Lindsay McKenna writes a fast moving and interesting story. Especially enjoy this family series.

The could have been good on its own. But since this is part of a series you expect to make a comparison. I have read all Morgan's Merceneries books. For some reason the stories of Morgan's legacy (his children) aren't that good. There was something missing in this book. If you buy this book don't expect too much from it. I am used to all the action Morgan's mercenaries brought. This one lacked that action. I hope her following books are better.

I rarely write reviews and I am an avid romance reader,but please do not buy this book unless you can mannage to ignore a choppy writing style and under characterization that managed to leave me feelig cold for the characters by chapter three. I highly respect writers of any genre, however I can not believe this book was published. I recommend checking out Shannon McKenna if you are interested in romantic suspense.

This book is not so bad.The action is a little interesting. However, the love sences is a little boring. I enjoy going through the mistery of this Book but at setting lenth it got boring to me. So if you buy this book,, you should expect a little excitment and a little sleepiness.

Marine combat engineer Major Pete Trayhern is placed in charge of the construction project in Afghanistan where he will work closely with civilian construction companies. He expects the work to prove difficult as the Taliban wants the Americans to fail. However, after his mom lectures him about finding the right woman, Pete leaves the States to begin his project.

He is stunned when he meets his civilian counterpart, head of the Roland Construction project in Afghanistan Calandra Roland as he never expected to see a female civilian in this dangerous third world nation. As each ignores their attraction, danger mounts from what Pete thinks is a traitorous source. When Cali is injured Pete no longer can avoid his feelings for her. He loves her and she reciprocates, but first they must finish the project and uncover who is behind the destruction of their construction work. When someone abducts her it looks like the dirty work of the Taliban.

Morgan's Mercenaries next generation (Pete is Morgan's son) is at its best when it depicts the struggles to build modern facilities in Afghanistan during a war in which the enemy will sabotage anything. Though the villain seems a stretch, readers will appreciate this fine romantic suspense in which headline news serves as the backdrop as the military-civilian complex tries to reconstruct the war-torn country under hostile conditions.
