars of 90210 were still young? Why must we have a young woman hanging out at a bar wearing black leather pants (in the summer) and a sleeveless button-up shirt? The visual I get on that is NOT PRETTY. Later she's wearing a silk camisole and matching shorts - you mean camisole and tap pants? Something that hasn't been sold in stores since 1992? And while I'm complaining, why does everyone talk alike and use words like pussy, cunt, cock, and fuck in every sentence? People don't really talk like that. Maybe some folks use dirty talk in the bedroom, but not EVERYONE - but if you read LL's books, you'd think we all do.

This story was too long with little happening. Lots of repetition of dialogue and inner dialogue. Yes we get that Jordan wants her but won't accept that he loves her. Yes we get that she's been running her whole life. We get it, we get it already! The story could have been told in 100 pages.

That said, LL does hold up her end of the bargain with plenty of steamy hot scenes.

It's worth the read if you've been through the whole Elite Ops series, you'll want resolution to Live Wire and Tehya. If this is your first LL book, skip it.
