Harlequin Temptation #485: Undercurrent

This is the story of the prim and proper Susannah and the dark Latin former street kid turned FBI agent, Augustus (Gus) Rapheal. Susannah is madly in love with this dangerous brooding man. The problem? He had an unsuccessful love with her perfect sister, and still apparently carried the torch. However, he came to offer her a job to go undercover with him, and she agreed. Soon, the inevitable happened and they were running from danger and submitting to their passions. This is a sweet romance, and you really do like both characters. It doesn't have the snazziest of writing, and sometimes seems rather simple and slow, but the romance was a very effecting one. The danger and intrigue was not bad as a backdrop and kept as a continual focus where some other romance novels may leave it as a weak side story that's often forgotten when the passion runs high. I recommend this book if you want a simple sweet romance and two likeable characters.
