There's lots of action, lust, betrayal(s), violence, nerve racking suspense, snappy and witty dialogue, heroics, and most importantly, love between two tortured souls just made for each other.

She was too harsh, sneaky and, to be blunt, an overall bitch. Like many readers, I was very skeptical when I heard that Ms. McKenna was making her the heroine in <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3143949.Ultimate_Weapon_McCloud_Friends_6_" title="Ultimate Weapon (McCloud &amp; Friends #6) by Shannon McKenna">Ultimate Weapon</a> because...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/45276738">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I had a hard time deciding what to rate this book.

    <body><![CDATA[A little heavy-going and some parts in the first half that dragged. Other than that, it was an above average read. I can't say I liked it that much because there was something missing though I can't quite put my finger on it.

The structure of crime organizations, feuds, and international intrigue, as well as very powerful, skilled and beautiful heroes/heroines is the same... but in this one the female character, Tamar, is a bit too hard and damaged to like, plus she...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/55665170">more...</a>]]></body>

While I am happy to resolve Tam's issues and better grasp her character, I myself am too far removed from her struggles to have been more engaged in her story.
