I found this book to be incredibly well written - not only for the great action but for the depth of emotion. SDDU (Special Designation Defense Unit) series by Dana Marton The SDDU is an elite group compiled of agents from all the US agencies; CIA, FBI, SEALs, Special Forces; the best of the best. The SDDU is Homeland Security's special weapon against terrorism. Shadow Soldier / Secret Soldier The Sheik's Safety / Camouflage Heart Rogue Soldier / Protective Measures These are all incredible reads! If you like action, adventure and romance, these will not disappoint you. I love that Ms. Marton writes her heroines to be equally as brave and strong as her heroes.

"Warrior With A Cause" Oh, Yeah! We find Brian Welkins being held prisoner in a Malaysian prison. A tiger's cage, no less. Four miserable, mind-blowing years. He was a member of the "SDDU", a top secret military group. He has been living for the day that he could escape. He is all geared up for a quiet escape when wouldn't you know Omar's men show up with a female hostage. Audrey Benedict. Audrey is in Malaysia to adopt a child when her sister, Nicky and several other people are taken hostage by Malaysian guerillas. Keep an eye out for Hamid, Jamil and Omar - what a nasty group! Their escape and trek through the jungle is breath-taking, plus-pounding action with a couple of death-defying skirmishes and a tricky encounter with Hamid. And dang, even the Malaysian troops are shooting at them. Great moving action - plot - story - join in the dodging of the bullets, snakes, creepy-crawlies - oh yes, and a mud slide. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED --M even with the raging hormones. And wait until they get back to civilization. Yikes.
