An early Adair that has been reworked and reissued. Tory Jones enlists the help of T-FLAC agent Marc Savin when her brother Alex is captured by terrorists. Marc was Alex's partner but has since retired. When he finds out that Alex is captured and not dead he plans to go rescue him. Soon he realizes that there is a psychic link between the siblings and so he reluctantly takes Tory on the mission with him. Good, quick, romantic, action adventure reading.

Victoria has absolutely no desire to be a heroine (even action movies have too much adventure for her), but her twin brother Alex has gone missing while on a counter-terrorist mission. She turns to Marc, Alex's best friend, to try to get him home. Marc drags her along with him to a fictional Mediterranean island, where they deal with bad guys, fall in love and try to re-establish Tory's psychic link with her nearly-dead brother.

This is a re-released, "refurbished" issue of the first book in Adair's T-FLAC series. Since it's a Harlequin, it's not the most substantial of novels, and lacks some of the intensity of Adair's more recent books, but it's an enjoyable fast read.

This is a great action romance!

Great book, lots of action and heat!

Marc Savin, current times, and Victoria Jones. Marc is the retired operative in the T-Flac organization, known as phantom. His best friend and partner is Alex Stone, the operative known as Lynx, and he needs Marc's help to take down Spider, a terrorist group that has long been evading capture. Marc is still grieving over the agent he killed;the woman he loved, the woman who carried his baby, the woman who was a traitor sent to kill him. He hadn't believed the story until Alex had brought the proof and literally dropped it in his hands, and then he had sent Alex packing, right into the hands of Spider, and to his death bed. Six months later he comes home to find a woman asleep on his couch, a woman he has never met, or even heard of, though she claims to be Alex's twin, But Alex never mentioned her, and he is dead, a little too convenient for Marc. Victoria knows her only chance of getting her brother away from Spider alive, is Marc Savin, but how can she break through that hard shell, and make him give a damn about anything, he is too full of self pity right now, and she is too meek to tell him. One of her first novels, and it shows, but it was nice to finally read Marc's story.
