Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

When flight surgeon Major Monica Hyatt's sister Sydney is kidnapped on an international aid mission to war-torn Rubistan, her estranged husband, USAF Major Jack "Cobra" Korba, finagles his way into the job of primary planner and lead pilot for the mission. Monica then demands that she be included in the mission as well. This is a joint forces rescue operation, and rife with conflict of interest. Navy SEAL Blake Gardner is Sydney's ex-lover, and Daniel "Crusty" Baker's father and stepmother were assassinated by the same man who took Sydney. Then Colonel Drew Cullen discovers that the Hyatts' half-sister, Yasmine, has infiltrated the camp in an attempt to gain asylum, and, despite his honorable attempts to keep her at arm's length, he finds himself attracted to her. Continuing her Wingmen Warriors military romance series in her first single-title issue, Mann deftly weaves the three sisters' stories together while providing a stark, edgy, and compelling look at the dangers faced by military personnel in conducting the war on terror.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Wingmen Keeper, April 13, 2004

This review is from: Anything, Anywhere, Anytime (Mass Market Paperback)

Anything Anywhere Anytime is a full length Wingmen Warrior novel by Catherine Mann.

Major Jack "Cobra" Korba is lead pilot on a rescue mission to save the life of three hostages. One of those hostages is his soon to be ex-wife's sister. Major Monica Hyatt, flight surgeon, is bound and determined to be on this rescue mission. She wants to be there for her sister Sydney.

Jack and Monica are forced to work together on this mission. Seeing each other under such stressful circumstances makes them realize that they cannot give up on what they have together.

There are tow secondary romances that are as compelling as Jack and Monica's story.

Sydney Hyatt was on a humanity mission, her ideals cost her the love of Navy Seal Blake Gardner. Blake is a part of the team to help rescue the hostages. Seeing what Sydney is willing to go through helps him to realize that both their jobs are important.

Yasmine Halibiz has grown up a spoiled young woman. When her parents die she is left to struggle on her own. She gets a job on the converted air force base. Yasmine was not expecting to see her half sister Monica nor to find the man of her dreams, Colonel Drew Cullen.

Anything Anywhere Anytime will touch your heart with its joy, sorrow and passion. Catherine Mann has written another keeper.

4.0 out of 5 stars Overpopulated and undeveloped romances, March 25, 2008

(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Anything, Anywhere, Anytime (Mass Market Paperback)

Air Force pilot Jack Korba leads a mission to rescue three humanitarian workers held hostage in war-torn Rubistan. His estranged bride Monica, a flight surgeon, is along for the ride as her sister Sydney is one of the captives. Monica comes face to face with her youngest sister Yasmine, the personification of their mother's greed to marry up when she left Monica's father. Yasmine is being used by her dictator uncle to infiltrate the US camp, but actually plans to defect with the help of sexy and much too old for her Colonel Drew Cullen. Will they be able to rescue the hostages before it's too late?

One of Mann's earlier Wingman Warriors novels, it's her first expanded full-length novel (most started as short Silhouette stories), and suffers from the same dilemma as her later stories - it's overpopulated, as she tosses in three romances that easily could have been their own stories and instead become short changed and underdeveloped. Despite the flaws, it is an engaging story filled with plenty of romance and action, and unfortunately, the clichéd requisite young virgin paired with a world weary older man that's been done far too many times.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, June 20, 2005

By 

avid reader "A reader" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Anything, Anywhere, Anytime (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was great. The one problem I had is that I did not care for Monica. I thought she was a woman with a huge chip on her shoulder that was causing her problems in the rest of her relationships. I actually was more interested in Yasmine and Drew's relationship. I thought they had a more interesting dynamic.
