Shadow Hawk
Jill Shalvis
When his latest mission turns into a bloodbath, Agent JT Hawk realises he has been set up by someone at the top. Wounded and on the run, he has no choice but to take beautiful Abby Wells hostage. After all, she's in danger too.
And if the only way to keep the fiercely independent Communications Expert safe is to cuff her and bring her along for the ride, he'll do it. Only, given their close contact, it is not long before Hawk's thinking about a totally different kind of pleasure.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Good story with a very exciting beginning and once the plot was established the characters worked on building their trust all nicely interspersed with a secondary romance. ATF officer Hawk has been setup and wounded on a mission then takes fellow ATF Abby hostage.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So I can't say I'm a very experienced reader when it comes to the Mills & Boon range, but I have read about five to ten of the books they publish and, though I can't recall any of the others, This is one that I did hold on to and would read again. It kept me very entertained from start to finish.The writing was great, the humour was fantastic, the sex was hot yet tasteful and the story was pretty good too. Now if only there was a filtering system for the rest.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow - who knew the queen of romantic comedy could write such incredible romantic suspense?! I really, really loved this book, and it was nothing like I expected. I mean, look at the cover. Sure, it might be nice for a woman to look at, but it also advertises in all its Harlequin Blaze glory that the book will be a sexathon. And it definitely isn’t. In fact I don’t even believe Blaze is the right category line for this book. Hawk is a former Special Forces soldier who now works for ATF as a field agent. He and a few others are set up for a string of bad crimes, and Hawk has no choice but to go on the run until he can prove his innocence. The problem is now ATF communications worker Abby has also been put in danger, and he has to take her with him - against her will - in order to keep her alive. What he does not realise as he’s doing this is that Abby is still recovering from another mission that went terribly wrong where she was captured and tortured. She sees Hawk’s actions as something different to what they are because she associates everything he does with what the people did to her in the past. They have to figure out if they can trust each other because they’re both on the same side and they’re both in danger. Shalvis has a way with words like no other writer. Most of her books are laugh out loud funny, but it doesn’t come from slapstick humour. It comes from her ability to create excellent dialogue and real characters. So all of those wonderful qualities are present here in this far more serious story, even in many of the most serious scenes. As always in Shalvis’ books there’s an excellent and engaging secondary romance that doesn’t get in the way of the main story but instead complements it. Shalvis’ characters are always individual and interesting, and she manages to find the right balance between humour and heat. This is a category romance, and so things have to move fast. But this is an author who knows how to handle the category restrictions without resorting to clichés and stupidity, and I got to the ending feeling it was a very satisfying read. I just loved this book. I’ve never before read a Jill Shalvis book that was so strong in the suspense aspect, and I liked the way she handled it so much I wish she would write more books in this genre!
