OUTSTANDING-ACTION-PACKED-TALE!

This was another BOMBSHELL I enjoyed so much I stayed up reading the almost 200 pages I had left last night. And it didn't disappoint. Adria Caskey was a character I liked instantly. After reading the heart-wrenching Prologue of what happened to her at six years of age, how could I not want to keep reading her story? The impact of the story hits you from the very first sentence. This is a terrific tale about a woman haunted by the sadness of her past, willing to do whatever it takes to seek revenge for the loss. Though, as strong as Adria is during tough situations, there's still a lot of heart and emotion burning inside her. Sylvie's writing was outstanding - from start to finish. Descriptive narrative without weighing down the story. I pictured every event as I read along with the precision her words painted. And the hero - Peter Dragon - is also a character I took to right away. Such a great, tight plot with realistic characters dealing with an action-packed situation that keeps you wanting more until you read the last word. I highly recommend this book!

thrilling romantic suspense

In Stamford, Connecticut business executive Peter Dragon needs personal protection so he hires an undercover bodyguard Adria Caskey to pretend to be his assistant. However, unbeknownst to Peter, Adria has plans for her new employer that is not in his best interests. He was one of those who killed her parents when she was six years old living in Hawaii and her surname was Kaholo; he is the only one left for her to enact her grandfather's death bed vengeance. The preliminary phases of her plan go off without a hitch so Adria sets up the implementation step. However, before she can destroy her enemy, an adversary surfaces using her scheme to attack Adria and Peter. To survive this intruder who wants both dead, Adria will have to team up with the person she most hates in the world. As they struggle to live, Adria and Peter fall in love, but she refuses to sleep with the enemy as she cannot let go of the past beyond the current deadly scenario as she still plans to kill Peter once the new foe is stopped. PERSONAL ENEMY is a thrilling romantic suspense with the emphasis on the action though the attraction between the besieged lead duo is not neglected, but handled in context of their past and their current dire straits. The story line is fast-paced starring realistic characters especially Adria and Peter. Romantic thriller readers will appreciate this tense tale. Harriet Klausner
