Book Monday – Medusa’s Master

cindydees I usually only pick up a category romance anymore when I have faith in the author, or I know them.  I’ve met Cindy Dees a couple of times and she’s got an Air Force background, like me.  Plus her Medusa series is entertaining.  This one – Medusa’s Master – is no exception.

The Medusas are a all-female Special Forces team and Captain Kim is the strong, silent one of the bunch.  Cindy blends a hot man (who talks about emotions amazingly well), romantic beach scenes, and great action in this installment.  It’s a quick, easy, read but I was impressed with how tightly focused the writing is and how nicely the action scenes are used.  It’s on my keeper list as an “authors I want to write like”.

From Barnes and Noble:

Captain "Kat" Kim, leader of the all-female Medusa squad, lives by the warrior’s code. Trained in an ancient warrior tradition, she can scale a wall in complete silence. But when she’s paired with Special Forces Captain Jeff Steiger, she faces new danger.
Steiger is all-American, from his blue eyes to his sun-streaked hair, and his laidback manner goes against Kat’s control-freak ways. When the two hunt for a high-end art thief, their opposite styles combust. And as mysterious commandos turn the job deadly, Kat must ditch her steely discipline and surrender to the desire that threatens to take them both down….
