I’ve read Pamela Clare’s Historical Romance series, MacKinnon’s Rangers highlander novels, Surrender and Untamed and loved them both, so when I heard that she had a romantic suspense series, I was pretty sure I’d enjoy them as well, and wow, was I ever right! Now my biggest dilemma is, do I plow through the rest of the books, one after the other, or pace myself?
Extreme Exposure is the first book in the suspense filled I-Team series. The I-Team is the investigative reporting t More...

4.5 Stars - I really enjoyed this! But....This book made me think of my work. For that reason alone, I'll have to minus half a star. LOL ^o^ Actually, to be more accurate, my line of work made me question parts of the legislative process portrayed in this book and now I feel like I need to do "homework" to find out how it works in Colorado. Dang! ^_^

Kudos to Ms. Clare for taking two of the most hated professions, and giving us three-dimensional, lovable characters in these professions that question this reader's perceptions of people in these fields. Kara is a reporter, but she is one of the reporters that show the ethics and the dedication that the people in this field should represent, in a perfect world. She's a really sweet person, but is also strong and driven to do a good job. Kara faces the struggle that many American women face, r

I burned through Pamela Clare's "Extreme Exposure" like a chocoholic after a year's drought. I'm torn as to whether I liked this one even more than "Hard Evidence" which is book two of the 'I-Team' series, but the one I read first! I love the fact that these books are gripping romantic suspense, yet still believable. The characters are wonderfully flawed and the relationships are complex and seriously HOT.

Pamela Clare's Extreme Exposure is a treat for contemporary romance readers. Clare's familiarity with her subjects and her well-rounded characters bring reality back into a genre that eschews fangs and flights of fancy. Even the danger in this novel is Erin-Brockovich-plausible, where a mining corporation ignoring health and environmental regulations wants to silence our nosy heroine, reporter Kara McMillan.

Reece and Kara are just awesome characters. I love their personalities and Pamela Clare has a way of just sucking you into the pages.....
With his dangerous good looks, charm, and power, Senator Reece Sheridan could have just about any woman he sets his piercing eyes on. But he’s intrigued by only one. This Kara, this gutsy investigative reporter, has a sensuality that arouses him to no end. If she’s a firebrand in print, he guesses, she must be just as fiery in bed…

You know...some days I think I nitpick everything, and other days I feel like I'm way too lenient with books. Considering the fact that I actually did enjoy the book, it makes me feel a little guilty for how much I'm about to pick apart the male lead.

Wowsers. Pamela Clare is a force to be reckoned with. Intelligent characters in a gritty, realistic setting and who have fantastic chemistry from the moment they meet. This does not happen everyday! But when it works, by golly, it works.
The attention to detail is pretty staggering, and I appreciate that Clare, who has years of journalism experience behind her, has made the great effort in keeping her story and her characters authentic, with weaknesses and strengths, vulnerabilities More...

A nice--different--romantic suspense based on a state senator, Reece, and an investigative reporter, Kara. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was fast-paced, with great characters (including secondary), funny, suspenseful, romantic, and well written. There is wide-spread corruption in both business and political bureaucracies--scandal, murder...it's all in this book.

I have been wanting to read this series for month's, especially after reading all the great reviews it has warranted. I sat down with my Kindle last night at about 10pm just intending to read for a couple of hours before going to bed. At 5am, I was done! Reece & Kara's story, scratch that; their spark, lust, desire, love - just leap off of the page and grab you. It refuses to let go until you finish.

I have to start out by saying that I am an infrequent Contemporary reader. I am super picky and usually end up extremely unhappy with my reading experience because of how unbelievable I find the characters.

For some reason, the series name, I-Team, had me expecting an Elite Ops/SEAL/mercenary sort of romantic suspense. So I was confused for a moment there when I realized we were dealing with the Investigative team of a newspaper and not hot men who are trained killers, heh. But once that was cleared cleared up, I started noticing a few things.
