Customer Reviews

This is a Really Fun Book.

Vickie has created a delightful series with the Woman of S.A.S.S, I really like the chemistry between Maggie and Justin, in this book, and the story is very well plotted and really is a page turner. One thing I like about this series, is that the Adventure comes first, and the Romance is a subplot. As a guy, Im not normally interested in Romances, but these stories read more like a Hollywood movie, except the Leading Ladies are as strong, capable, and sexy as the leading men. Vickie Hinze is just a really gifted story teller and I will give most anything she writes a chance, but I have to admit this is my Favorite. It's been a while since the last S.A.S.S. book has come out and I hope she has not lost interest in the series, because I am really looking forward to its final chapter myself. A wonderful read for a winters evening, so turn off your tube, and curl up with a great book. :) BB.

Suspense at its best!

It's Christmas time and Maggie Holt, Secret Assignment Security Specialist (SASS) is not happy that she's being teamed up to work with Dr. Justin Crowe of Crowe Pharmaceuticals. Maggie is not fond of men since her former husband, Jack, cheated on her with her former best friend, Karen. She specifically doesn't want to work with Crowe because she knows he was caught cheating on his ex-wife, Andrea. Justin Crowe, a civilian, is working with SASS as a scientific expert. He's trying to prevent an extremely dangerous and deadly virus from being released by German-born Thomas Kuntz. The SASS believes Kuntz will most likely try to target the Santa Bella mall with the virus. Kuntz' ultimate goal is to destroy the United States by destroying its economy. As Maggie and Justin work together, their feelings for each other mount. The first priority however is the mission. Vicki Hinze has again written a novel that sizzles. Once she sets the stage, look out, because you're in for a breathless ride. And just like her novel, Body Double, Double Dare is so exciting, you might want to make sure your heart can take the ride. It was also enjoyable to meet characters that returned to make an appearance from Body Double. It was like meeting up with old friends, or dangerous enemies, and added to the fun. Armchair Interviews says: Double Dare is suspense that won't quit.

delightful speeding rocket ride of a thriller

Secret Assignment Security Specialist (SASS) Agent Maggie Holt hates working with men ever since her former spouse Jack cheated on her with her once best friend. Maggie does not trust males to protect her back as they always think with the wrong head and that adds unneeded danger during precarious situations. The SASS operative has no choice when the assignment forces her to team up with a male civilian, Dr. Justin Crowe of Crowe Pharmaceuticals as he is the scientific expert in preventing a deadly virus being released by Thomas Kuntz most likely at the Santa Bella Mall on Christmas Eve. Maggie knows from the dossier that Justin was caught cheating on his wife, who is now his ex. However as they work together she admits to herself Justin is not like her ex husband though he did wrong as he understands the seriousness of the mission must come before any personal feelings. As they work together to prevent the terrorists from succeeding, Maggie and Justin fall in love, but their priority remains stopping the lethal assault. Once a reluctant Maggie finishes sassing her new teammate and goes to the mall hoping to be just in time to stop a tragedy, the tale goes into hyperspeed and never decelerates until the final altercation. Readers will need a seatbelt as this thriller stays at faster than light speed throughout the story line. Yet in spite of the action, fans will understand Maggie's aversion and Justin's ability to overwhelm her doubts though he did cheat on his ex-spouse. Vicki Hinze provides a delightful speeding rocket ride. Harriet Klausner
