From the Author

Dear Reader,

We can't tell you how much we've enjoyed writing The Magnificent McCoy Men mini-series. All the McCoys feel like family and it's really tough letting them go. Especially Connor. As the eldest of the five McCoys and fill-in dad to his four rough and tumble brothers, his story touched us on the deepest level. So, it made sense for us to find Connor a very special woman.

In NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, U.S. Marshall Connor McCoy meets up with savvy junior U.S. Attorney Bronte O'Brien. Bronte is everything Connor's always avoided in a woman-she's strong, she's smart and she's very, very sexy. But when Connor finds himself framed for a crime he didn't commit, she's exactly the woman he needs-on his side and in his bed.

We hope you enjoy watching the last Magnificent McCoy bachelor fall. We'd love to know what you think. Write to us at: P.O. Box 12271, Toledo, OH 43612. And be sure to keep your eyes peeled for our first book in Harlequin's new Blaze series, YOU SEXY THING!, available in November 2001.

Here's wishing you love, romance and a happy ending,

Lori & Tony Karayianni aka Tori Carrington

5.0 out of 5 stars Be careful what you say -- Very highly recommended, July 13, 2001

This review is from: Never Say Never Again (The Magnificent Mccoy Men) (Harlequin Temptation) (Paperback)

As a teen, Bronte O'Brien preferred loosing herself in books to taming her wild hair and learning fashion sense. Of course, that made her wallflower at all the school dances, but with standing a head taller than all the other girls precluded dancing anyway. College brought self assurance and many admirers, although Bronte didn't entertain a serious relationship until she met a special fellow lawyer -- too bad he neglected to tell her that he's already married until after he put an engagement ring on her hand. So despite her wild attraction to Connor McCoy, Bronte has no intentions of falling in love.

Brother David's wedding leaves Connor McCoy feeling like time has passed him by. As the eldest of five brothers, he's the only one left single. But Connor never intends to share his heart and risk marriage -- especially with a bold, fiery redhead. She'd always been his secret fantasy, and a woman he refused to become involved with. He'd purposely made her unobtainable and out of bounds. But when they cross paths at the reception of his brother's wedding, he can't resist a kiss which gets quickly out of hand.

As an attorney in the U.S. attorney's office, Bronte puts together cases against criminals to take them to trial. As part of the U.S marshal's office, Connor works in the Witness Security and Protection division, protecting witnesses from the criminals as cases go to trial. So when Connor finds himself framed for murder, its Bronte who must piece together the evidence and prove his innocence. Not an easy feat when her own office takes the case out of her hands and evidence mounts -- and when her personal feelings for this ruggedly independent man get in the way.

Tori Carrington turns on the heat in NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN. The dynamic writing team of Lori and Tony Karayianni earn a well-deserved Romantic Times Top Pick award for this feisty conclusion to The Magnifient McCoy Men miniseries. With their characteristic flair for snappy dialogue and carefully crafted wordplay, these authors keep the pages turning. Indeed, the multi layered conflict and multi faceted characters combine in a fast faced adventure that teaches the eldest McCoy brother NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN. Very highly recommended.

This review is from: Never Say Never Again (The Magnificent Mccoy Men) (Harlequin Temptation) (Paperback)

I loved this book and finish it in one night. It was the ending to the McCoy men mini-series. It just as entertaing as the others filled with steamy passion, romance and comedy provided by the other McCoy's introduced in previous books. All five of the McCoy's are strong, passionate, pighead, fun loving men and I loved getting to know them and their mates.
