Customer Reviews

Powerful drama--Very highly recommended

Twenty-one months ago Robert Davidson barely escaped war-ravaged Rebelia with his life. The subsequent months of rehabilitation provided way too much time to grieve Lily Scott, a passionate journalist that refused to leave the country. As he watched, the pub where he left her was blown to bits, presumably leaving no survivors in its decimated rubble. But when Robert returns to Rebelia on a mission, he finds the woman he left behind alive. Only now she has a baby. Scars from the past motivate Lily to provide the orphans of Rebelia all the help that she can. With a deadly dictator in power, she believes she has the knowledge to take him down. But she never intended for her son or for Robert to become pawns in her deadly game. She tries to conceal the truth of her son's paternity, along with many other secrets, in order to protect Robert. Unfortunately, fate will expose all of her secrets in a deadly game she cannot win alone. Readers will find Linda Castillo's THE PHOENIX ENCOUNTER impossible to put down. This fast paced, complex romance has all the elements for the perfect romantic suspense: powerful characterizations, life threatening danger and fast paced plotting. Resourceful, intelligent and determined, Lily is the kind of woman that survives dangerous situations with grace. She is also believably flawed, attempting to protect those she loves from the dangerous game she plays. Robert initially blinds himself to the obvious, yet his ingenuity protects those he loves. In addition, continuities are surprisingly complex, with threads that must neatly tie to other novels, and can challenge the most seasoned authors. But Linda Castillo handles her part of the series with finesse. THE PHOENIX ENCOUNTER works well as part of the series or as a stand-alone. THE PHOENIX ENCOUNER comes very highly recommended.
