The Mercenary

* The T-FLAC Series: The Mercenary (This is the 2008 re-release of the original book that began the series in 1994. This newly published version has about 100 new pages added to the story.) Kiss And Tell Hide And Seek In Too Deep Out Of Sight On Thin Ice Hot Ice Edge Of Danger Edge Of Fear Edge Of Darkness White Heat This book was worth waiting for! Months age, I learned that this re-release was coming out. I've wanted to read the T-FLAC series, but I made myself wait for this first book to be republished so that I could start from the beginning. I'm hooked. Marc Savin, AKA "Phantom", retired from his position as a T-FLAC (Terrorist Force Logistical Assault Command) spy two years ago. Painful memories have caused him to hide himself away on a country ranch ever since. Nothing and nobody could convince him to return to spy work, until a strange woman showed up at his home in need of help. Victoria's twin brother, a T-FLAC spy, has gone missing. She believes that Marc may be the only one who can help find and save him. Tori and her brother have shared a psychic connection since birth. Using the connection, she has located her brother in Italy. Marc is reluctant to come out of retirement. Seeing Tori's suffering, he caves. He has no choice but to take Tori with him. She is the only one who can point Marc to her brother's prison. Knowing herself for a coward, Tori tries to convince him to go without her. In the end, although neither is happy about going, both are willing to risk all to find Tori's brother. For several days, Marc and Tori hide- out in a cavern while executing the search. As much as they try to avoid it, they find themselves attracted to one another. Marc knows he needs to keep a cool distance. He also needs meek Tori to become fighting- angry so that she can toughen up in case there is trouble ahead. When Tori is captured by the same criminals who hold her brother, the rescue mission becomes twice as critical. When Marc is injured, the mission grows even more dangerous. Now Marc and Tori must keep both themselves and one another strong for the battle. Mark will learn that he has a heart, and Tori will learn that she has mettle. Cherry Adair gave " The Mercenary" everything you want in a romantic action/ thriller: Great love scenes, a building emotional connection between the hero and heroine, powerful villains, and fast- paced action. I couldn't put this book down. Interested in the whole series? Here are the links for the sequels to date: Kiss and Tell (The Men of T-FLAC: The Wrights, Book 2) Hide and Seek (The Men of T-FLAC: The Wrights, Book 3) In Too Deep (The Men of T-FLAC: The Wrights, Book 4) Out of Sight (The Men of T-FLAC: The Wrights, Book 5) On Thin Ice (The Men of T-FLAC: The Wrights, Book 6) Hot Ice (The Men of T-FLAC, Book 7) Edge of Danger Edge of Fear (The Men of T-FLAC: The Edge Brothers, Book 9) Edge of Darkness (The Men of T-FLAC: The Edge Brothers, Book 10)

FYI, this book is being re-issued (probably March 2008) with about 100 added pages. This is per an email from Cherry Adair.

I Could not put down Hide and Seek and Kiss and Tell so I fugured it would be worth spending a little extra cash to get this book in an ebay auction. I am so glad that I spent the $9.00. It was so WORTH IT. This story was great. She always leaves you wanting more! I have been hoping that she will continue to write about the other brothers from Hide and Seek and Kiss and Tell - Now I am hoping that one day she will come back with a story about Tory's brother....

I throughly enjoyed Cherry Adair's "The Mercenary". It has enough suspense and spice to really keep your attention and sets the stage for "Kiss and Tell". Can't wait for her next book!!
