Mackenzie's Mission 4 Stars Navy SEAL Zane Mackenzie is accustomed to dangerous missions, but his current assignment, rescuing Barrie Lovejoy, the daughter of a United States Ambassador, is turning out to be far more critical and personal because Barrie has come to mean everything to him. Zane can only hope that the feeling is mutual… Linda Howard’s books, in general, and the adventures of the Mackenzie family, have been a highlight of my 2015 reading year. Although Barrie and Zane’s story isn’t exactly a literary masterpiece, it is a fun read for when one is in the mood for some lighter fare. Like his father and siblings, Zane’s gorgeous facade conceals a darker side. His experiences as a Navy SEAL have exposed him to the dangerous face of humanity and it has made him rather cynical. Barrie’s sweet innocence brings out the protector in him, but that isn’t to say she is mild or meek. She faces the circumstances of her abduction with a strength and courage that one does not expect from the spoiled and pampered daughter of a diplomat. Zane and Barrie’s romance is somewhat unrealistic given not only the situation in which they are in (on the run from terrorists in Libya), but also their backgrounds and personalities. Nevertheless, it works mainly due to Barrie’s openness and Zane’s possessiveness. While the first half of the book focuses on Zane and Barrie’s intense and steamy relationship, the second revolves around the mystery of her kidnapping and exposing those behind. This is the weaker aspect of the story as the explanation is underdeveloped and contrived. That said, the climax and resolution are action packed and exciting. All in all, a sweet romance and the updates on the other Mackenzie’s are an added bonus. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Navy SEAL Zane Mackenzie was a pro. No mission had ever gotten the better of him -- until now. Saving the ambassador's gorgeous daughter, Barrie Lovejoy, had been textbook -- except for their desperate night of passion. And though his job as a soldier had ended with her freedom, his duties as a husband had only just begun. For he would sooner die than let the enemy harm the mother of his child.

I mean, I really liked this book, even though Instalove bugs the fuck out of me. It's just really lazy. I mean, it's a romance novel, yeah? I know it's going to end with the couple in love, so what I want is the journey to the Iwhy they end up in love, but she puts the cart before the horse and I just can't understand it.
Anyway, that's a lot of complaining for a book I did actually like, but like most of Howard's stuff, even when I'm kind of annoyed, I just can't stop reading ? ( )
