"Knight Keeps the Heat Turned On - STEAMY!"
In the second volume of Knight's original new series, she
picks up where she left off with characters from the first
novel returning for a new adventure, new loves, and a new
hero grappling with his own demons. Marco McKinley had been assigned to Earth most of his life
and was now coming to his place in time as a warrior and
guardian to the newly married royals Jared and Kelsey. As a
Madjin he was sworn to forego his own sexual urges and
protect the royals. Unfortunately, one royal, Thea Haven,
ignites a desire and a yearning in him that is beyond
anything he has ever felt before. Little do either of them
know that their recognition of "knowing" one another can be
explained. In an alternate universe they were lovers, both
bound together by betrayal and vengeance against the very
royals Marco was now sworn to protect. Thea thought once that her life was over once her cousin
and king Jared took a human for a lifemate but now she has
to contend with an overwhelming awareness of the very
disturbing Madjin whose very presence is causing her
to 'change'. With Earth on the brink of disaster from the
alien warmonger Antousians who want to annihilate the human
race, Marco and Thea must first fight off their forbidden
desires before they can band together to fight the real
enemy. Once again Knight explodes with another compelling page-
turner that is a must read for fans she hooked with her
debut PARALLEL ATTRACTION. As the saga of Jared and Kelsey
continues, it is richly enhanced with the love between
Marco and Thea while tossing in a few nibbles for one can
safely assume as an upcoming book featuring a romance
between Scott and the FBI blind linguist Hope. Although
enough references were made to background events from the
first book, this can be considered stand-alone but truly
would be more enjoyable if read in order. Bottom line is
this is one heck of a riveting sensual ride no matter what
order it's read in.
