Maria Catrina Angels was a rich and spoiled young woman who had a passion for trouble and a body to go with it. When she hired Luc Jardin and his partner Jack Reify to fly her back to the states from South America with her small shipment, both men thought it would be an easy job. When they were ambushed and barely got out with their lives, Luc vowed he get even with Ms. Angels the first chance he got.

Two years later fate had it that he would cross paths with Maria again, when her brother asked if he would take her to his ranch, explaing that the family was concerned about her drug habit and she needed to be somewhere where she could dry out and get off the drugs. When Luc kidnapped the red haired vixen from her home that night he felt he was going to carry out his vow. The more she was with him the more Luc began to realize he was getting too close to her. She looked like the same woman he had met at that airport two years ago yet there was something different.

Could she really have changed? Was this cowboy falling for this spinner of tall tales? Why was she insisting that she was Melina?

An interesting plot and story that will have one wondering if Luc will catch on. Extremely sensual but with a good love story that is not overpowered by sensuality. I especially enjoyed how Luc's character developed into a compassionate one. I won't give away the ending but I will say it's a good read and very entertaining.

Overall rating:
Sensuality rating: Very sensual
