Romance Suspense

Morton "Jacko" Jackman, a former Navy SEAL sniper, and now part of Alpha Security International, has no fears. Nothing! Until he comes face to face with Lauren Dare ... she scares him speechless. He just knows this gorgeous woman wouldn't look at him without seeing all the rough edges, so he has loved her in secret. When he finds she is in danger nothing in this world will stop him from keeping her safe, even if it means committing a little MIDNIGHT VENGEANCE of his own.

Lauren Dare has been living a lie, but has allowed herself to become entrenched in her new Portland home. But she can't stay if she does all those who have become important could be placed in danger. The drugged up pycho has killed twice trying to get to her she's not about to let anything happen to her friends. She just wants to indulge in one night with the man of her dreams ... Jacko.

She doesn't believe it when Jacko gives her everything she ever dreams up plus refusing to let her run again. He is more than willing to put his life on the line ...but he won't be alone in the quest for her safety. Her friends and his will do everything in their power. Is there a real chance she could be free? Free to live? Free to love?

MIDNIGHT VENGEANCE is an action packed thrill ride. Author Lisa Marie Rice writes in a way that throws you right into the heart of the storyline and you can only hold on to the edge of your seat and enjoy. Jacko and Lauren are a couple who should not fit but they are perfect because they seem to have a deep and meaningful understanding of each other and of course are very good at burning up the sheets together. The supporting cast and crew is intriguing in their own right as friends and co-workers who will do everything in their power for each other and those they care about. I loved that the bossman says if she is his (meaning Jacko's) then she is theirs too. The ending of MIDNIGHT VENGEANCE gives a hint of the next one and I cannot wait to get my hands on it. This one is definitely going on my TRA (to read again) shelf.

SUMMARY

Morton "Jacko" Jackman isn't afraid of anything. He's a former Navy SEAL sniper, and he's been in more firefights than most people have had hot meals. Lauren Dare scares the crap out of him.

Gorgeous, talented and refined, she's the type of woman who could never be interested in a roughneck like him. So he's loved her fiercely in secret, taken her art classes, and kept a watchful but comfortable distance. Until now.

Lauren had finally found a home in Portland, far from her real identity, far from the memories of her mother's death, and outside the reaches of the drugged-out psycho who's already tried to kill her twice. One tiny misstep—a single photograph—has shattered it all. She has no choice but to run again, but this time she'll give herself a proper farewell: one night with Jacko.

Their highly charged emotional encounter changes everything. In Jacko's arms there cannot be fear, there can only be pleasure. Anyone wishing her harm will have to pass through him, and Jacko is a hard man to kill.
