Enjoyable lead-in

Sleeping with the Enemy has Dr. Destiny (Dee) Romine falling for undercover FBI agent Chase Bracken, who has been sent to find Dr. Dee's brother, Jared. Seems Jared is rogue FBI agent, and the Bureau will stop at nothing to apprehend him. Agent Bracken will bend the rules to the point of breaking to solve a case, and bringing in Jared Romine is no different, especially if it means cozying up to his kid sister. But Dr. Dee Romine has had it with the FBI dogging her footsteps for the past 3 years in an effort to find her brother. She can spot an agent a mile away, or so she thought until Chase Bracken comes to town. Dee needs to make some personal and professional decisions throughout the story, and will Chase be able to decide between his need to solve the case and his feelings for Dee, or will there be a way to have both. There were a few problems with the book, however. The first half (or more) of the book was spent learning about Dee and Chase but not really advancing the plot. Also, with so much time spent explaining how Dee can pick out an FBI agent at the drop of a hat, I found it hard to believe that she would fall for Chase without any questions. The romance between Dee and Chase sizzles, definitely living up to the Blaze standards. While the book moves along a little slower than one might like, Sleeping with the Enemy is a good lead-in to Jamie Denton's Seducing the Enemy, which concludes Jared Romine's story.

A great story to enjoy

Deep undercover FBI agent Jared Romine goes even deeper underground when he is accused of murder. Three years later the Feds cannot find Jared though he remains in contact with his sister. The FBI keeps a questionable surveillance on Jared's sibling though she has not committed any crime. New York based FBI agent Chase Bracken has been very successful until he alienates a higher up. He is given two weeks to locate and bring Jared in or else. Desperate not to lose the job he loves, Chase will break any rule that stands in the way of his nabbing Jared. The starting and ending point is Jared's sister, emergency room Dr. Destiny "Dee" Romine. Dee keeps everyone at a distance because she knows about the FBI witch-hunt for her brother. However, the new neighbor upstairs penetrates her heart and soul, and Chase reciprocates her feelings of love. However, their budding relationship appears dead before it can soar once she learns she has been SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY. SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY is a powerful romantic suspense novel that works because of Chase, who will do just about anything to solve the case. The heated story line is fast-paced and filled with action. However, the lead characters' relationship ultimately stuns the audience with how good this novel is. Readers will feel the summer temperatures soar on the growing love between Chase and Dee as well as his feelings of guilt and her sense of betrayal. Jamie Denton has written a winner in which readers will demand a sequel for starring that deeply buried former Fed Jared.Harriet Klausner

FBI agent Jared Romaine devoted himself to deep cover assignments until he was accused of murder. The government claims the proof against him is rock solid. In the three years he's been in hiding, the best of the agency has been unable to track him down. Somehow, this rogue agent still manages to maintain tenuous contact with his beloved sister without revealing his location. Even though the government wants Jared, not his sister, they use their connection to watch and wait for Jared to surface.FBI agent Chase Bracken has made a name for himself by breaking rules and earning the highest success rate in the New York office. But now he has offended the wrong desk jockey, and if he wishes to remain with the agency, he has only two weeks to locate Jared Romaine. Prepared to use any method necessary, Chase doesn't know his rule breaking is about to endanger his heart. While he reminds himself that the good lady doctor is nothing but the sister of a killer, and therefore a means to an end, his emotional involvement takes their passionate encounters to all new levels.Destiny "Dee" Romine knows how relentless the FBI can be. A woman with secrets, she doesn't let anyone too close, even choosing ER medicine so disallow patient closeness. Although she's had a few men in her life, none of those relationships made her sexual desire kick into high. When she meets the sexy football coach renting the space overhead, Dee faces a sizzling awareness that sends her into sensory overload. When she learns that she's sleeping with the enemy, the betray promises to destroy all.Winner of the WordWeaving Award of Excellence, SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY combines the best of romance with the worst of deception, creating a remarkable, memorable read. Author Jamie Denton's characteristic trademark -- inclusion of an adopted character -- results in a fabulous hero. With a unique flair for combining a sexy, sultry love story with an intense plot, Denton once again proves her mastery of romance. Indeed, this reviewer will never be able to eat a cherry red Popsicle again without thinking of erotic connotations! Very highly recommended.
