Summary: A hero to [think about]
Review: When Michael Wright first sees Tally Cruise, it appears that she is the girlfriend of her father's henchman, but learns otherwise when this ex Navy seal rescues her from the explosion that ostensibly killed all the others aboard Tally's father's boat. From the moment they meet, Tally and Michael are drawn to one another, leading to some of the hottest ... scenes you will find in a non erotica labeled book. For years, Michael has worked to end the career of the criminal who ended his partner and friend's life. Yet he now finds himself in love with the villain's daughter, an innocent raised away from his criminal activities. As they grow closer, his dilema worsens. Yet, all is not as it appears, and hidden things come out of the sea to attempt to wreck havoc in Michael and Tally's romance and lives. ...Though Micheal is one of the ...hunks of the romance world, and Tally is endearing with her many quirks that bring laughter to the novel, I found the plot a bit thin. Without the love scenes, there would be little left to the book, and some readers might find the explicity offensive. However, there is strong characterization and a good element of humor.

Summary: Steamy Romance by Cherry Adair
Review: With her typical cornball sense of humor, Cherry Adair tells the story of Michael Wainwright (an ex-Navy SEAL on an unofficial mission to avenge the death of his best friend) and Tally Cruise (estranged daughter of the man Michael intends to kill). There is so much going on in this thriller ' it is difficult to sum even half of it up. Michael is a pretty decent - if comical at times - hero. How could you not snicker just a little at a one eyed, tough as nails, ex-Seal with a water phobia, and a three-legged cat? Or a woman who seems to be so extremely clumsy she can hardly stand up on her own two feet, shows no fear of anyone, yet is afraid of the dark? In Too Deep is a pretty decent novel ' once you get past the first four chapters. It just seems that the beginning is kind of stilted, and the humor seems forced at first. After awhile, you get into the story and the characters; by the end of the book I caught myself thinking 'Hmmm' that was pretty good!' I would rate this novel R. Lots and lots of sex scenes ' the first of which happens the very first night they meet. And there are so many scenes that are almost relevant to the plot, I wouldn't advise skipping them completely ' if you do that sort of thing. And the language can best be described as' salty at best. Violence isn't all that bad ' Tally gets the crud beat out of her on a regular basis. And what she does to one particular assailant made me laugh (and wince) until I cried!
