RT-TOP PICK
After Jean-Claude Laroque, aka Le Diable, becomes the dictator of the African country of Ubasi, the CIA is worried. The private military company Force du Sable is hired to evaluate the situation, and Dr. Emily Carlin is sent to Ubasi to determine what will happen in the region if Jean-Claude is overthrown. From the moment their eyes meet, there's an instant connection, but subterfuge is a must. When Emily finds out what Jean-Claude's situation really is, will help arrive in time? With Seducing the Mercenary (4.5), part of her Shadow Soldiers series, Loreth Anne White sets in motion an intricate plot that's revealed layer by layer. Jean-Claude is a winner of a hero, and his complexity is painted in many shades. This is an enthralling story!

Product Description

The Man Behind The Mask

To the world, Jean-Charles Laroque was a tyrannical ruler--a powerful mercenary driven by greed. But was he threatening enough to assassinate?

Making that assessment was profiler Emily Carlin, a woman whose professionalism masked her phobia of being dominated by an alpha male. A male like Laroque.

Working undercover to infiltrate his psyche, Emily discovered a noble man--and an undeniable attraction. Amid the hot nights, Emily found herself falling for the magnetic Laroque.

But if he discovered her true identity, she might lose not only her chance at love ... but also her life.

Dangerous men. Deadly missions. Only love can save them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Shadow Soldiers Hit, November 11, 2007

By	E. D. Mardis (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book was done, the last page read and yet I sat there holding it in my hands, unwilling to let it go. The sounds of the neighborhood slowly emerged from the jungle in my mind; I had been so engrossed that they had been shoved back into the shadows of Ubasi. Usually when I like a book, I jump up immediately and write the review; but not this time. I want to savor the feelings that still pour through me; its story holds me in its grip. What to say, how to articulate the sensations brought on by Emily/Emma and Jean's story; the emotions that still hold me tight. Ms. White has the ability to transport you into the world of her characters. I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great blend of romance and suspense, November 3, 2007

By	Cindy F. "Cindy" (USA) - See all my reviews

A perfect addition to the Shadow Soldier series! Ms White's world-building is evocative and atmospheric, as usual - I felt I was right there, and I love that sense of escape to another place. A great blend of romance and suspense - an unusual hero coupled with a smart heroine. Can't wait for the next one!
