FLASH FIRE (Civilian Personnel Recovery Unit #2)
by Dana Marton
My Review
I just love this series Ms. Marton spins another outstanding read of danger, action, thrills, heartbreak, mystery in this fast pace action thriller. She takes us back to the jungle where Clara is ending her assignment only to get a call from a love one with a heartbreaking tale that will break her heart. She takes on this assignment out of love to the two most important people in her life. She isn't happy about it but love makes you do many things you do not want to. To top that off she has to work with the crazy mercenary who has a death wish and has an agenda of his own. These two hit head on as sparks fly leaving Clara wondering if her father is nuts for setting her up with such a fruitcake. There is something to say when a book starts out with a man waking up with a scorpion in his pants next to his most personal parts. I had to laugh as my mouth went into O....as I shook my head thinking this can't be good.
Clare always gets her person they might not always come out a live but she always brings them home. American teenager disappears abroad Clare finds herself in more danger trying to put the pieces together to help find a teen. The pieces just do not fit as they go through the pace of finding out just where this teen might be and if she is dead or alive. Clare is a strong willed bullheaded woman that does not give up easy. It seems Light Walker is more interested in sending her back to the USA which she is having nothing to do with. He shows her a wild reckless side she isn't to crazy about. As she finds out more about him and his death wish for revenge she takes on the tacks of keeping him alive if she can only stay alive herself.
Light Walker is on a mission of his own and the flighty Clare is not only getting in his way but going to end of dead if she isn't careful. He has enough on his plate with all his plans falling into place. Now he has to keep her alive take care of the issues as hand as he runs with the big boys in drug running plotting gang against each other which is about to come to ahead and most likely will leave him dead. He must make a choice revenge and most likely death or Clare who seems to be growing on him.
The surprises Ms. Marton throws in will have your brain twisted trying to work out this mystery. She throws you curves, hot tempters, passion as she brings you to the edge with danger, mystery and lies. You get to meet some very seedy characters who do not know which end is up as Walker runs into one trouble after another with Clara usually in the middle of it. She is worse than a dog with a bone when she is on the hunt. Light Walker drags her to questionable places as he tries to show her the best place for her is at home. She isn't into putting her tail between her legs and running unless of course someone has a gun pointed at her than she is all into running her legs off in the other direction. This is one book full of danger as the author keeps you laughing from one mishap to another. Where ever Walker goes there are usually dead bodies when he leaves, leaving Clara in shock at how easy he can take a life. Yep this is one nutty, crazy mercenary. Clara decides she might be better off on her own but Walker isn't having any of that. You do not want to miss watching the sparks fly between these to wonderful characters in this action pack thrilling read..
I love these characters even the drug runners who aren't too smart are pretty cool. I totally enjoyed the action scenes and loved the blowing up parts. Dana paints a picture that you can almost see in your mind. I have been hook on this authors from first book that I picked up. She is my go to author for everything I want in a story. I cannot wait to see the next book she pulls out of that wonderful mind of hers.
If you enjoy books by Nora Roberts, Linda Howard, Cindy Gerard, or Anne Stuart you will love Ms. Marton's books. I highly recommend any book this author writes she always gives you entertainment at its finest with her action pack reads filled with danger, mystery, love as she worms her way into your heart. She is my go to author for smiles, laughs as she pulls me into a fast pace plot where things usually blow up or lots of gun fire usually with a little heartbreak as she spins a tale and sparks fly as trouble comes knocking on their door.
