Did you enjoy Invincible and Lawless by Diana Palmer than
you will love UNTAMED. UNTAMED introduces some new
characters and revisits some beloved ones as well. Diana
Palmer does a great job of making sure you are not kept
in the dark about those characters that have appeared or
starred in previous works so be assured UNTAMED totally
stands on its own merits.
At the outset it looks like there was to be a rather
quick resolve to a years long issue but never
underestimate the mind of Diana Palmer. It's a setup.
Once we are invested in the past of Rourke Stanton and
Clarisse "Tat" Carrington there is simply no way to back
out. UNTAMED is an intriguing page turner that takes you
to their shared past and then brings you back to the
present. Both Stanton and Tat have lived their lives
surrounded with lies and secrets. Stanton works in the
world of merc's and survival. Tat was busy just trying to
manage her life.
As UNTAMED travels on we find the paths of Stanton and
Tat continually intersect over the years -- most often
with Tat in peril and Stanton out to save her once again.
Neither of one them chose safe careers. They both seemed
to thrive in dangerous situations. But Stanton was built
for action and he choose long ago to be Tat protector --
with or without her knowledge or approval.
Stubborn and smart these two just can't catch a break.
Even when it looks like there is a glimmer of hope for
some kind of future for these star crossed lovers it
quickly gets extinguished.
Be prepared for the ride of your life while the lives of
both Tat and Stanton have extreme highs and lows -- like a
roller coaster -- the roller coaster of their lives.
Hopefully at the end of that rocky ride there is hope for
these two intelligent, caring, strong and determined
characters.
Along their voyage we will have the opportunity to meet
some very wonderful friends who become an intrinsic
element of the story. There is a dangerous element
looking to settle an old score. An enemy without scruples
or conscience. An enemy that is really good at blending
in and recognizing weaknesses. Everyone associated with
Tat or Stanton has to be diligent. There is so much at
stake.
UNTAMED by Diana Palmer is a study about the effect lies
and secrets have on peoples lives. Palmer loves to pair
up the most unmatched couples and in UNTAMED she has done
that yet again. Diana Palmer is a firm believer that
opposites attract. She makes it work despite seemingly
unconquerable odds. In UNTAMED definitely brings out the
big guns. Be prepared to be dazzled.

SUMMARY
Stanton Rourke lives life on the edge. The steely mercenary is dangerous in every way…especially to Clarisse Carrington's heart. She and Rourke were playmates as children, but she's not the innocent girl he once knew. When tragedy robbed Clarisse of her entire family, her life was changed forever. Besides, she's a grown woman now, and there are secrets that hold her back from succumbing to her pursuer. As she struggles to keep her distance, sparks as hot as a Texas summer fly between them. But danger is following Clarisse, leaving her no choice but to rely on Rourke, even as the old wounds lying dormant between them flare up again…
