Product Description
A striking beauty with a taste for diamonds and dangerous men, Drea Rousseau was more than content to be arm candy for Rafael Salinas, a notorious crime lord who deals with betrayal through quick and treacherous means: a bullet to the back of the head, a blade across the neck, an incendiary device beneath a car. Now eager to break with Rafael, Drea makes a fateful decision and a desperate move, stealing a mountain of cash from the malicious killer. After all, an escape needs to be financed.
Though Drea runs, Salinas knows she can’t hide – and he dispatches a cold-blooded assassin in hot pursuit, resulting in a tragic turn of events. Or does it?
Left for dead, Drea miraculously returns to the realm of the living a changed woman. She’s no longer shallow and selfish, no longer steals or cheats or sells herself short. But in order to feel safe she will need to take down those who marked her for death.

 Death Angel September 6, 2008
Great book, kept me on the edge of my seat and looked forward to reading it
 Basically a romance novel September 6, 2008
I was extremely dsappointed. This was a romance novel and a poor one at that. one more like this and Linda Howard is crossed off my list. Please let us know if the only real theme of the book is sex.
Really didn't enjoy this book. September 3, 2008

I usually love Linda Howard's books, but I didn't like anything about this book. I hated the characters, the plot, and especially the ending.
Interesting Storyline September 2, 2008
I don't think I ever read this particular storyline before and I felt myself torn. I didn't love the book or dislike it. It doesn't have much depth but then most romantic/thrillers don't so being entertained is the most I can hope for. Most of the book is about the 2 characters; The Assasin and the Mistress. Could they be redeemable? Perhaps! I think some reviewers have trouble with someone getting away with murder. HE did indicate he never killed anyone in law enforcement or women. The people he killed were evil men involved in the Underworld-Still one has trouble justifying it. Military men kill the enemy-but here it's a moral issue but this is fiction and the whole book takes on a fantasy feeling. I really doubt that Drea had the knowledge to transfer large sums of money to other banks but I saw some amusement in the fact that she did. The Miracle is a bit far out and another reason the story takes on a fantasy feel. It's not badly written and moves along except it does seem to get wordy at times. Simon and Drea are basically the only two characters in the book. Others come and go except for the 2 FBI agents who are very likable characters. In order for you to know the 2 main characters well, the author does need to give us a lot of their thoughts so therefore the excess wordiness. It's not a book I will probably read again but was an interesting change of storyline and though no one else mentions seeing humor in it but the fact it's a "dark" story I still saw an amount of humor to the whole concept. I haven't liked many of Ms. Howards books since the McKenzie's but this one was just enough different to keep my attention. Some reviewers didn't like Simon's character but
I can't see him played any other way. This is one book you will probably dislike strongly or really like it.
Two Unappealing Characters August 30, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have always enjoyed Linda Howard's books, but I cannot understand why she would make such unappealing characters into her protagonists. I don't want to spoil anything for other readers but the lead characters were completely unlovable and unlikeable.
