There was nothing overtly wrong with this book, all in all it was an interesting romance. But it had absolutely none of the quick wit that other books in this genre have. It had the potential to be so much better.

What starts out as a case of mistaken motives and a glorious screwup turns into a gradual but intense romance. Funny, too.

This is the second Christina Skye book I've read. It is better than the last with only a couple of things that bugged me. Skye was off on her timing a little near the end, but I can look past that. A few other things were a bit off, but overall the story was good and fast paced. Most of the exciting action comes near the end of the book and I moved through it quickly. I liked both Carly and McKay and look forward to reading more of her books...

I really thought this was a god book. The main characters are Carly, a photographer who is looking for a replacement model and Ford, a navy seal who is really there to protect her. Great action between the two of them, and a really cool ending!

Carly, a photographer is on a cruise ship and needs a model - she just happens to ask the Navy Seal assigned to protect her from a threat she isn't aware of. A fun story. I always enjoy her books. The rest of the series get more intense and I liked them much better. I liked the fact that Carly took action when threatened instead of waiting for someone to come to her rescue.

Only the most gorgeous hunk will save fast track photographer Carly Sullivan's job, but finding the right man isn't easy when you're on a ship in the middle of the Caribbean and the model you hired turns out to be a disaster. With her hopes sinking faster than the Titanic, Carly spots the most beautiful man she's ever seen. Ford McKay swears he's a rancher from Wyoming, but Carly has her suspicions. Then all hell breaks loose in their island paradise and the sexy stranger is all that protects Carly from a hail of bullets.
Ford McKay knows that mixing business and pleasure can be murder, and he's not about to compromise his current mission for an obstinate redhead who can't forget her camera for a nanosecond. But when Carly is wounded, the rugged Navy SEAL can't just walk away. As fate forces the two into excruciatingly close quarters, Ford finds his heart taking a tumble. Soon the straight-arrow SEAL discovers that with the right woman, going overboard can be unforgettable.
