Lori Handeland pens another winner in the Luchetti
Brothers series, with this, the story of Bobby. Bobby is missing in action, possibly dead, as far as his
family knows. He's a member of US Special Forces and has
been deep undercover for several months. He's about due
for leave when he finds out the woman he'd been writing
letters to... the woman he loves... has married his
brother.
When a new mission comes up for a solo operation into
Mexico to rescue a kidnapped doctor, he jumps on it. Dr. Jane Harker is deep in the heart of Mexico, practicing
medicine in one of the poverty stricken towns. She
couldn't be happier with her life until the day a big
burly man claiming to be there to rescue her, sneaks in to
her bedroom and saves her just as someone tries to murder
her. Now they must journey across Mexico, on to Washington, DC
and finally to the Luchetti Farm in Illinois. As they try
to get to the bottom of the mystery and keep Jane alive,
neither counted on the all-engrossing love that would
spring up between them changing them both forever. The mystery weaving through the story will keep one
guessing through the end. There are enough twists to the
plot that when the mystery is solved, the reader will be
surprised at who is guilty. It's obvious the author did
her homework when researching how the military works,
especially Special Forces. A Soldier's Quest is packed
with action/adventure, suspense and romance. Bobby is nursing his broken heart when he meets Jane
therefore the attraction between them shocks him. Jane was
happy, in spite of her overbearing mother, a US Senator
and perfectly content to live in the middle of Mexico
giving medical aid. She has no plans to do anything
differently until Bobby saunters in to her life. The love
that develops between them changes their lives forever. This reviewer has been eagerly awaiting Bobby's story and
was more than pleased by A Soldier's Quest. Readers have
learned so much about Bobby from his family in previous
books that they already feel like they know him. When he
is finally reunited with his family, the emotions overflow
from the pages and right in to the hearts of the readers.
Fans of this series will love the opportunity to visit
with the large Luchetti family once again, but will be sad
at the same time, as they realize there is only one more
story left to tell, that of Dean, oldest of the brothers. If one is looking for a full rich story, with lovable
characters and a swift moving plot, this latest one the
Luchetti Brothers saga will satisfy. © Kelley A. Hartsell, August 2005. All rights reserved.
