Description

Fiction. Romance. HTML:Could a revolutionary used to running wild win the heart of a world-weary journalist?

Liam Bartlett had nearly lost his life in San Salustiano, and for five years the correspondent had done his best to silence his ghosts. But when Marisala Bolivar arrived in Boston, all his memories returned--along with a white-hot hunger for the young rebel who'd hidden him and kept him alive! Marisala ached for Liam's touch, so long forbidden but now hers to fight for with a woman's show more fierce need. Could a love once forged in fire at last burn true?

In this unforgettably sensual love story, Suzanne Brockmann creates a portrait of two daredevil survivors, tested by sorrow and bound by destiny to heal each other's wounds. A flame who beckoned him out of the darkness, she understood his pain as no one ever would, but could he soothe her hidden scars by offering her his soul?

Ugh. At least it was short. Parts of the story weren't bad, but the "big misunderstanding" was just unbelievably lame. All that was required was for the two main characters to have one actual conversation with each other--and perhaps each of them to be hit on the head with a blunt object first. Honestly, it was eye-rollingly rediculous! The first in the series was sooooo much better...it got to the point where I was praying just for a mention of Kayla or Cal in order to get away from Liam and Marisala's obtuseness, but no such luck. Did I mention it was short? I guess I should just stick to her later works. At least it was a library read.
I liked this story okay, but it's nothing exceptional. Liam and Marisala have quite a past and when they reunite after many years, they are each forced to face those demons. It's obvious from the start that they will help each other accept what life has dealt them. I'm always a fan of friends who become lovers, so that part of this appeals to me.

Both characters are well developed and interesting. The story line is something different than I've read before, so it wasn't totally predictable. Overall, I enjoyed the story and this author. I'll be seeking others by her.
Very sexy, but the plot was lacking, and it felt so...insignificant. Disappointing.
This isn't one of her SEALs books; but it's still good. All her stuff is.
