Summary: A wonderful adventure! Highly recommended
Review: Devotion to the woman who treated them as a mother motivates three handsome bachelors to find wives quickly in Eileen Wilks' Tall, Dark, & Eligible miniseries. Ada's experimental treatment is exorbitantly expensive, but they'll do anything to prolong her life. To pay for her treatment, they must fulfill the rules of their trust. Michael has selected the woman he plans to marry as a business proposition, but must go on a rescue mission before they marry. That rescue mission changes everything.Michael does not expect the minister he is rescuing to be a woman. The Reverend Alyssa Kelleher, who prefers the nickname A.J., came to the jungles on a teaching mission to fulfill her late husband's dream. She had put off their missionary trip for three years; coming after her husband was shot down in a senseless convenience store robbery. A.J. refuses rescue unless he also lends aid to the nun with her. Fleeing gunfire, jumping off cliffs and tromping through the jungle provides a bonding experience that neither wanted. Moral and ethical concerns separate them; passion draws them together. And while they might set aside their differences for the sake of survival, return to civilization means a return to enormous challenges. Eileen Wilks' MICHAEL'S TEMPTATION delivers a heart pounding tale of survival against incredible odds. The intensity of the plot serves to underscore the intensity of the connection between A.J. and Michael. These are believable characters that suffer both physical weakness and emotional wounds with grace. MICHAEL'S TEMPTATION is a marvelous read, though it does suffer from the restriction of being a series romance. With so many complex motivations and challenges, many elements deserve far more development than space allows. Nevertheless, MICHAEL'S TEMPTATION comes highly recommended.
