I had a harder time getting into the story and so much of it seemed unrealistic with the heroine. I really don't believe a kindergarten teacher that's only taken a self defense class would be able to go up against a drug cartell. This is my second Cherry Adair book. I am enjoying the stories of the Wright men and their sister. This book had a lot of exciting danger scenes and a lot of sex. At times I felt the sex took away from the actual story since there was so much of it. But I liked the characters and how complex they were. The story is set in South America. The female (Delanie) and the male (Kyle) met years ago and now run into each other while both are in the middle of a secret mission - not the same mission which makes things very interesting. From BackCover: A steamy, heart-stopping thrill ride through the jungle as a woman living a lie is forced to trust the one man who can expose her secrets.... Posing as the spoiled girlfriend of an international crime lord, Delanie Eastman braves a remote mountain in South America to find her missing sister. The last person she expects to see is Kyle Wright, the man she had a torrid affair with four years ago. What is he doing so far from home? Though frightened and suspicious of this man who is not what he seems, Delanie cannot resist the dangerous attraction that draws her ever closer to him like a moth to flame. Kyle is in the middle of his own secret mission and he's not about to let the gorgeous, unpredictable Delanie ruin his carefully laid plans. He will guide Delanie out of the jungle by any means necessary--including seduction. But just one touch is all it takes to rekindle the intoxicating flame that still burns between them, igniting an arsenal of desire that could cost them their lives. For soon both are on the run, playing a lethal game of... HIDE and SEEK no reviews | add a review

The action was great, ongoing with no real flat spots. I always love a book that has the women in danger scenario, but in this I loved the fact that the hero went from protective to impatient and back again.
I enjoyed both characters, which is a real bonus for me. Delanie didn't whinge or whine... the only negative here for me was I think Delanie was too she-man when they are in the forest fighting off the baddies. I mean, she is a kindergarten teacher after all. But it didn't annoy me enough to stop me reading.
I loved Kyle...right down to his impatience with Delanie and the choice he sometimes has to make between his duty and her was worked into the story well without making an OTT production of it. He sometimes came off as rather abrasive, but don't all men!!
Anyway, I can't say this is a standout or a favourite but it certainly kept me turning the pages. Read it in one sitting. Recommended to all who like romantic-suspense more on the romance side than 'suspense' like me. (
