T. C. Archer

I gave this 2 stars because it was just a ho hum book. While it has potential and I adored the plot of it, I think it could've been better as a full book instead of a novella, where more details and backstory could've been added. But with this book I was pretty much bored through it all, and it's only 25 pages. The sex scene was pretty tame compared to some of the books I have read that belong into the erotica genre. Usually when reading erotica your blood heats up and your temperature rises. But this book while it ended with a happy ending, it just left me feeling cold.… (més)

Okay I admit it; I judge a book by the cover and the description. I always have. One or the other will make me want to read/buy the book. I have even purchased a book based on the cover or title. I know it is bad the cover or title never gives the full story about what might be inside the book. For me, the blurb on the front had reeled me in hook, line and sinker. I am like what better way to sum up a book in two sentences with 12 words. What would be more interesting than reading about a woman that truly has a license to kill and the man sent to kill her. I jumped at the chance to read this book. Granted, I have read books by TC Archer in the past so I knew I enjoyed the authors writing. If you like, romance books with a little something extra like, mystery, suspense and kick-ass actions then I highly recommend this one. You will not be disappointed.

I wondered after reading this book how much research the authors completed. I admit to not knowing anything about military life. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. I have lived my whole life within a few miles of a major army base. However, I could not tell you the difference in a general or a private by looking at their uniform. I know even less about any team of special ops. While reading that old song ‘The Ballard of the Green Beret’ by SSgt Barry Sandler kept coming to my mind. Only the best is allowed in special ops.

The book is filled with lots of action, mystery, and suspense from the first page to the end. There are a few sex scenes. If reading about killing or drugs is not your taste then I do advise that you might not like this book. However, remember that there is more action/suspense than anything else in this book.

The authors wrote a book that will take you one a whirlwind traveling spree. Readers will go from the Columbian jungle, to several different areas in the US back to the Columbian jungle. Where a member on the special ops team is either a traitor or has been set up by a co-worker. Which one is anybody’s guess? No sorry I will not give that spoiler away.

Thanks for another great read TC.

The bunnies and I give this book 4 carrots.… (més)

I love that saying "when opposites attract" its even more great when you add that to Tc's Full Throttle. Nascar, hot tempers, suspense and even hotter attraction are a great combination for this book.
Gail "Jimmy" James and Rex Henderson are fantastic, instant chemistry even through the determination of both of them to avoid each other.
Jimmy James the first female mechanic starts to realize that Rex Henderson is nothing like the driver she thought she knew. When mysterious incidents start happening suspicions begin to rise.
I really enjoyed the steady build of suspense and mystery in Full Throttle, I honestly think this is the best book I've read by T.C. yet.… (més)

While on a Recon mission to rescue the daughter of a U.S. Senator deep in the bowls of Columbia, Jesse Evan's informant is murdered in what she comes to realize is an ambush, meaning the mission and the team sent to rescue the girl has been compromised. When she tries to notify her superior, everything goes horribly wrong. Now she finds herself on the other side of the law, branded a sell out, a traitor and a risk to National Security. Somehow she manages to make it back to the States where she vows to bring the real traitor, Green Leader Robert Langdon, down. That may sound like a good idea, but it's a difficult task when you're alone and can trust no one. Then help arrives in the form of a handsome Texan named Cole. But is he who he really says he is?

This was one action-packed read, and I loved every second of it. I only put it down once because something known as asleep got in the way of finishing it off in one sitting. From beginning to end, the pages are filled with action, conspiracy, lust, deceit, a drug lord and bullets flying all over the place. Jesse Evans is literally a kick a** heroine. She's Emma Peel, Evelyn Salt and a little bit of James Bond rolled up in one. In full mission mode, she can keep up with any alpha male, but on the inside she tends to let her emotions rule her and her actions. Her only family left is her autistic sister, Amanda, and she will go to any length to keep her safe. Aside from being tired of being and feeling alone, Amanda is probably Jesse's only weakness.

Cole is one of the wildcards in this story. He was Green Team Leader, and he's the lone survivor of the Green Team massacre. He saves Jesse's butt a few times, but is sincere or just a ploy to gain her trust? Throughout the entire story I went back and forth on that question about as often as Jesse did, and seeing as the entire story is told from her perspective we can only build a picture of the players as she finds them out for herself. Talk about nerve-wracking.

Jesse and Cole have instant chemistry that is only hindered by Jesse's distrust and Cole's attempts to make her trust him even when his actions and words appear shady. That still doesn't stop them from heating up the pages whenever they're in close proximity. However this book contains more suspense than romance. The sexual tension lasts well past three quarters of the story before the inevitable happens, and it's one time only. As for the plot, you don't get the big picture until the very end, but the journey there was worth every page.

A couple spelling/grammar mistakes, but nothing that really interrupted the flow of the story, so I highly recommend this book.… (més)
