Carson Adair didn't know he had a half-brother until his
father was murdered. He met Ruby, his dad's first wife and
the mother of Jackson Adair, at the reading of his
father's
will. Jackson had been kidnapped as an infant. That had
been the downfall of the marriage and the reason Reginald
Adair had become such a harsh man. He and Carson had
butted
heads all of Carson's life. That's the reason Carson went
into the Marines. But now he is home, after a special ops
mission went awry, and Carson was wounded too badly to
return to active duty.
Georgia Mason, Ruby's step-daughter, comes to San Diego
with Ruby to support her during this ordeal. Ruby is
included in Reginald's will and receives a sizable
inheritance. Ruby has talked all her life about how bad
the
Adairs were and turned Georgia against people who were
wealthy. The Adairs' telecommunications company, AdAir
Corp, is worth billions.
Several questions surround Reginald Adair's murder. His
current wife, and mother of Carson and two other siblings,
is suspected of the murder, but she's left the country.
And now the question rises again as to who kidnapped
Jackson and if he could still be alive. Georgia and Carson
team up to find answers to these questions, but as they
do,
someone is determined to kill Carson as well. Is it
related
to Reginald's murder, or is it related to his failed
special ops mission? Can Carson convince Georgia that all
Adairs are not wealthy snobs?
Jennifer Morey brings us the first book in the new Adair
Affairs series with A MARINE'S TEMPTATION, and introduces
us to a plethora of characters for future installments.
Carson and Georgia, our hero and heroine, are both strong
characters and butt heads on numerous occasions. Yet there
is a strong attraction between them that neither is sure
they want to act upon. The plot moves at a very fast pace,
and there never is a good stopping point for putting THE
MARINE'S TEMPTATION down. You will be captured in this
story right away
and won't be able to get out. THE MARINE'S TEMPTATION is a
story about rebellion
and running away from yourself, about people not always
being who they appear to be on the surface. Can you be
rich
and be normal at the same time? That question plagues
Georgia. The pages are also filled with fashion, beautiful
dresses and accessories that will have you gals drooling.
This proves to be an interesting series!
Shocking discoveries rock the Adairs…and a determined
librarian can't help falling for one of this dynasty's
rugged heroes!
It's true that money can't buy happiness. Librarian
Georgia Mason has seen one wealthy Adair ruin her
stepmother's life and swears she won't get involved with
his son Carson. So what if he's a hot former special ops
soldier who showers her with extravagant gifts? But he is
the sexiest man she's ever met and it's hard to hate him
for searching for his long-lost stepbrother, or tracking
down the traitor behind his botched mission. And when
Georgia faces life-threatening danger, Carson protects
her, igniting their scorching passion. Maybe love of money
isn't the root of all evil. Maybe there's more to Carson
to trust, respect…and love.
