Review
Praise for shannon Mckenna "McKenna's latest scorcher carries readers along a sinister path with a delightfully sadistic villain, a mouthwatering hero, and rough and tumble romance. This is romantic suspense at its best!"
Product Description
Abby Maitland just landed a dazzling exhibit of priceless Spanish treasure for the museum - and someone would kill for it. Whether she likes it or not, Zan Duncan has to protect her. But Abby's mesmerised by Zan's untamed strength and very sexual vibe. From the long dark hair, the thick, hard muscles, and the black leather jacket right on down to the honed fighting skills and the tattoos, Zan is a master of subtle seduction, giving her night after night of secret, endless pleasure. Then a lethal game of deception, greed and murder gets underway - a game more sinister than Abby and Zan ever imagined. When no one can be trusted and no place is safe, their passion may be the only thing that can save them...

Hot Nights-Joyfully Recommended, Sep 17 2006
By M. Nix - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hot Night (Paperback)
After locksmith Zan Duncan rescues her from a horrible blind date, Abby Maitland tries to forget her gorgeous rescuer. Although Abby finds Zan very attractive, he's a bad boy and the last thing Abby needs is another bad boy boyfriend. Even if he does star in her sexual fantasies and tempts her to break her own rules and engage in an affair.But a simple affair is not in the cards for Abby and Zan. A psychotic madman has set his sights on the pair. Little does the couple know that they are being manipulated to fulfill his evil plan. With time running out, Abby and Zan have no one to turn to, but to each other.
I was willing to sell body parts for a chance to read Hot Night by Shannon Mckenna, although I was a little worried that I might not love this latest book. I've only been waiting for what seems like a million years for it to arrive. And oh boy, the wait was so worth it!
I devoured Hot Night. I loved it so much that I threatened to run away to Mexico with it. Zan is exactly the type of Alpha hero I adore. He's intense, powerful, smart and I want him for my own. Abby is beautiful, loyal, intelligent and it's so not fair. She is all that and she has Zan. Did I mention I am in LOVE with Zan?
I am crazy-mad for Hot Night and cannot say enough good things about this book. Hot Night is ohmigod, burn up the sheets, get out the HAZMAT suit, hot. The suspense is thrilling and wonderfully crafted. It is delicious in all ways! I have always been a Shannon McKenna fan, but after reading Hot Night, I am an uber fan.

Shocking, Dec 8 2006
By Solipsist "Maa" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hot Night (Paperback)
How much did I hate this book? An awful, awful lot. I'm not sure I can do justice to my hate in such a short space. And I cannot believe how generously this book has been reviewed in light of the central relationship and its frankly rather disturbing overtones.As always with Ms McKenna's books, you have the beautiful, quirky heroine in distress and the ALPHA-male hero. The plot is driven by a campy, over the top villain with nefarious intentions and some suitably goonish underlings. Fine. It's ridiculous, but amusing in a high-camp kind of way. I even liked Abby. I liked the little details about her life, I liked her wardrobe; she comes across as a good depiction of a single, successful modern woman. And yes, the chemistry is sizzling and the sex is hot and it is everything we have come to expect - So far so McKenna.
It all comes unglued with Zan. This is a guy who comes across as normal in the beginning of the book; bit of a meat-head, yes, with a limited vocabulary and not a lot of social polish (Vintage McKenna), but certainly cute and studly enough to catch the eye of our heroine. The aforementioned sizzling chemistry and hot sex ensues.
And then it goes horribly wrong.
Before my eyes, a cute, light hearted romance turns dark and nasty. Zan is transformed into a crude, controlling monster. He is jealous, controlling and violent. The worst thing is, it's never resolved. There is no moment of enlightenment; Zan's complete disregard for Abby's work, her career, his inability compromise - an issue that is NOT resolved by the end of the book - left me speechless. He is a graceless, sulking hulk in Abby's world, a great big black hole of negativity and stupidity. He has no interest in her life and by the end of the book, you can't help but wonder what smart, intelligent, beautiful Abby would want with a giant dick - besides the obvious. Don't get me wrong, I like them alpha; I like them domineering. But this was not cool. Zan's relationship with Abby was not cool. And it was jarring precisely because McKenna is a good enough writer that you expect more from her than this unequal, unappetising pairing.

An Up All Night Read!, Oct 6 2006
By Kristi Ahlers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hot Night (Paperback)
Abby Maitland is trying to put her past to rest. She picks the wrong guys every single time she steps up to plate. Her latest set-up is a real winner and to top things off she's locked herself out of the house. She calls a locksmith who just so happens to like to play hero stopping a potential rape and beating. Abby can't help but be drawn to the handsome dark stranger named Zan but she has to her sanity demands it. But like always the one thing that seems to be the worst for her is all she wants. She finally gives into the sensual draw he generates and this should make things better...but it doesn't instead her life gets much more complicated and Zan is at the center of it all. Her best friend has been killed, people think it's a suicide and bad things keep happening to her. But there is a killer out there and he is closer then anyone knows. Will Zan and Abby be able to stay one step ahead of him or will a killer strike one more time?Ms. McKenna is an automatic buy for me. Her stories have it all! Great alpha males that are very endearing to the reader, sexy romance between the main characters, and evil baddies straight out of a nightmare. If you are looking for a stay up late night of reading you won't want to over look this page turning effort. Like I said it has it all!
