The rest is good romantic suspense, but the woman’s brutal trek is awesome! ( ) Romantic suspense done right. This was super slow burn. I loved the heroine best but the hero was a very close second. The attraction between them was super hot and believable. The training and missions and build to the climax was riveting. There wasn’t a slow moment in the whole book. There were no too stupid to live moments. Both the hero and the heroine were professional throughout. The plot fit together well and I didn’t find any holes. The romance element of the book was definitely there and satisfying but not overwhelming if you’re not a super romance fan. Highly recommend. Felt a bit disjointed at the end and rushed compared to the rest of the book but otherwise a good read. I loved Jina’s character and how tough she was, both mentally and eventually physically. That being said, I found Levi’s character wasn’t as well developed as I would have liked and he was a bit boring as the leading male. Jina Modell is a support member of Axel MacNamara's Go-Team unit until MacNamara decides to put selected members of his support staff out in the field with his teams to operate drones that will provide more on the spot intel about their surroundings. Jina becomes the only woman placed on a team. Ace's team is one of the best, and Jina is determined not to give up as she faces challenge after challenge in order to become field-ready. Howard enhances the story with a very vivid description of Jina's struggles with parachute jumping. Things become even more difficult as Jina, known as Babe by her team, and Ace, whose real name is Levi, develop an almost insurmountable attraction to one another. The Woman Left Behind is truly vintage Linda Howard. The struggle the two main characters had in keeping their attraction hidden was only a small part of what made this an engrossing novel. Jina's desire to prove herself felt very real as did her fear of many of the situations in which she was placed. My only complaint about the book was that the ending felt both too short and too long. So much of the underlying story about MacNamara and Congresswoman Joan Kingsley had to be explained and resolved that it took away from the main story, but otherwise this was a terrific book, one of Linda Howard's best in recent years.

Jina Modell definitely doesn't feel like a "Babe," especially when she's working with the gruff, no-nonsense Levi Butcher, team leader for the GO-Team. When the base where she's stationed is attacked, Jina manages to escape. Levi would never willingly leave a soldier behind, especially a brave woman whose sweet voice haunts his every thought. Once he discovers Jina is alive, the tenacious warrior will walk into fire to save this intriguing woman who has captured his heart. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
