This is a modern day Indian Jones type of romantic suspense. It’s set in contemporary times but has a fantasy adventure feel to it.
Narice is the headmistress at a prestigious school whose life is turned upside down. First her dad is murdered in a horrible way, then she is kidnapped by some nasty fellows, and finally she is kidnapped again by a man who claims he is saving her from the bad kidnappers. Head spinning yet? This is how the book begins but as the story unfolds things ...more

I really liked this story. I had a few problems with time lines being that this book was written in 2004 and I couldn't quite connect Narice's father with having served in WWII. Should probably have been her grandfather. But I let it go and enjoyed Saint and Narice's story. Where Mykal had kind of run roughshod over Sarita, Narice held her own with Saint. You'd think, with him being portrayed as a James Bond sort, he'd be cocky and overbearing. I was truly impressed with him being a laid b...more
Mike and Sarita were made for each other! I love all of Beverly Jenkins books but I have a special place in my heart for her books that have real kick ass lead female characters. Sarita fits this bill very well.
I have to admit I really enjoyed the historical, mystery, romance of this book.
it was okay..i like her stories that take in the 1800's the best
EXCELLENT, what else can I say! A PAGE-TURNING, thrilling romantic ride from start to finish. Saint is SEXY-AS-ALL-GET-OUT. And Narice went from "damsel in distress" to vibrant and TEMPTING side-kick. I was once again CAUGHT UP in the chase, the mystery and the HOT & SPICY romance. Mrs. Jenkins DEFINITELY has a way with the written word! And I truly enjoy the skillful way she incorporates loads of historical tidbits into her romantic adventures. I can't wait to the read the next...more
Great change of pace for Beverly from historical romance to contemporary romance with mystery/suspense. Loved it.
