A Great Beginning To A New Series!!!, October 23, 2004
So seldom do I start a series from the very fist story so when I found out Ms. Kent had a new book out, and it was the first of several stories to come, needless to say I raced out and ordered it. You can always be guaranteed a good read when you pick up Ms. Kent and this story was no exception.
Without going into a long drawn out synopsis (this could give some things away the reader would probably rather I didn't) suffice to say that this is a very fast-paced, emotional read that will have you glued to the pages until the final chapter.
Well, what's so great you ask? This book offers it all, a great storyline, a hero that is not only damaged, but willing to have his heart healed by a truly remarkable heroine (in this case Natasha) and it offers enough teasers of upcoming characters that you will be hooked and out pre-ordering the rest in the series. Chemistry between Christian and Natasha is great, and there is enough push and pull between the two to keep the reader satisfied that yes, they will get their happy ending, but it won't come easy.
I greatly look forward to the next in the series which will be "The Shaughnessey Accord" and hope that Christian and Natasha will be around for that one. It was hard to see this story come to an end, and I plan on finding room on my keeper shelf.

ALIAS this book is not, however...., April 4, 2005
I bought this book because the premise reminded me of something I would see on an episode of Alias, one of my favorite television shows. What I did not realize, being that I am not familiar with any of Kent's previous works, was that while Alison Kent is trying to do something different here by writing a novel about spies, she is first and foremost a romance writer. I am not a huge fan of such graphic romances (it is just not my taste) however, despite that I did enjoy the story of sexy spy Christian Bane and the strong willed Natasha Gaudet. The beginning of the book was pure romance so it took me a while to get into it but once it got going I found it hard to put down. This is definitely the beginning of a very interesting series, 3 ½ Stars!

An "Affair" worth having!, October 7, 2004
I am an avid reader, and love all of Alison Kent's books, and "The Bane Affair" did not disappoint.
From the minute I picked the book up, I was drawn into Christian and Natasha's story. The action is non-stop, the sex is steamy, and the story line is well thought out and flows seamlessly. Posing as Peter Deacon, Christian is sent to get information on Spectra IT's newest illegal activity. It is here where he meets the unexpectedly beautiful and honest Natasha. From the moment these two meet, sparks fly off the page.
This is one book that I highly recommend that you purchase and add to the keeper collection. Be sure to keep room for the rest of the guys from SG-5...You won't be disappointed!
