So impressed with Eileen Wilks' exciting contribution to the Mantalk series. Not many series authors would be able to handle first person pov with such finesse. Loved the way she sank right into the skin of the hero. I've always been blown away by her talent!

I like the male point of view aspect, but the first person thing didn't work at all. The dialogue and thoughts were not very 'male point of view" so I hope they don't do the others in this limited series this way. Leanne Bank's book (the first one, I think) was much, much more satisfying to read.

I really loved this book. The characters were well developed. The story kept me interested all the way through, and I like the idea of a book from the hero's perspective. And what a hero!

MEETING AT MIDNIGHT is an exceptionally unusual story for a category line, and perhaps not what readers are expecting. But I found it powerful, compelling and very-well written . . . a book I couldn't put down! Kudos to Eileen for taking the risk of writing in first-person for this new ManTalk venture, and for pulling it off in such excellent style!

I loved this book from the first page to the last. Wilks has an awesome talent for creating characters you can see, hear, KNOW as if they've walked out of the book. It's not your usual Silhouette Desire, since it's told in first-person by the hero and there's a touch of paranormal, but if you're looking for a beautifully written book that's not traditional but is an engrossing read, then this is well worth your time.
