Emeralds & Espionage

In the first book in this series, we meet Melanie Allison Alexander, a translator for the UN. She's home on vacation when she finds strange men at the mansion she and her mother take care of, strange men who attempt to shoot her. Upon entering the house, Allison discovers a series of secret passages and hides from the men when they enter the house. Turns out they have the children from the Royal family in Thailand, and Allison takes them and hides them from the men. Allison eventually winds up captured herself, and finds herself an impromptu bride in a plot to capture a terrorist named Antonio Scaddono. But her world is full of secrets, including the surprise return of Bart, her childhood sweetheart. Who is for real, and further, what's Allison's role in all of this? This is a very good book, I had a hard time putting it down. Highly recommended.

So cool

I thought that this book was awesome! I love the action/thriller and love squeezed in between. Despite what some think, (ahem) I thought the plot was exciting and I could hardly put the book down.
