Mecenary romance with suspense (of course). Quick read. Strong characters. ( )

3rd of the trilogy; another love story but seems eclypsed by the romantic suspense. the female character; a descent read but not very moving. ( )

And Able, the conclusion of mercenary trio series was sensual, sensitive, steamy and full of Southern charm. Lucy Monroe has yet again penned a very powerful book which portrays two characters that have been drawn to each other for a long time. Claire Sharpe, smart, witty and full of sass is a loner due to loosing her father and mother at a young age, under difficult circumstances.

Brett Adams has been raised in a “charmed‿ life but is the families back sheep. Instead of becoming the lawyer, he leaves home after high school graduation and joins the army as a Ranger, then a government agency and is an ex-mercenary. He and his partners are for hire of the cause is worthy and the price right. Brett has only loved once and she died putting her country first over their love. Brett makes a silent promise never to fall in love over her grave.

Well life plays strange tricks on people. At his partner’s wedding, he feels lust for Claire and she feels the same. Circumstances bring them together again as Brett feels the need to protect Claire when a close friend of hers is murdered and her home is searched and her life threatened.

Their journey and in finding each other, falling in love will just plain take your breath away. Their attraction for each other, their love making, and the feelings swirling around them plus the thrill of danger is a very powerful story and again, Lucy brings her readers to their knees.

I’m sorry to see Wolf, Nitro and Hotwire leave plus the women they’re fallen in love with but a happy ending none the less. Thanks Lucy for this wonderful series. ( )
