Interior decorator Suzanne Barron's new tenant is the most dangerously sexy man she's ever met. Navy Commander John Huntington, a former SEAL (aka 'Midnight Man') works best under cover of darkness. Within hours of meeting him, Suzanne has wild, no-holds barred sex with John, then panics at the depth of her passionate response to such a powerful and dangerous warrior. Suzanne doesn't do sex like that. John is definitely someone she needs to avoid for her own peace of mind. But when killers come for her, Suzanne knows she can turn to only one man. John will guard and protect her body. But who will guard and protect her body against John?

Mind Blowingly Erotic- A Must Read Over and Over,
By
This review is from: Midnight Man (Midnight Series, Book 1) (Paperback)
When my pulse begins pounding only a few pages into a book I know I may have just started reading a winner. This gut instinct of mine doesn't kick in very frequently, and it's rarely wrong. I was so relieved to find that instict was one hundred percent on the mark this time. The entire book, from the first word till the very last, was steamy, excruciatingly arousing and wonderfully romantic. Ladies, if your man is at home when you read this one, give him an advanced warning.
Suzanne Barron is an interior designer who leases part of her building's office space to the enigmatic and somewhat scary John Huntingdon, former Navy SEAL and black opps extrodinaire. Nerves of steel eminate from the large overpowering man, both enticing the cautious Suzanne as well as frightening her like a deer caught in headlights. After dinner with him that same evening, a dinner she meant to be all business but was instead a blatant seduction, she has the most erotic sexual encounter of her life with John. It was wild, a little rough and definitely dirtier than the good girl is used to. Shocked and panicked at her passionate responses, she wants to avoid any such further confrontations with the bold and sexy man. Frustrated at his lack of finesse, John is nevertheless determined to have the little blonde beauty again...and again and again. He'll stop at nothing to posess her body. When Suzzane is attacked in her own home by lethal assassins, John has the perfect opportunity to stake his claim on her. Someone wants her dead, but who would want to murder a sweet, innocent person like Suzanne? John huntington is without a doubt one of the sexiest, if not the most sexy, heros I've ever encountered in romance or erotica books. His instant animal attraction to Suzanne has a direct affect on readers and one instantly recognizes and sympathizes with Suzanne's gut insticts for self preservation. Nothing can stop John from claiming her though and personally I thought Suzanne was one of the luckiest heroines I'd ever read about. Larger than life, brawny and so primordially male, John is the quintessential embodiment of the male erotica hero. He takes no prisoners in his pursuit of Suzanne and he takes no chances with her life, ensuring her survival against the deadliest odds. Oh my gosh, he's literally the stuff of fantasies. Suzanne was a great counterpart for him, an innocent, girl-next-door type that was more than able to hold up her end of their relationship. There is a real emotional connection between the two, a genuine caring for one another beneath their sexual attraction. Very nice and refreshing. My one complaint about the book - it's not nearly long enough. Despite that it's very much worth the price. Plot! It has a plot! An amazing thing actually. I've read plenty of erotica that didn't have one. I could have kicked myself for not ordering all of Rice's other books along with this one, but since I'm no fool I'll definitely be doing so as soon as possible. Rice's writing had me in its grip from start to finish and I do believe I have found a new favorite author to add to my keeper shelf. The next book in the series, "Midnight Run"is about Suzanne's best friend Claire and it looks to be just as spine tinglingly erotic as this one. A phenominal boook. Read and be astounded.

Emotionally intense, sexy and funny,
By
This review is from: Midnight Man (Midnight Series, Book 1) (Paperback)
I read this book on the recommendation of a friend, and I am extremely grateful to her. Wow! I was blown away. I haven't been this impressed with a writer since I first started reading Linda Howard. The hero is alpha+, totally focused on protecting (and seducing) the heroine. She is sophisticated and poised--but not with the hero. The primal emotional intensity had me gritting my teeth. The action had me gripping the book with white knuckles. If you love Suzanne Brockmann's heroic Navy SEALs, if you wait on edge for Linda Howard's newest book, you must try Lisa Marie Rice. You might (as I do) like her books even better.
For those of you familiar with Ellora's Cave, you will not be suprized by the very hot sex in this book. Ms. Rice does not try to push the heat up with kinky or bizarre sex. It is the emotional connection between the hero and heroine that make the love scenes so hot.

An Undiscovered Treasure,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Midnight Man (Midnight Series, Book 1) (Paperback)
The reason this book isn't on the best seller list must be because readers (of Romance) don't know about it. Briefly, the plot involves a security expert who leases office space from the owner/interior designer; they go to dinner. She has a problem; he solves it. The real strength in the book is the elegant writing. Themes are presented and woven into the fabric of the story and reappear later, unlike so many writers who introduce something and then drop it. The author, Lisa Marie Rice (a pseudo), has excellent word choices. At times, she presents both the hero and the heroine's point of view, and it makes for humor as well as a fuller understanding of each character. This book has humor, action, romance and a fast pace. Here's hoping more readers take a chance and read this lovely book.
