Dangerous Games (Tempting SEALs)

I have read most of Lora Leigh's books and have enjoyed them for what they generally are, more erotica than storyline. This was actually different. Although I agreed with one of the reviewers that this is a typical storyline for her, Ms. Leigh put a lot more development into these characters than those I have read in the past and I really came to care for them both. It wasn't I am mad at the world so lets hop in bed every other page. No, the hero really does think he is too good for the heroine and needs to finally prove to himself that he deserves the love she is offering. Ms. Leigh's Seals are fun and exciting and I cannot wait to read the stories that follow.

Dangerous Games is my Recommended Read for February 2007! Morganna has loved Clint practically her entire life. In spite of the fact that he pushes her away at every turn, she knows he feels something for her. But after years of waiting for him, she has finally resolved to move on with her life and find her own place in the world - without Clint McIntyre. Clint has stayed away from Morganna, protecting her from his dangerous job, and his even more dangerous past. But when he returns home on leave and finds her in the most unexpected of places and in a very perilous position, he can neither ignore Morganna, nor his feelings for her. Finding her in his favorite BDSM club pushes every button his Dominant personality has, and challenges everything he thought he wanted... But Morganna has been keeping secrets, too, and hers have put her very life in danger. Working undercover as a DEA agent has made her the prime target for the very same drug cartel that Clint's SEALS team has been working to bring down. The very same drug cartel that wants revenge on Clint... Lora Leigh began her SEALs series with a short story in the anthology Honk if You Love Real Men. With Dangerous Games, she pens her first full-length SEALS novel, and leaves you panting for more! Clint "Iceman" McIntyre is as dangerous and brooding as an Alpha male can get! He will push every button you have - at one moment he is the most aggravating man on earth, then he is as tender as you might wish a lover to be, and in the next moment you find your heart breaking for him and the pain he holds inside. Morganna Chavez is the perfect foil for Clint, and a wonderful role model for women everywhere. She is independent, feisty, intelligent, kind-hearted, and definitely spirited. She calls Clint out at every turn when he is being bull-headed, but she knows just when to push him and when to back off. She picks her fights, and makes the moments count, and never ever lets him get away with anything! Her resolve to fight for Clint, for his soul even if she can't have his love, is heartening. The story is thick with suspense as the pair work to uncover the identity of not only the villains pushing a dangerous date-rape drug in the clubs, but to also ferret out the identity of a mole intent on betraying them all. With each new release, Leigh becomes even more adept with the suspense genre, which is never more evident than in this book. If you want plenty of action interlaced with a very spicy love story, you need to rush to the store right now and pick up your own copy of Lora Leigh's Dangerous Games!

This was a great book. I have been waiting for Clint and Morganna's story since I read Reno's and Raven's. I am really glad that this book was longer than the last one. I loved the previous book but it would have been alot better if it had been longer. Clint has been denying his feelings for Morganna since she was a teenager. Now she's all grown up and has a dangerous job puting criminals away. When Clint finds out what she's been doing the last few years he's furious and has her pulled off the investigation. They lock heads and things heat up as Clint can't deny the passion he has for Morganna. I can't wait to read more of the Seals books and I hope there will be alot of them. I'm already anticipating Kel, Mace, and Ian's stories.

SEAL Clint McIntyre has wanted Morganna for ten years. Though he has ached with the need to possess her, he is unwilling to shatter her illusions of the happily ever after that he cannot offer. Consequently, he's kept his distance. However, when Morganna's life is threatened by unseen enemies, Clint will fight to protect her with every ounce of his being. Morganna Chavez has been in love with Clint since she was 16 years old. She has tempted him every time he has been near, but to no avail. As a result, she has resigned herself to the fact that she will never be a part of his life. Unwilling to sacrifice her happiness any longer by yearning for something beyond her reach, Morganna embarks on a new career; a dangerous career that she conceals from Clint. When Clint discovers her new job, along with the danger stalking her, Morganna knows that fate is about to alter her life in an unforeseen way. DANGEROUS GAMES by Lora Leigh has to be one of the most emotionally intense books I have read in a very long time. As I began to read, I eagerly anticipated a story containing the equation of Dominant Man + Submissive Woman = Match Made in Heaven. After all, a strong alpha-male hero is one of my favorite expectations when I pick up a Lora Leigh book. My equation, assumed with all good intentions, turned out to be much too simplistic for what this book delivered. There was more of everything; more action, more intensity, more chemistry and more heat. Clint, in all of his manly glory and accoutrements, immediately had me quivering and wishing for a Navy SEAL all my own; alas, that was not meant to be as Clint was Morganna's alone whether he admitted it or not. Speaking of Morganna, she is an exceptionally strong heroine. This was the aspect that Ms. Leigh delivered over and above my expectations. Though she understands Clint is alpha and dominant, Morganna holds her own. Exceedingly stubborn when Clint is beating his chest the hardest, Morganna gives him a run for his money and I think it's glorious. Fully aware of Clint's feelings, Morganna has the strength to give him what he wants; or what he thinks he wants the most. His surrender to their relationship has to be one of the most beautiful love scenes I have ever had the fortune to read. I actually FELT their love pour from the pages. I am overjoyed that Lora Leigh has once again penned a marvelous novel of suspense and raw passion. My heart immediately began to pine for these SEALS upon reading RENOS' CHANCE in last year's "Honk If You Love Real Men" anthology. DANGEROUS GAMES continues the zest I have for these wonderfully alpha men. I am on pins and needles with my legs crossed waiting on the next installment, FOR MAGGIE'S SAKE, and I fear the wait just might kill me!
