Summary: Excellent start of a new series
Review: Sharon Sala begins a new sub-series to the Intimate Moments line with Mission: Irresistible. In this installment, ex-SPEAR agent, Easton Kirby is compelled to assist Agent Alicia Corbin in her endeavor to save the head of the SPEAR organization whom no one has ever seen and very few should know about. Jonah, as he is called, is actually a series of men who adopt the name and the accompanying anonymity. This particular Jonah finds himself being threatened by someone who knows of his existence and knows his identity. He sends Alicia to persuade East to assume an active status. East is very reluctant to do so and though the guilt sits heavily upon him, he refuses to assist until his son is kidnapped. For the sake of his son, he will get involved and help Jonah along the way.Sala gives a good and steady start to this new series: A Year of Loving Dangerously. Alicia is a strong and dedicated agent who is also terribly naive when it comes to matters of the heart. But her instincts are right on the mark when it comes to deducing, rather quickly, that Easton Kirby will mean more to her than she could ever imagine. East finds himself falling fast, and irrevocably, in love with the woman who is determined to help him save his son as well as Jonah. Though the book spans a very short amount of time, consistent interaction between East and Alicia kept the relationship between the two moving progressively and this, I thought, was very admirable considering the time constraint when it came to saving East's son. I look forward to pursuing this series because it has an interesting premise which doesn't directly involve the main characters in each story but results, indirectly, in bringing them together.

Summary: Good beginning
Review: Sharon Sala gets the Year of Living Dangerously off to a good start in Mission: Irresistible. I loved East and I eventually came to like Alicia, even if she was another stunningly beautiful model-type whose also a genius. Guess we can't have a plain genius heroine. The beginning was a little slow but I didn't care because I enjoyed the characters so much. Ms. Sala did a great job setting up the SPEAR agency. This book is the only one of the SPEAR books I've read so far to take advantage of all the Mission: Impossible-type possibilities this series offers. I thought the whole idea of the van was great. This was a good beginning that left me wanting to read more of the series.

Summary: Enjoyable read
Review: This is a good book, not great, but very enjoyable, fast-paced, and it certainly kept my attention throughout. Based on this first entry in the mini-series "The Year of Loving Dangerously," I'm looking forward to the rest.
