5.0 out of 5 stars Sequel to The Perfect Target - Very highly recommended, March 16, 2004

Two years have passed since passion exploded and seven hours of lovemaking ended with feelings of betrayal between Elizabeth Carrington and Wesley "Hawk" Monroe. One mistake had unraveled Elizabeth's well thought out plans for her life. Now her father insists that the bodyguard come back to protect her again when an international criminal threatens revenge on the Carringtons. But when Wesley attempts to move Elizabeth to a safe place, their plane crashes.

Once Wesley had believed that a woman of refinement like Elizabeth could love a man like him. He believed that the cool façade concealed a fabulously passionate woman. Now it does not matter. He attends to do his job and walk away with his heart and his self-esteem intact. Once Elizabeth had tried to strip away Wesley's roughness and crudeness to find the man inside. What she found had rocked the foundations of her world. Soon Wesley and Elizabeth will discover that neither of them can just walk away again.

Author Jenna Mills pens an exhilarating ending in CROSSFIRE that readers will find difficult to put down. From the gripping beginning to the last mind-blowing page, Mills creates an intriguing world of danger. The excellent plotting keeps tension high and sensuality burning as Wesley and Elizabeth struggle with the possibilities of second chances and extreme danger. While following the familiar device of opposites attracting, Wesley and Elizabeth are strong, appealing characters. Wesley is coarse and brash, thriving on adrenaline and risk, living outside the lines. Elizabeth is a rule follower, a maker of plans and a woman who meets her family's expectations. Together they become something far more than what they are apart. As a result, they are incredibly memorable. Daring, unexpected and sexy, CROSSFIRE comes very highly recommended.

Jenna Mills has done it again with her latest masterpiece CROSSFIRE. This time she explores the life of Elizabeth "Ellie" Carrington and her sexy bodyguard Hawk Monroe. She brings these characters to life with such passion and intensity that it's impossible to put the book down. I finished it in only one day because I just couldn't stop reading. She ends the book with a surprising twist that is so dynamic and exciting it leaves you wanting more. I can't wait for her next installment. She is such a fabulous writer with incredible talent!! Don't miss this terrific read. You won't be sorry.
