This is another good story in the HOT and Black's Bandits Series. They overlap alot so that's why I mention all the series. Plus Ian Black is in this one alot. I liked him in this possibly more than in the Bandits series. He's snarkier here.
This was a great fantasy romance. Quinn has had a crush (or been in love) with Blade since he became her hero in high school. They drifted apart when he joined the Navy and she went on her own journey to become not only beautiful, but married to a billionaire. She is very unhappy. But when Blade is in her life again, all that love bubbles up along with some very hot desires. Blade is happy to make them happen.
My only dislike is that Quinn didn't want him to use a condom because she was on the pill and hadn't had sex for 6 months. Well the pill is not 100% and you can get pregnant. It also doesn't prevent STDs. Her husband bought sex from prostitutes all during the marriage. So she should have gotten tested before no condoms. I know this is a novel, but she can't know she's 100% safe. Not all women have symptoms of some of the STDs out there; one example is Chlamydia, so you should always get tested before a new partner. Some STDs are permanent, so that was really not a good choice they made.
Aside from that, this is another great romantic thriller. It is more exciting than the usual romantic suspense book. I've really enjoyed all but one of the novels written by this author and even that one was not bad at all.

I never, ever get tired Lynn Raye Harris' "Hot" novels. Each one is unique - a stand-alone Romantic Suspense story packed full of action, adventure, and swoon-worthy moments. They're all part of a larger story arc slowly coming together over time, and it feels like I'm watching a master Quilter piecing together an intricate pattern.I can make out each block clearly and appreciate its beauty alone, or look at it next to other blocks that are meant to complement each other (like the HOT Seals series) in the same section to see a larger picture begin to emerge. And then there's another, larger set of blocks already placed (the Hostile Operations Team books), providing a complimentary background palette. Without the background it's still lovely, but put it all together and you have a masterpiece. (The Needle arts, like Romance novels, have traditionally been - for the most part - women's art: created by women, for women.)The diversity and depth of characters is what keeps me coming back to the HOT books again and again. I can reread these books and find new details about them to enjoy each time."Hot SEAL Target," is a second chance Romantic Suspense tale, but not exactly what most Romance readers might expect from the genre. Those of us who read Romance extensively are probably familiar with Second Chance stories. They usually involve a guy/girl who had a True Love, but made some kind of bad decision or had an epic misunderstanding/betrayal and broke up. Or the star-crossed young lovers tale of accidental misunderstanding, parental interference, things like that. The nice thing about a Harris "Hot" book is that you've never going to get a cliché.Blade/Adam and Quinn's story is full of action, suspense, and adventure (because of COURSE!), but their past is so sweet! It's not the usual angst of High School Love Gone Wrong or anything like that. In a way, their story is more of a natural progression of friends to lovers. It makes perfect sense, and I enjoy that so much more than "instalove".The dynamic between these two is so different than other couples in the "Hot" universe. Maybe that's partly because of the setting - Hong Kong - or maybe it's because we get to see so much more of Ian Black than we ever have before? (Believe me when I say that I am not complaining at all!) Quinn is real sweetheart of a woman, and Blade is a genuinely good person who's always been able to see her beauty, even when he was too young and stupid to love her as more than a friend.There are beautiful messages gently woven into their story that I think many of us need to hear, and more importantly, believe: we are all beautiful on the inside, no matter what we look like on the outside; and no matter what happens in our lives, we deserve to be treated with respect and kindness.You don't have to read other Hot books to enjoy "Target," but you'll get a whole lot more out of it, if you do. There's action and "sizzle," but not quite as much as some of the other "Hot" books. If you like spies with questionable morals, undercover Navy SEALS, second chance love, steamy love scenes, and a touch of Hong Kong Kung-Fu awesomeness, you've definitely come to the right place. Pull up a chair, call in an order from the local Chinese place down the street, pop open a Tsingtao, and make yourself comfortable. You won't want to stop reading once you get started.
