Kay Hooper (Author)

Book Description

Series: Loveswept | Publication Date: December 1, 1987

New York Times bestselling author Kay Hooper blends intrigue and romance in this classic tale of love lost and found—as an undercover agent recruits the woman he abandoned for a dangerous assignment.
 
Kyle Griffon has done more than flirt with danger over the past ten years; she’s embraced it with careless abandon. The rebel daughter of a powerful family, she’s walked on the wild side of everything from car racing to hang gliding—anything to fill the emptiness left by the man who loved and left her. Now Lucas Kendrick is back, needing Kyle’s help to catch an art thief. Is a woman game for adventure ready to trust the man who left her with so many unanswered questions? 

Lucas was an undercover cop working a college drug ring when he fell for the beautiful coed. It was a mistake to leave, but he would have hurt her more if he had stayed. Now she’s his best shot at getting close to a man trading illegal guns for stolen artwork. Danger and desire are a reckless mix—but this time Lucas is staying close to protect the woman he loves . . . no matter what.

I was very disappointed in this book. I resent buying a book that is a reprint without knowing that information upfront. If I wanted to pay $7.99 for a reprint that is one thing, but this was a waste of money. I thought I was getting a new Kay Hooper book. I think the fact that it is a reprint should be displayed prominently for the buyer. I will think twice before buying anymore books by this author though I have enjoyed her newer books very much. I tried to find out if it was a reprint but found nothing in the info but an October 2011 publication date and a published from the paperback comment. NOW I know that is code for it being a reprint. This is not a good business practice. It may get the quick sell, but I will be much less likely to spend my money again.

4.0 out of 5 stars fun romantic fluff, October 6, 2008

Lucas left Kyle 10 years ago, without a word as to why. Kyle tries to deal with the pain of her loss by performing crazy stunts (hang-glinding, sharp shooting, etc) While Lucas has spent the time building his career as an undercover agent for a government organization.

An assignment of Lucas' forces them back together.

Overall I enjoyed this book the characters were strong, even the supporting cast was enjoyable (and most likely all part of a grouping of Romance books--I couldn't tell for certain, as there was no mention within the book as to other books in a series).

A well done bit of romantic escapism.
