Another Sexy gem from Lucy Monroe

Lucy Monroe's writes sexy agents like no other and it really shines in her latest novel, The Spy Who Wants Me. They really know how to protect their clients with everything they have. Elle Gray, a Goddard Project agent takes a case that brings her back near her family in California. Elle is brought in as a security consultant to help protect a valuable scientific project. Elle is tops in her field and gives her all to her job. Elle is taken aback by her instant attraction to the head scientist Beau Ruston. Dr. Beau Ruston is willing to protect his project, even to the point of agreeing to outside security. He sure wasn't expecting to be visual charged by his first look at Elle Gray. Soon Beau realizes Elle is not only beautiful but smart and skilled. Elle has avoided her family for a few years after the death of her husband. Now her family is front and center with her brother Mat working with Beau. Add to this stress is Mat's girlfriend Chantal who is being threatened by outsiders who want their hands on the project. Elle and Beau's romance is smoking hot and deeply sensual. The suspense of who the security leak adds another layer to the multi dimensional book. The secondary romance of Mat and Chantal is sweet and sexy and is well written as well. Lucy Monroe's books are tops of my list of books to buy. You can't go wrong in picking up her books.

Truth, Justice, and the American Way

All of Lucy Monroe's books are based upon the reader not taking the stories to seriously. The basic plot of Ms. Monroe's novels are good versus evil, truth wins out, and lust and passion equate to true love. Not a problem for this reader. Lucy's books always provide me with a great read and a longing for my hero to come along. To me this is what a good romance book is supposed to accomplish. Ms. Monroe writes about strong men, but her woman are just as complex and she is skilled at creating great chemistry with all her charcters. Though she did bring in Alan, Nitro, and Josie, I wish more would have been said about how the other players from her previous novels were doing. I'd like to see them all reunited again before Ms. Monroe moves away from this series. I can't wait for to learn more about Jonathan; aka Mr. Smith and who he and "The Old Man" decide to play matchmaker for next time.

lampoons Lucy Monroe's TGP romantic suspense thrillers

The Goddard Project "Old Man" decides his best field operative Elle Gray should handle the California situation, but not because she is his top gun; instead he is worried about her as her entire life is TGP having no vacations from the job except field training. The Old Man believes California mellow will be good for Elle and with her chemical engineering degree might fit in with scientists on the right side of the law and perhaps he prays go out out on a date or two. Research chemist Beau Ruston's top secret laboratory was compromised. Elle is sent in under the cover of being a security consultant insuring it does not happen again. In fact she is there to keep Beau safe and catch those who breached security. It is attraction at first sight as Beau and Elle want one another. However, she hides her true vocation from him while he conceals he knows her true vocation. However, Elle's hidden identity is in trouble when she learns her brother Matej works at the lab. When her sibling's girlfriend becomes the pawn of espionage thieves trying to steal Beau's antigravity prototype, a fired up Elle goes after them. THE SPY WHO WANTS ME is a solid yet inane TGP espionage romance that in many ways lampoons Lucy Monroe's romantic suspense thrillers (see READY, WILLING, ABLE, and SATISFACTION GUARANTEED). The key players are cartoon caricatures in nature especially the superheroine and the villains. However, the story line is lighthearted fun to follow as the spy who came in from the cold finds heat with her scientist, who discovers the ecstasy of first hand (tongue, etc) vaginal research.
