In their race for the truth, love must prove more powerful than America's worst enemy…

When a gorgeous, bleeding woman on the run falls into the arms of Sean "Metal" O'Brien, the former SEAL medic knows just what he can do. Heal her. Tend to her. Keep her safe.

What he can't seem to do is keep his guard up. Something about the haunted, hunted beauty knocks down all his defenses.

Felicity Ward is no stranger to secrets. Raised in the Witness Protection Program, her whole childhood was a lie. But she couldn't have known that her family's secrets—secrets she didn't even know she was keeping—could spark a nuclear war.

And nothing could have prepared her for the tough, sexy warrior who first saves her life and then vows to protect it, no matter what.

我喜歡這本更勝Midnight Vengeance,理由跟天空同學類似,就是這本多了很多小小的內心戲,讓整個故事更顯細膩。

其實這種alpha man類型的羅曼史,大家都很容易想到,弱不禁風的女主角跟肌肉男主角。一個強勢,一個柔順,兩造之間的拉扯似乎已經成為此類羅曼史千古不變的定律。

但是,作者在公式之下,卻又找出點點新意。男主角Metal強勢的外表下,溫柔細膩的醫者心不斷湧現,和女主角Felicity在經歷童年跟少年時期的不順遂後,仍堅強走下去的毅力,在故事裡不斷穿插、碰撞。男女雙方之間的差異,這麼明顯,卻又這樣完美的結合再一起,這就是羅曼史的真諦,不是嘛?

最特別的是,本書並不是系列套書的第一本,更顯得這種細膩的描寫跟敘述難能可貴,讓我不禁想到 Lisa Marie Rice這個作者多年的創作高峰在此展現,希望能在後面的作品持續下去。

        Lisa Marie Rice的Midnight系列來到第五本,出版社由Ellora's Cave換到了Carina Press,味道也由麻辣變為清淡。看到一半的時候才想起來,咦,故事到了一半,男女主角居然還沒上床,這真的是Lisa Marie Rice寫的嗎?別擔心,如假包換還是Lisa Marie Rice操刀,勾著你一口氣看完的那個勁兒還是沒變。
        男主角綽號“Metal”,剛開始認識的時候,女主角猜測他為什麽被人這麽叫,是不是因為他的肌肉(They were as hard as steel),後來才知道He had more metal in his body than bone.原來是硬汗子一條!(Lisa Marie Rice的男主角,哪個不是呢?)
        我喜歡這本比前幾本多了很多內心戲(其實前三本雖然火辣但是內心戲絕不少),比前幾本更顯細膩,更偏重感情方面,大推!
