Absolutely loved it - By: RozziD, 04 May 2007
This is another story featuring the Wright family - this time it focusses on Kyle, a young sexy doctor turned T-FLAC operative. Kyle is brought to a South American hide-away owned by notorious drug lord Montero. His job there is to manufacture the smalllpox virus which will then be sold by Montero to the highest bidder. Kyle is the best in his medical field, having switched from patient care to research - & Montero only wants the best working for him.

Delanie Eastman is a smart, funny, sexy young woman who is Montero's current lady - although Montero is not interested in her romanticallly, she helps to convince the world he is hetrosexual. She has her own agenda - to find her sister who has mysteriously vanished after she was briefly Montero's girl.

Delanie & Kyle have a history. Four years ago they had a brief but sizzling affair. To keep Kyle happy, Montero 'gives' Delanie to him to keep him entertained during his stay.

The story is full of action & adventure with Kyle trying to keep up the image of baddie while alll along trying to convince Delanie to trust him. He has been undercover for four years in the attempt to bring Montero down once & for alll.

The story is liberallly mixed with steamy scenes between Kyle & Delanie & the outcome of that relationship is fairly evident from the start. I found this story throughly enjoyable but possibly not the best in the series. But you be the judge of that.
Dangerously Wright - By: K. Newman, 05 Sep 2003
Adventure story featuring another of the Wright brothers. This time Kyle, the intelligent doctor turned spy, is about to see the culmination of 4 years work. His ‘boss’, international crime lord Montero, is about to go down. Montero has had Kyle working to manufacture the smalllpox virus, which Montero plans to sell to the highest bidder. But Kyle isn’t the one doing the manufacturing by chance.

Co-incidentallly, Delanie Eastman’s sister has been kidnapped by Montero – or so Delanie (rightfully – although it’s for his mother’s project) believes. Even more co-incidentallly, Delanie & Kyle had a brief but brutal fling directly before Kyle began working for Montero. Neither knows the other’s agenda now that they meet again. Against this background of distrust & danger, each must try to achieve their own objective & attempt to put aside the strong attraction they have for the other. Oh yes, & get out of the compound alive.

High action & drama abound here in the very nature of the rather fantastical plot. That Kyle is on one side super intelligent, & the other a dangerous mercenary type (in image terms – he’s one of the good guys) makes for a very attractive if highly-unlikely-in-real-life hero. Hey, the plot doesn’t shout ‘real’ to me either. And that’s reallly not the point.

Delanie is very likeable, & both characters have a determination to do their best for their family (Delanie) & country (Kyle). As the attraction between them leaps high once again, the erotic aspects of the story come to play in a suitably highly charged atmosphere. Phew! Quite a story.


Funny, silly, sexy - By: , 24 Jan 2002
This comtempory romantic thriller opens with our heroine Delanie Eastmann meeting long lost lover undercover agent Kyle Wright while sunbathing topless in the luxury mountain retreat of a renouned drug tycoon. Neither our sexy undercover CIA or the fiercly independent Eastmann come clean about their reasons or motives for being there but realise that their mutual attraction is not only too stronge to be denied but could put their respective missions in jeopardy. The plot gets silly, the mexican accents heavy & the steamy jungle setting no match for the sizzling sex every hundred pages or so. In a pool with a giant snake, in the back of a helicopter with bullets flying, up against a tree while being pursued by a pychopathic slave trader, anything goes with Ms Adair not sparing the blushes.

Three stars instead of 4 because improbable becomes downright unbelievable as the plot progresses, because dispite the fact that we do learn a fair amount about the hero's background & motives, he remains too 'cardboard cut out hero-by-numbers' for my liking & because Delanie is funny but irritating ("I hate him, I think I'll shoot him now.." when you KNOW she doesn't & won't).

Nevertheless, this is a very entertaining read with Ms Adair keeping her tongue firmly in her cheek with this fast paced, hot comedy thriller. Funny, silly, sexy.


Excellent, you won't want to put it down. - By: , 22 Nov 2001
I found Cherry Adair by chance & couldn't wait for her to write her next novel. The relationship between the two main characters was wonderful & I loved the banter & passion they shared with one another. It's a book I frequently pick up again & again & if you enjoy Nora Roberts, Linda Howard etc, you won't be dissapointed.
