Fantastic thriller!

This isn't your typical romance or damsel-in-distress story! Hero is assigned to protect the girl, falls in love with the girl...and may actually be the real threat to her life! Ms. Kantra gives us a sexy romance full of twists and turns. Get a snack and curl up for the long haul with this one, because you won't put it down until you're done!

Don't read the back of the book! Very highly recommended

Following her husband's death, Samantha Barnes becomes the interim U.S. ambassador to the Republic of Delmonico. She fills her sleepless nights with hard work that is satisfying. But her success comes at a price when a conspiracy at the highest levels threatens her safety. Someone wants her dead in order to stop a peace treaty, and it is up to Navy SEAL hero Marcus Evans to insure her safety.Marcus does not initially care for his newest assignment, but he does appreciate an attractive woman like Samantha. When his superiors suspect a mole and cannot guarantee Samantha's safety while she is in Washington. Under orders to get her out of town, Marcus kidnaps her. But isolation and absolute security is not enough to thwart the danger that lurks around Samantha even as she looses her heart to her protector.Do not read the back cover before plunging into HER BEAUTIFUL ASSASSIN if you dislike spoilers. But even if you do read the cover, author Virginia Kantra pens a strong enough read to rivet one's attention. With a couple of unexpected turns and plenty of deft plotting, Kantra once again proves her remarkable ability to pen strong romance with a twist. Indeed, Kantra exceeds expectations in HER BEAUTIFUL ASSASSIN which works equally as well as part of the Family Secrets series or a standalone. She skillfully includes information which ties the tale to the larger whole without getting lost in the explication that commonly grows tedious in such series. HER BEAUTIFUL ASSASSIN comes very highly recommended.
