A delightful new voice in Romance, Jun 22 2004
Ce commentaire est de: Bodyguard /Husband: Ultimate Agents (Mass Market Paperback)
Mallory Kane impressed me with her strong voice. Some writers come by this instinctively, other work at it, some never find it. Kane is a strong in this area so she makes this tense tale very enjoyable. She is also very strong in creating character that leap of the pages, so I see more enjoyable tales from this fresh writer. I will be ordering her other works due to the strength of this book. Holly Frasier's life is clouded in troubles. Her husband died mysteriously, and then years later, a fiancée vanishes. Warning bells really sounds when the detective investigating the situation dies too. It's enough to bring in the FBI to protect Holly. Making a target of himself Jack O'Hara goes through a fake marriage with Holly. The detective who died was Jack's good friend. Before his death he and contacted Jack about the case, but Jack had been too busy to get involved. So he is not only out to protect Holly, but avenge his friends murder. Holly is attracted to the sexy FBI man, but resents her presence in her life. She does not want to believe some man - a man she knows - is killing anyone who loves her. Kane is a clear, polished writing signaling she is a writer to watch.

A fun summer read, April 14 2004

I enjoyed this book. I thought that the characters were well developed and witty. They were perfect for each other and there were plenty of suspects for the whodunnit that made it difficult to figure out who the "bad guy" was. Still, I did not like the fact that the heroine of the book had been married and engaged twice before. It made her seem a little shallow and I didn't think it was necessary. Plus, we didn't hear very much about either of their pasts and I would have liked to know more about them. But, all in all, fun and fast. I would recommend it.
