Romantic fiction is not generally my genre of choice, but given that Radclyffe is a popular lesbian fiction writer, I thought it was necessary to give this a try.

Radclyffe has some great plot ideas, and this one is no different. Her ideas for situations are unique and capture the reader's interest. Her characters aren't quite as developed as they could be, but they are still different and interesting nonetheless, except for physical features, which seem to standardize with fit and slightly muscular.

That being said, Radclyffe gets stuck in the romance aspect of romance fiction a bit too much. Above All, Honor is actually on the light side of the romance, and because of that, is probably the best one in her Honor series. I much prefer contemplating the plot than hearing about what goes on under the sheets.

Of course, quite a few people think otherwise, so that is what makes Radclyffe popular. She delivers for her audience. However, I can't help but be slightly disappointed that she doesn't take a slightly more serious approach to fiction and fully explore her strong creativity for plots and stories that engage the reader, rather than write for the largest common denominator.

She's a tough Secret Service agent with a tragic past. She's the president's closeted daughter who hates being surveilled. They don't exactly fight crime, but they do fall in love, with lots of sex with other people to try to avoid emotional entanglement. It was basically a standard explicit romance with bonus casual sex, though I'm not sure whether the constant references to the (butch) agent's "hardness" was a trope of lesbian erotica or merely this author's tic.

first book in the series introduces secret service agent Cameron Roberts, who must protect the presidents only daughter. Blair Powell has no intention of being easy to protect, as she slips away from agents to go bar hopping and picking up conquests. ( )
