"Powerful and exciting"

Tania Holzknecht is in dire straights. Her life and the lives of her two children, Tessa and Margot are hanging in the balance, and only one man can save them, the roguish, sexy C.I.A. agent, Bart Matthews.

When Tania testified against her husband, Karl Holzknecht, at his trial and branded him as the most wanted assassin alive, she knew she was signing her own death warrant should Karl ever escape the Morrocan prison he was sent to. Karl had taught her with exacting patience and cruel skill how helpless she could be against him, and how easily he could exact his vengeance.

Now, back in the states, under the protection of Interpol, Tania realizes that payment time is here. Karl has escaped, and the C.I.A. is now in charge of her and her daughter's safety. Tania will go along with them, but she knows that come the end of this charade, either she or Karl will have to die, and Tania is determined it won't be she.

Standing in her way is Bart Matthews, the C.I.A. agent ordered to bring him in alive. His attraction to Tania could endanger all their lives, his respect for her courage and strength could endanger his heart.

A powerful, exciting fast paced, action suspense with a devilishly handsome agent, a strong heroine, and a sensual attraction between the two that raises your blood pressure. The interplay between the characters was exceptional. Bart's rogue status within the C.I.A. pits him against his Rolaid popping boss, Joe Harold, in several more than amusing encounters as Joe fights to keep up with Bart, and keep hold of the quickly escaping reins that control the hard-headed agent. Add to the mix a geeky computer agent, and a muscle bound bodyguard when Tania and Bart set out to create the illusion of a marriage to draw Karl out, and you have an amazingly well rounded, intriguing tale you won't be able to lay down.

TIL DEATH DO US PART is one of the best books I've read this year. The author has a blended quality of writing; sensuality, suspenseful action and an amazing in-depth plot that keeps you guessing throughout the entire story, until the ending leaves you gasping, your hand at your throat in fear as Tania finally faces the monster she betrayed.

This is a story you don't want to miss. One you'll revisit time and again just for the amazing quality of the in-depth emotion and excellent writing style the author has displayed. Run, don't walk to RFI and order this book to begin an adventure, a romance, a run into the treacherous waters of sensuality, deceit and deception that will leave you gasping.
