If ever a man like Lucas were to exist.....whew! THIS is what we romance readers crave. A cutthroat story about betrayal to its core. The heroine's singlemindedness (as well as the hero's) to her goal is relentless. That he is the same and on a path to thwart her is thrilling throughout. A human interest amidst the contract killing world of the CIA with operatives gone rogue. That patience, a belief in humanity, and what is right prevail is a testament to writing legend. A story like this is rare, even with the mind of a writer like Howard. This book is readworthy and the finale' unexpected and a believable testament to the fact that one wishes to find reads like this where ever they can. This story worth the purchase new and kept on a shelf for future re-read is a given.
