Summary: Morgan's Wife
Review: I am a die hard Lindsay McKenna fan and own a great many of her books. I read previous reader reviews of this book and was put off by the subject matter. I do have the whole series. I finally sat down and read the book and was surprised by how much I liked it after I read it. Too be sure, the idea of kidnapping and rape are horrible. The idea of such a terrible thing happening to Laura Treyhern is mind boggling but, bad horrible things do happen to people. The two lovers in this Jim Woodward and Pepper Sinclair. They get off to a bad start but learn to love each other. They have the problems of a dead love of Pepper's that puts off Jim and Jim's undying devotion to Laura that puts off Pepper. To say much more would give away the story. I will say that good triumphs over evil. I would encourage everyone to read this book and the rest of the books in this series.

Summary: :|
Review: I really enjoyed the first books in this highly charged series about Rachel and Chase Trayhern and their three children-Morgan, Noah, and Alyssa. All of the preceding books since than include Morgan and his mercenaries. In this book, however, Lindsay Mckenna brings back Morgan's whole family which I though would be exciting. After everything these beloved characters have been through it was troubling to discover that Lindsay Mckenna planned her next set of books around the kidnapping of Morgan, his wife Laura, and their son Jason.Jim Woodward, who was in Morgan's previous story-Return of a Hero, returns in this book. If you recall in the earlier story he was friends with Laura, but would have liked for there to have been more between them. Jim is disgusted to learn that Laura has been kidnaped and uses his skills at the Pentagon to figure out where she is being hidden. Jim storms into Perseus with the information and is immediately assigned a partner to go rescue Laura. Pepper Sinclair, who first appeared in Wolf Harding's story-Heart of a Wolf, returns to this book. Pepper is a smoke jumper and has enough experience to be a part of this mission. Jim hates the idea of taking Pepper, a woman, along on the mission. Daggers fly between Pepper and Jim, along with a healthy dose of romantic sparks. There are so many obstacles in their way, but most of them they create themselves. It got a bit tiring that Pepper seemed obsessed with her thinking that Jim was in love with Laura when he had obvious feelings towards Pepper. I had a hard time getting into the story of Pepper and Jim. I was extremely disappointed with the authors decision to have such monsterious acts commited against Laura. Those violent acts seemed to overshadow not only the story of Pepper and Jim, but of the earlier love story of Morgan and Laura in Return of a Hero. Laura's devestating story seemed to overshadow everything else. If I had not read the previous stories I might have liked this story more and enjoyed the romantic pairing of Jim and Pepper. I am almost not looking forward to reading the next couple of books about Morgan and his son. Hopefully, I will not be left with such bitter disappointment after reading their stories.

Summary: Synopsis
Review: The Mercenary Anyone called me in for a job, they knew one thing: Jim Woodward worked along. Risking my neck was as natural to me as breathing and I 'd never needed anyone to watch my back. Especially if she was a woman- and hotshot Pepper Sinclair. The Mission If resucing those closest to me meant taking on a partner, then so be it. But Pepper's fearless strength and feminine vulnerability made a man think of other things besides getting the job done.And it could all be lost in this dangerous gamble.
