Publisher Description
Revisit a classic romantic suspense novel by New York Times Bestselling Author, Sharon Sala. From the miniseries A Year of Loving Dangerously.
The brilliant SPEAR agent, Alicia Corbin has been given a new assignment: to persuade retired agent East Kirby to return to the field and catch the traitor that is threatening the head of the organisation. East has no intention to go back, even if the opportunity of working side by side with the incredibly attractive agent, Alicia Corbin is on the table. But when his son gets kidnapped by the same person that is threatening the organisation, East and Ally join forces to successfully complete the mission, rescue his son, and gain a potential partner... for life.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
By the end of the first chapter of Sala's overwrought romance, Wes Holden, a former POW in Afghanistan who suffers from PTSD, has seen a Muslim terrorist kill his wife and son. Meanwhile, in rural West Virginia, Ally Monroe cares for a selfish father and two fully grown brothers. Her father urges her to marry a local widower, but Ally, who gave up on love long ago (what with being born with a game leg), dreams of a man walking out of the woods to save her from her drudgery which is exactly what happens. The grief-stricken Wes, having regained his senses and realized that his slimy stepbrother wants to get his hands on his army benefits, escapes to Blue Creek, W.Va., where he meets Ally. But there's a mysterious farmer up on the mountain, and extremely unsettling things happen when Ally's brothers begin to help him harvest his crop. Though the two well-realized leads fall in love in a credible fashion, their story is lost amid the overwriting. The palpable aura of sadness surrounding Wes and Ally eventually grows to overwhelming proportions, because most of the other characters are incredibly selfish, greedy, evil or mad. To top it off, the book takes a gruesome, violent turn toward the end that makes it, and its Perils of Pauline plot, even more absurd.
