1: Entertaining, but not as good as some of the other books in the series
From the back cover:
He'd been in dangerous situation before...
But Luke Maitland had never put another person at risk--until Blossom Woodward, the controversial TV reporter, happened into the line of fire meant for him. He had saved her life; then he'd had to take her with him into hiding.
She called it kidnapping. She didn't trust the man who said his name was Larkin--and insisted he was protecting her--on bit. Sure, he was kind and brave and...well...gorgeous and sexy, but he was lying through his teeth! She certainly couldn't be falling in love with him, a man whose real name she didn't even know--could she?
The concluding book to the Maitland Maternity series.
And my review:
I bought this book because it was part of the Maitland Maternity series. "The Inheritance" by Marie Ferrarella had tweaked my curiousity, so I grabbed this one.
What was interesting in this book was that Blossom was actually an almost villan in "The Inheritance", so seeing her in the role of heroine was entertaining. Also, though this was a "captive falling for her captor plot", the author refrained from that disgusting he-rapes-her-and-she-loves-it plot device.
However, what this book had in suspense and drama, it lacking in actual romance. I didn't really feel the characters drawing together emotionally. Most of the attraction seemed to be physical, and that wears pretty thin after a while.
If you want to complete your series, go ahead and get this. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend this book, as it's pretty average.
