Editorial Reviews

Review

"Leigh’s pages explode with a hot mixture of erotic pleasures.”—Romantic Times BOOKreviews

"Lora Leigh brings the heat and plenty of intrigue. HEAT SEEKER is aptly named because you'll hear and feel the sizzle every time you turn these pages. Filled with adventure, suspense, action and lots of hot loving, this one's a definite keeper!" --Night Owl Romance (Reviewer Top Pick!)



Product Description

John Vincent has always led a life of danger, and now he has every reason to want to remain as dead as the obituary in the Australian papers had proclaimed him to be. He’d left nothing behind in the life he had once led—except for one woman, and one night of unforgettable passion. Now, both will return to haunt him…

Bailey Serborne is still tormented by a past she can’t change and a man she hasn’t been able to forget. A man who was supposed to dead.. But now, a stroke of fate has revealed that sometimes, a woman is given a second chance to heal her heart—and exact the sweetest revenge…

2.0 out of 5 stars New Characters same romance, September 4, 2009
I have to say that I devoured this book in one night and was left wondering.... haven't I read this before?

Here you decide...

Two people are falling in love, the marrying kind of love that is ;) when the man is 'killed.' Now the woman is left to rebuild her life, but she is almost destroyed doing it, she misses her lover and how safe he made her feel. They knew everything about each other, wait didn't she sense a 'darker' side to him that he never unleashed but she secretly craved?

Next the man who was killed is reborn to a different identity and signed his soul away to a special secret organization, but wait... oh no! His woman (former woman) is in the middle of a case and is in trouble! He will risk his identity and love to protect her. While posing as her lover he actual gets back in to her bed for real. She is a woman and has these... womanly instincts, and so she knows it's her former lover! He wasn't killed! That bastard! But wait no I'm sure he has a good reason! She love him!

Then all hell breaks loose, followed by breaking out of that hell, followed by heart wrenching good byes, followed by everything working out.

So is it....

a.) Hidden Agendas? (no he didn't 'die' but he still left her)

b.) Wild Card?

c.) Heat Seeker?




You know what? I'm gonna let you answer.

2.0 out of 5 stars This elite ops book lacks some heat, September 11, 2009
By Deborah Verlen "dmverlen" (Park Ridge, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
The elite ops are a team of operations specialists who have all "died" and been "reborn" by Jorden Malone's efforts (team leader).

Heat Seeker is the code name for John Vincent who rose from the ashes or death of former Australian Secret Intelligence agent Trent Daylen. Before his "death" Daylen had been involved in an operation with Bailey Serborne, a CIA operative. The op ended and they spent one night together before Trent was blown up. Enter Malone who saves his life.

Both Bailey and John are on the trail of a domestic terrorist called Warbucks, an assassin she suspects murdered her parents and best friend and a man the elite ops team is tracking because he is selling weapons to the enemy.

Bailey has quit the CIA and presents herself as going rogue in order to draw Warbucks out. She and John meet up in Aspen where they both have identified four men as potential candidates to be Warbucks.

This sums up the plot. The book was disappointing to me in that the plot was convoluted, I guessed the identity of Warbucks almost right away, the steamy romance scenes often seemed to be manufactured for steam rather than plot advancement, and the book had very very poor editing. In fact as I was slogging through the book there were a few moments where I thought Leigh wrote the steamy scenes first and then crafted the plot around them. Here Bailey and John are in high danger most of the time, off in a country house that has cameras and bugs and whatever all over--and they can't keep their hands off of each other.

[...] Editing issues include:
* towards the end of the book Mary evidently becomes Jules. And if not, who is Jules? I found myself thumbing back through the book thinking I had forgotten the name in my boredom as I plodded through it.
* Bailey's last name was spelled differently twice I believe. Serbourne and Serborne.
* If I'm correct when Leigh adds 1 plus 5 she gets 5 instead of 6 (number of years Trent/John had been dead
* Missing quotation marks and some other grammatical issues

[...] It would give the plot more credibility and bring more depth to the stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars really good, September 3, 2009
Another good elite ops installment. I didnt LOVE this but I liked it a lot. Heat Seeker is the story of John Vincent and Bailey Seborn. As with all in the elite series the agents are men that supposedly die. Their death allows them to assume a new identity without any entanglements and be more efficient agents.

Bailey is continuing her crusade to find the men/man responsible for her parents death. She has quit the CIA to focus on her own investigation and has gotten close enough that she will catch the killer. In comes the elite ops. John is sent in since he has had a relationship with Bailey in the past before his "death". He must work with her to bring the killer to justice. Whats different in this novel from Maverick and Wild Card is that the hero doesnt have as much baggage as Micah and Noah. He has managed to maintain his happy persona and readers are not given the emotional and traumatic issues from the prior heroes. I was more caught in the mystery and suspense aspect of this story than the romance between the heroine and hero. Not due to any fault of Leigh, the story was just that compelling because it continues the trail of Orion from Maverick. I really enjoyed Bailey's character and she had a lot more strength than Risa(obviously) and Bella, who could barely function after her husbands "death". This story was more upbeat and it didnt take long for Bailey to learn who John vincent really was although I think she fought the knowledge to avoid accepting that he walked away from her in the past. Worth the read, continues the story line and Leigh fans will enjoy. There are still a couple other "dead" agents to cover and I'm very curious to find out who Tehya was in her "past life"

Micah and Noah are still tops in my heart
