An Arizona journalist enters a world of danger--and desire--when she blows the cover of a deadly covert operative in this spellbinding romantic suspense novel from New York Times-bestselling author Meryl Sawyer Kelly Taylor's career as an investigative journalist was derailed by a news story that resulted in tragedy. Now, she's back in Sedona lying low as a local reporter for her grandfather's paper. But she may get another shot at the brass ring. After vanishing twenty-five years ago, the long-lost son of a powerful state senator has turned up in her Arizona town. With few memories of his childhood, Logan McCord grew up to become a trained killer who fights terrorism. A twist of fate reunites the Special Ops agent with his family, but the homecoming isn't what he expected. With his true identity exposed, Logan's enemies know where to find him. As Kelly and Logan start to fall for each other, her quest to find an abandoned child takes them to Venezuela. But in Logan's dangerous world, there's no shortage of enemies who want to make him disappear and nowhere for him and Kelly to hide from a killer whose lust for money and power runs lethally deep. Contains mature themes.
The synopsis to this book does not do it justice! It has a very in-depth plot and makes you feel the character's emotions! I simply could NOT put it down- literally! I was so sad to see it end, yet at the same time I couldn't wait for it to end so that I could see what happens! I very strongly recommend this book. I have spent tons of time and money on this website and this is the first time that I have felt compelled to write a review. I hope you buy this book- if you like romantic suspense, you will LOVE Tempting Fate. I'm off to buy all the rest of her books now....
OUTSTANDING

This is the first book I have ever read by Meryl Sawyer. I absolutely loved it. I definitely agree with the other readers, the best book ever. I think Logan and Kelly made a great couple. Many times I read books where one of the main characters is always nasty until the very end and that can be quite exasperating, this was a delightful change. My only regret is that the book ended. If there were more than five stars available to rate, I would rate it higher.
Great! I loved it!

One of the best books I've read so far this year. (I know, it's only the 27th day of January but I've read a lot!) This book had me hooked from page one and I didn't stop until the end. Highly recommended.
Tempting Fate is great and the title fits perfectly.

Meryl Sawyer is a great writer, you never get disappointed in any of her books. I've read about 6 of her books and I think every story is unique. The characters - Kelly and Logan are so down to earth. The plot is perfect and their interests very intriguing. I liked the way she describes the lives of the Navajos and the typical lifestyle of the Stanfields. Logan's lifestyle as a Cobra is even interesting but the part about the escape could have been lengthened. Anyway this is one great book. By the way that's what I say everytime I read one of her books.

Meryl Sawyer dishes up another intricate tale of suspense, mystery and romance with "TEMPTING FATE". Logan Mc Cord and Kelly Taylor are strong, independant, and content to be on their own - until they realize that fate has other plans. Both are running from pasts that are less than perfect, and find; in each other, the promise of happiness. Happy running a small town newspaper, Kelly is tipped off to get the scoop of the decade and interview Logan Mc Cord, the missing child of the town's hope for President . Logan is trying to keep a low profile, while the prominent political family that left him for dead in the desert years before drags him back into the spotlight. An orphaned boy, a political scam, several mysterious murders and a whole lot of romance round out the story. Meryl Sawyer is a great storyteller, and in the tradition of " A KISS IN THE DARK", "THE HIDEAWAY" and "UNFORGETTABLE", she'll keep you hooked until the last page !
