With: Incy Black
Fall seven times, get up eight. For me, this wonderful Japanese proverb encompasses
the reasons I love reading romantic suspense. For, no matter how punch-drunk
the hero and/or heroine are by what’s thrown at them, they never surrender. Not
to their foes, not to the obstacles they must hurdle to survive, not to
whatever it is that’s got them all twisted up in their past, not to the complications
besetting them as they fall in love. And it’s this resilience, this indomitable
spirit, which goes to a richness of character and keeps me reading forward.

Will left it until
mid-morning before ordering Angel to the kitchen, his mother the very unhappy
messenger.
Two angry women whose good graces he
had to inveigle his way back into—bloody marvelous.
Two
angry women, who would not be angry if they’d just hit bloody pause and take
one goddamn moment to consider things from his perspective.
Him
flying blind, his neck tucked between his thighs, head angled to kiss his own
backside good-bye. Angel to keep safe, a crisis that could tear apart the
nation’s armed forces to avert, the Service doing fuck knows what. Rhys’s body
to recover without detection. A convincing legend to plant which would keep the
man very much alive in the eyes of the MoD and Service and threatening exposure
should an “accident” before his sister—
Worrying
about the possibility of Angel needing institutionalizing. Worrying if she
didn’t, because those bastards in the MoD would want her blood stripped so they
could reverse engineer it to get the new BT11 formula. The VIPs he’d likely
have to cap to stop that happening. Lies, lies, and more lies to be woven and
knotted if this whole nightmare was just. To. Stop—
Jesus,
a little leeway—was that really too much to ask?
And
then there’s the happy-ever-after, the winning, the standing back up
again—stronger, emboldened, optimistic, in love and no longer alone. Seriously,
what’s not to like about romantic suspense?
Volcanic
hot and ambitious Special Agent Will Berwick doesn’t give a damn what his
orders are; he’s not taking the enemy—the lovely but arctic Dr. Angel
Treherne—to bed. Oh, he’ll root out her secrets, but on his own terms.
Caught
up in a tangled web of deceit and betrayal, Angel trusts no one—certainly not
alpha-cocky, cunning Will Berwick. First he’s hostile, then he’s charming. Why?
What’s he hiding? With her life on the line, she needs to know. Preferably
without losing her heart in the process.

About the author:
To
escape the frenzy of three children aged under 4 years, two mad dogs and four
very odd cats, Incy committed to a law degree (University College, London),
first to piss off those who said she didn’t stand a chance, and second, because
she’s never learned to walk a hill when there are mountains to be climbed.
When not fighting injustice and righting
wrongs on ‘Planet Incy’ via her love of writing romantic action adventures, she
works as a Marketing Director…also cook, cleaner and homemaker.
Living in the UK’s West Country, her (now
five) children are well versed in what scares her (most things) and delight in
pushing her neurotic buttons—at their peril.

One of the best books of the year so far for me!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loved this book. Incy has a way of dragging you back into her world, but you're not dragged kicking and screaming, you go willingly. I cannot wait for more!

ReplyDeleteThis is such a great story and well worth the wait. Incy has a way of creating addictive characters and you end up totally immersed into her world. Highly recommended and cant wait for the next one.
