The tougher they are, the harder they fall…
Professional mercenary Dare Macintosh lives by one hard and fast rule: business should never be personal. If a cause appeals to him and the price is right, he'll take the mission he's offered. But then the lovely Molly Alexander asks him to help her track down the men who'd had her kidnapped—and for the first time, Dare's tempted to combine work with pleasure.
Fiercely independent, Molly vows to trust no one until she's uncovered the truth. Could the enemy be her powerful, estranged father? The ex-fiancé who still holds a grudge? Or the not-so-shy fan of her bestselling novels? As the danger heats up around them, the only anchor Molly has is Dare himself. But what she feels for him just might be the most frightening thing of all…

Holly's Review: This is the first book in a new series from Lori Foster, and let me say what a fantastic start to the series it was. There is a prequel in the anthology The Guy Next Door, just and FYI.
As stated by LF herself, the new series revolves around uber-Alpha hunks. The men are similar to private mercenaries, so they're big, capable, a little dangerous and oh-so-sexy. When it comes to rescuing the innocent, they do what has to be done. Foster calls them the men who 'walk the edge of honor!'
The first in the series is about Dare Macintosh, and yes, he is as delicious as he sounds. The story begins with Dare having rescued his friends sister from a human-trafficking ring in Tijuana and while doing so he rescued another woman being held, Molly Alexander. Dare is not sure what to do with her and she is totally not what he expected. This is one of things I liked most about this book, the heroine was incredibly strong, she was hurt but not broken and Dare, while being and Alpha and needing to protect, did not coddle Molly and let her actively participate in uncovering the mystery of why she was taken.
There are some great secondary characters in this story as well, Natalie & Jett, who we meet in The Guy Next Door, along with Dare's assistant/friend Chris who lives with him and his 'girls' Tai & Sargie!! All in all, I loved this book and cannot wait for the second and third installments, Trace of Fever & Savor the Danger!!
