Romance title: The Mercenary

Victoria Jones was a lousy liar. Not that the sensible bookkeeper was accustomed to lying--or anything else that would have disrupted her safe, dull existence. But her world took a terrifying turn when her twin brother, Alex, an agent for T-FLAC, the elite antiterrorist task force, went missing.

Now she'll do anything to find him...lie, cheat, even subject herself to the predatory advances of Alex's T-FLAC partner, Marc Savin, if it will help get her brother home safe.

But trusting the sexy, brooding operative might just be the risk of a lifetime.

The Mercenary

Nervous perspiration prickled her skin.

Even though she couldn't hear breathing other than her own, her heightened sense of fear let her know she wasn't alone. Someone was watching her. Victoria Jones lay very still, eyes closed, heart pounding an uneven tattoo beneath her sore ribs.

Needing a few moments to orientate herself she tried to keep her breathing steady. A log flaring in the fireplace. There hadn't been a fire when she'd come in. But now she felt its heat and saw the dancing orange light through her eyelids.

To still her panic she counted to a hundred and twenty, then added another fifty for good measure, then slowly opened her eyes. The library was dim, but flickering firelight illuminated the lower half of the man sitting in the shadows across the room. Boots, long, jean-clad legs…the rest of him disappeared into darkness and shadow.

Heart lodged in her throat, she struggled to sit up. She'd accidentally fallen asleep, and now she was groggy and disoriented and at a distinct disadvantage.

The fact that the man wasn't saying anything intimidated her and made her feel defensive and automatically in the wrong. But she could be overreacting. Fear an ... read full excerpt from: The Mercenary ebook

Reviewer: Lisa from Potomac Falls, VA US
This was Adair's first T-flac book, but it doesn't read like the others. However, I love this book. Marc is B-A-D bad and I mean that in a very good way. Tory is, well, unique. She is so out of her element, but just wont' give up. I love her, and she messes Marc up in some of the most adorable ways. He has no defenses against her, and that is what makes this story so wonderful. There is a bit of the paranormal in this book, but it's not so far out there that you have to be a paranormal fan to get into this book. The story is unpredictable and quite suspenseful. An overall enjoyable read!

Cherry Adair is one of my favorite authors, and she does not disappoint with The Mercenary. This is perhaps one of my favorite out of all of her books thus far. A retired mercenary is faced with a woman who is seeking her brother and her only way to get him out of his capture alive is with this man. However, what the two may not have been expecting is the attraction between the two. One is truly innocent and the mercenary is doing everything in his power to ignore his friend's little sister...easier said than done. While on the mission, Mr. big bad mercenary finds himself falling for this slip of a woman and drawn to how much strength she has for one so innocent. After giving into one night of passion, the fulfill their mission and go on with their lives. But fate intervenes and the two may have found more than they bargained for.
