5.0 out of 5 stars
Simply Fantastic..., March 12, 2006
This review is from: Radical Cure (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)
Radical Cure is the first book I've read by Olivia Gates...but, cetainly not my last. I'll be grabbing up her backlist asap!
The previous reviews already provide the background for this book... I'll just add that this is an edgy, fast-paced, action-packed novel. I wouldn't limit it to a "medical thriller".
Calista St. James is a smart, strong, capable woman and sparks fly when she is with Damian De Luna, a smart, sexy, capable man. The author not only writes intelligent 3-D characters, but she knows how to turn up the heat between these two.
I think this book can be read as a stand-alone book, but I have already placed my order for Strong Medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars
exciting medical thriller, February 16, 2006
This review is from: Radical Cure (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)
Following the Russian incident, Calista St. James vowed never again to depend on Damien DeLuna who swears he loves her and acted out of her best interests; she thinks he chose the mission over her and can live with that, but not his method. However, Calista has a new problem when her medical team devastates her team sending kind hearted people like Jake into a rage.
She needs to find the cure to an illness whose symptoms defy medical knowledge as the indications behave contradictory. Calista learns that a potential elixir is in a dangerous part of South America so she enlists the only man she believes can get them in and out, Damien who will lead her. Damien agrees, though he has some safety stipulations, as he will do anything to prove his love to his cherished Calista.
RADICAL CURE is an exciting medical thriller with a touch of romance. The story line starts at a fast-paced speed with Calista and her team trying to free a girl from white slave traders, shifts into a higher gear with Jakes turning into a lunatic, and finally accelerates even more as the lead couple goes to South America. Fans will feel the sexual tension between Calista and Damien who, if they survive this mission, still have plenty to overcome as love is not enough as she trusts him with her life but not her heart.

Floridian, September 19, 2006
This review is from: Radical Cure (Silhouette Bombshell) (Mass Market Paperback)
Radical Cure is the perfect book to follow Strong Medicine. I was so happy to find Calista and Damian again as they move onto stronger, medical adventures. As usual Olivia Gates delights us with her writing style, the generous dedication of her doctors and their amazing energy and passion. A story you have to read.
