Summary: One of the best in the romance genre writes another winner
Review: Although two years have passed, Roan Storm Walker still grieves the loss of his beloved spouse Sarah. However, his grief is interrupted when he "dreams" of an amazon woman. Inca shouts at him that he is like her, a member of the healing Jaguar clan, and she needs him to be at her side when the battle for life and death occurs.Not long after, Roan leaves his Montana hideaway to head to the Brazilian Rain Forest where he meets the environmentalist warrior Inca. Working together, they lead a military raid that includes Morgan and his mercenaries, a raid on an illegal drug cartel camp. Roan finds his heart regenerating under Inca's healing and love. Inca finds her soul mate in Roan's complete belief in her abilities. As their relationship becomes stronger, making both of them even more powerful, Roan and Inca must go to war with dangerous enemies who want them dead. The latest Morgan Mercenary tale, HEART OF THE WARRIOR, contains all the non-stop action, adventure, exotic locale, and passion of the previous novels. Mysticism augments the exhilarating plot, but Lindsay McKenna effortlessly ensures that the otherworldly elements fully flow within the story line. The lead charcaters are quite a couple, towering in size, intelligence, and guts. Their colossal love is the final touch on one of the more delectable romantic adventures of the year.

Summary: Inca symbolizes the spirit within every woman...
Review: HEART OF THE WARRIOR has been a divine labor of love for me. For years, Inca, the heroine, has been in my life creatively speaking. Many of you have met her through various Silhouette Special Edition books I've written previously. Well, now she has a book of her own! Inca is a mystical, mysterious, passionate woman whose heart is centered on her mission: to keep the Indians of the Amazon Basin safe from marauding gem miners, timber barons and cocaine drug lords. All of these contingents want to either abuse or destroy the Indians and she is the only bulwark between them living and dying. She's a warrior. She lives her life with unforgiving passion. And until Roan Storm Walker comes into her life, she has not known the love a man can have for a woman. Abandoned at birth, Inca believes no one wants her. She is a member of the mystical and healing Jaguar Clan. Only 24 years old, she has lived her entire life in the Amazon jungle. In many ways, she is an innocent to the world at large. In other ways, she is a fierce warrioress who will stand toe-to-toe with any faction that threatens to harm her people who raised and cared for her as she was growing up. She is larger-than-life, she is an archetype. I believe every woman is a warrior; a peaceful one, usually, but each of us has to heal those we love, nurture them, protect them, just as Inca does on a larger canvas within her world. It is my hope you enjoy Book 2 of the "Heart" series. Stay tuned for Book 3, Heart of Stone, Maya's story, which will be coming out in March, 2001. Please let me know if you enjoyed Inca's story. I love to hear from my readers. Warmly, Lindsay McKenna

Summary: Really Great!
Review: Inca has been one of my favorite characters from past Morgans Mercenaries. She has always been so mysterious and powerful. I was hoping as we got to know her, she wouldn't lose that mystique. ALL'S WELL! Inca and Roan both walked a fine line between power and emotion. They were a fantastically well matched pair. The only way to describe these two is, PASSIONATE, STRONG, AND DETERMINED! The mission to destroy drug labs in the amazon basin was definitely only a mild diversion. Even the bad blood between the Colonel leading the mission and Inca (their guide), barely caused a ripple. The focus is firmly on Inca and Roan just as it should be. This story is more 'mystical' than the previous Morgans Mercenaries. Some people may not enjoy that as much but it was perfect for a story about Inca. TERRIFIC!

Summary: Finally! Inca's Story!
Review: Ms. McKenna has at last granted her readers of the Morgan's Mercenaries stories the intriguing Inca's story! If you've followed the stories of Morgan Trayhern's warrior men and women of Perseus, you will be familiar with Inca, the Jaguar Goddess of the Jaguar Clan of the Amazon jungle. Inca has made an appearance in many of these stories, both as a warrior woman and healer. Morgan Trayhern must send one of his mercenaries to Brazil to help the local military find their way through the jungle to take out the compound of a major drug lord. The only person who can lead these men safely through the jungle is Inca, and she is being actively sought by the commander of these men, Colonel Marcellino, to be shot on sight for what he believes was the murder of his eldest son. Trayhern enlists the help of Roan Storm Walker, a lone Native American warrior, who is the only person he knows who can work as a liaison between the guide Inca and Colonel Marcellino to get the job done. Thus begins a treacherous journey for Roan Storm Walker and Inca. This is a very exciting story with non-stop action. Inca is a proud and skillful warrior, but she is also an innocent and beautiful woman. She has a lot to teach Roan Storm Walker, but a lot to learn about the feelings that can grow between a man and a woman. I loved the development of love between these two very special people. I also discovered quite an education in this book on the plight of the rain forest and its native people from the greed and destruction wrought by drug lords, loggers and miners, and on the beliefs of the people of Peru in their Jaguar Clan of healers and medicine men and women. This was a fascinating story on many levels and I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Awesome
Review: This book is awesome. A great combination of elements of a romance, a thriller and the mystical. It's great to read about women's power traditions being honored, as well as those of the america's indigenous peoples, without being preachy. The love scenes with Inca and Roan sizzle, and Lindsay writes convincingly about healing, telepathy, teleportation and other fascinating subjects. Great to see a couple of immortals making an appearance as well. Keep up the good work, Lindsay, you're helping to raise our consciousness.
