Michael Bennis’ novel, Dangerous and Desirable, is an exciting, nail-biting thriller where the danger comes from all angles. Julio Navarro, aka Julian Rivera, a former boxer, is a hired assasin who works for England, USA and Isreal. He falls in love with Ziv Yadin who is Mossad’s top operative. However, he still has feelings for his former lover. The story plays out on an internatuinal stage: from New York to Madrid to Mexico. It begins a little slow but once it gets going it is like a juggernaut–a powerful vehicle on a twisting, turning downhill road with murder and mayhem in its wake; secrets and intrigue. Some of the scenes are heart wrenching and gut wrenching. Bennis brings the story along like you’re actually there. It’s a real page-turner and will keep you up way past your bedtime.

Excerpt: “What can I do, Ziv?”

“You can take me with you!”

He gently took her by the arm and led her inside. “Have you said good-bye to Eli?”

“Yes, he’s on his way to Tel Aviv. He begged me to forget him and never to call.”

“Ziv, I can only imagine how horribly this must hurt.”

“You’re incapable of imagining what I feel.”…

“What are you seeing, Ziv?”

She trembled. “I’m seeing a beautiful young woman shoot herself in the head. Then I’m seeing splattered brain.”

“Are you there now?”

Her voice was hollow. “A part of me is always there. I feel so cold and so alone.”

At first the book feels a lot like the author’s book Rules of Engagement, a complicated romance, full of interesting fractured personalities, that is, until we reach the Mexican connection and from there it changes from a romance to a thriller, it’s as exciting as The Bridge on coke with a touch of the original NCIS.

A very exciting well-written read with women who would scare anyone but the books main character; a complicated man, a combination of great kindness or great ruthlessness. Frankly it’s hard to turn the kindle off and I only did so once because I had to.

A wild ride from beginning to end and unlike Rules of Engagement, which is a Dry Martini in a sunlit garden, the pool shimmering and reflecting sunlight, this one is still full of sun, but the drier, harsher sun of a baking desert where you sip your astringent lemon Margarita at your peril.

This is absolutely the best of all of Michael Bennis’s books. I could not put it down–read it start to finish in one day. It is obvious that this love story about two dangerous assassins from different parts of the world is well researched. The descriptions are wonderful, and the story is exciting and fun to read.
