Vikki’s Musings

This is the third book I have read by Lora Leigh, and I enjoyed it for the most part. Thanks goes to the publisher, via Net-Galley, for the chance to read and review in advance of publication. My opinions are my own and are not influenced in any way.  

Ms. Leigh writes fantastic suspense scenes that had me nibbling on my nails, waiting to find out what would happen next. It quickly drew me in, and I had a hard time putting it down. This is a plot-driven story, and for anyone who loves hot, steamy sexual scenes, there are those as well.

Emma Jane Preston is a bit of the girl-next-door type of character. She’s recently gone through a divorce and isn’t looking for another relationship. She needs to heal from her bad marriage with a man who did a number on her self-esteem. She is attracted to Llya Dragonovich, but she tries to ignore her feelings for a good part of the book.

Llya Dragonovich, known as the Dragon, is a tortured hero and believes he could never be good enough for Emma. He’s done thing he’s not proud of and knows that when it’s time, he must assume his roll in the family. A family who has unusual business practices. He would not want to put those types of dangers on a family.

The romance between Emma and Llya is amazingly sweet, especially compared to the strong, verging on Erotic scenes, in Dagger’s Edge, the second book in this series. I actually liked this a lot more. I enjoyed watching their romance develop and wanted them to find their happy ending.

If you enjoy high suspense romances with well-written suspenseful scenes with a lovely romance as well, then you will love Lethal Nights. It will certainly keep you on the edge of your seat. Happy reading!
