3.0 Stars. Public Library 11/2/14. Mac and Delilah's story. In the previous story Delilah found out what the Black Knights really do so when her uncle goes missing she turns to them for help. Delilah is always a delight no matter the situation and the trouble her family finds itself in isn't a disappointment. We finally learn the reasons why Mac was let go of the FBI and what he has against Delilah. While Delilah gets more interesting Mac turns out to be anti-climatic. I'd explain his issues and why he's been avoiding Delilah for years but it would spoil the revel and Delilah sums it up beautiful in two words... Relationship wise this is my least favorite book action and mystery wise it holds it own. Another plus was that Ghost an Ali pop up briefly so we get to see how they've been doing! This book gets 2,5 stars from me. And why such a low score for a story, that has such a great plot, lots of action, thriller, agonizing, yet passionate romance, and more than a hand full of alpha men solving the mystery?!The constant, non-stop, rumbling inner reflections of the whole cast of characters, is not only dulling the sharp edge of the action, making the characters look and sound very immature and unprofessional, it is boring. Have you ever thought "frickin' frackin' terrorist" in your mind? And would you do it in a life or death situation while one the worlds most dangerous and evil terrorist is hunting for you? No, I didn't think so.The cast, in the middle of this supposed dangerous situation, are looking at, thinking of, and/or lusting after each others constantly, on every page, invariably. Okay, I got it, they want each other, no need to write another three pages about his/her body parts! Instead of constant details of the lust for each other, why not write more details of the terror, the action, even the relationship when it finally starts. All that is just skimmed over and rushed up,The alpha males, the heroes who have fought wars, been agents, solved the most dangerous puzzles in the world, are turned into a crying, hesitant, insecure men, with mommy issues. I understand making them human and flowed, yes please. But these men don't sound or act like they got everything together at all.So yes, even with all the potential this story had, from me, it was a bit bland tale, so 2,5 stars.
What do You think about Hell For Leather (2014)?
I enjoyed the characters this one followed more than in some of the others.
