Yawn. The desk where I work is silent so here's another post while I ward off the Zzzzzzs. This one is on Satisfaction Guaranteed by Lucy Monroe, an author I hadn't read before but will certainly be looking for again. I think this is the start of a series of books called The Goddard Project about a secret, under the radar agency which is actively saving the world, (an over used premise in the romance world) and like I said, I'll definately be looking for the next book.
This book was steamy, well written, and really enjoyable. Ethan Crane is a manly man agent, Beth Whitney is the daughter of the director of the agency and a secretary at headquarters. Mr. Whitney (Whit) contrives a pretty dengerous scenario in order to get Ethan and Beth to hook up, but all goes well and of course, happily ever after ensues. Beth and Ethan go undercover in the house of shady millionaire Prescott, masquerading as a couple. Of course, they wind up falling in love.
The only issue I saw was that Whit, the absentee father, sending his daughter into a mission in order to get her to fall in love seems a little over the top. Couldn't he just have set up a date for the two of them? Or come up with a plan that doesnt put his daughter into the sights of a perverted, arms dealing millionaire?
Other than that I honestly don't have too much to say about this book. I really liked it. There was less story and more relationship development in it than some other books I've read recently, but Beth's character was endearing and Ethan's was hot and likable, the action was believable and suspenseful, and the story was over all well written. Oh, and Prescott, the millionaire guy was really believably sinister, just the right amount of threat to make all of the action worth while.
So definately read this one, I recommend it!
Happy Reading,
Steffie
