It reminded me a little of her book Heart of Fire because she's reusing the jungle setting but you can tell she had grown as a writer from her early books, the woman is on a more even playing field with the guy and I love it. Can she tame the all consuming bad boy? Time will tell, but only if they can get out of the jungle in one piece. Danger is high, drama is abound, and romance is in the air. Fortunately for Grant, Jane can hold her own and she isn't some princess scared of danger but she is scared of the dark and snakes, as it turns out. They begin their dangerous journey through the jungle with limited rations at a blistering pace, with a woman who won't stop asking questions. They tussle and he comes out ahead and ends up hauling her ass out of there himself.

Easy peasy.Įxcept it isn't because just as he goes to get her, turns out Jane was going to bust out on her own. All he has to do is slip in, grab her, get her home to her parents. He gets handed a case to rescue and return Jane from the hands of a bad guy. So we have Grant who is technically retired but has an itch for danger and can't quite walk away. I could not have asked for more of this book, I really couldn't. Taken captive in the middle of a conspiracy of international proportions, wealthy socialite Jane. It has a super tough, ex-military hero, a woman in trouble who isn't quite a damsel in distress, a hasty getaway and danger. Buy a cheap copy of Midnight Rainbow book by Linda Howard.

You guys, this is everything that I love about Linda Howard.

In the time they spent together, questions of guilt and innocence began to fade against the undeniable reality that two people from such different worlds should never have met. Grant Sullivan had been one of the government's most effective agents, and he's agreed to rescue Jane Hamilton Greer, a wealthy socialite possibly engaged in espionage.
