Captain Jordan Malone has been the silent, sexy warrior and
guardian, operating his loyal team of Elite Ops agents to
fight terror at all costs. He has worked closely with his
team for the past six years. Now the team has been
dismantled, a new danger is lurking in the shadows. One
thought to be long dead, and a serious danger to the one
person Jordan has not been able to get out of his head,
Tehya Talamosi.
Jordan's training has taught him to never make friends with
those you could lose. So he has hardened himself to push
everyone away. He has convinced himself that love will never
be possible, it is just an illusion. Working along side of
Tehya, has been pure agony. Having to ignore his feelings
for her has been his own hell. The last night before
everyone leaves the Elite Ops compound, Jordan gives in to
his lust and takes Tehya to her bed. The night ends in
disaster and Tehya is gone before Jordan has a chance to
talk to her.
Tehya Talamosi has been running her entire life. As a
child, Tehya's mother has ran with her, so she would not
have the life she had. But when Sorrel, her white slaver
father had gotten close, everyone she has ever loved and
cared for ends up tortured and dead. When she joined the
Elite Ops, Tehya had stood up and fought back. Which ended
up in the death of her father, and her apparent death.
Eight months after the dismantle of the Elite Ops, living
under a different name and assumed life, Tehya begins to
build a life for herself in Hagerstown, Maryland. She has
her own home, a business, and is secretly watching over her
cousin Journey. Although Journey doesn't know she is the
long lost niece of the family. For once in Tehya's life, she
is almost happy. But then Jordan shows up in the middle of
the night and she knows her tiny bit of happiness will soon
be shattered.
Jordan intercepts a communication of someone who has
identified and located Tehya's new existence. Jordan
assembles a team together and rushes to Hagerstown to keep
her safe, but Tehya is not ready to be on the run again.
As the pair take a stand again the threat against Tehya, the
attraction for one another that lead to their last night
together comes rushing back to them. Before they realize it,
their feelings are already too strong to ignore. All Tehya
can think about is will she be able to survive the
heartbreak that she believes is coming once she is out of
danger. Jordan already knows he can not walk away from
Tehya, but what he hasn't yet realized is how much of his
heart he has already given her.
I really enjoyed LIVE WIRE. Although it is the sixth in the
series, it can also be a stand alone as well. I had no
trouble following the story line and just loved the
characters. Tehya is an intelligent, hard working woman
able to stand on her own two feet. Her only weakness was
Jordan. Jordan was exactly what I expected of the hardened
military career man that lost his mother, and others close
to him. Feeling that he has to hide behind a stone cold
heart in order to protect himself. The rest of the
characters are just as well loved as these two are. I can't
wait to see what Lora Leigh comes out with next.
Meet Captain Jordan Malone. For years he has been a silent
warrior and guardian, operating independent of government
protocol or oversight, leading his loyal team of Elite Ops
agents to fight terror at all costs. A legend in the field,
Jordan's true identity has remained a mystery even to his
own men until now.
Tehya Talamosi, codename Enigma, is a
force to be reckoned with. A woman this striking spells
nothing but trouble for Jordan. Armed with killer
secrets and body to die for, she'll bring Jordan to his
knees as they both take on the most deadly mission they have
ever faced. Because this time, it's personal...
