Friendly Fire By Megan Hart

Previously published; newly revised by author.

After Agent Kendall Frasier's partner is shot in "friendly fire" during a drug bust, she agrees to take a week's vacation on a tropical island as part of her psychiatric evaluation. Sand, sun, sea—what could be better to help her work through her guilt? Even if the presence of the man responsible for the shooting, Agent Zane Vincent, seems counterproductive to her mental health.

As Kendall gets to know Zane, and realizes he feels worse about what happened than she does, it becomes impossible to hate him. And their mutual attraction becomes impossible to deny.

Kendall and Zane soon agree to put the event that brought them together in the past—and spend the present exploring their most erotic desires. Do they have a future in the real world when their week in paradise is over?

Elena's Review:

  Kendall Fraiser is a DEA agent and Zane Vincent is an undercover agent working for the DEA.They were both forced to take a two week vacation to Corazon del Mar,to undergo psychological evaluation and therapy.This all happens after a tragic accident,where Kendall loses her partner,Dan Whitney in the line of duty and she puts the blame on Zane Vincent. Because of this result,she can't stand Zane being in her presence. I think Kendall was a little snooty with the situation,because when she comes to realize she didn't care for her partner at all,it was just guilt for losing her asswipe partner.Kendall felt as if she could have done more to protect him,since it was her job to protect her partner.Now she feels like she failed him,and no matter how much she disliked him, in her eyes,he still didn't deserve to die. But as they say he died in a "Friendly Fire" Zane had tried controlling the situation during the bust to take down the Yoda brothers (drug dealers) Kendall's partner Dan, had stepped in the way of Zane's bullet. Of course after everything that went down,that is why Kendall blames Zane for the sudden death of her partner. Little does she know,it was harder on Vincent then her.

After a few days of bickering between the two. Kendall gives Zane the benefit of the doubt,and OOOOH BOY! It's gets steamy! Is that what happens,when opposites attract? Cause I swear their little rendezvous on the island leads to puppy love and all that! ahahahaha....Keeping their hands off one another was a huge No-No.The attraction was definitely there. Lolz!

I thought it was a very cute read,just a little disappointed it was cut short.I would loved to have read more on the relationship between Kendall and Zane progress outside of their one-week vacation,but it was good,I liked it!.For a Megan Hart novel,it was quite different than many she has written.I guess not everything she writes will make you sob and see reality in a whole totally different view. So it was really nice to see a different change in her writing style. It was a very well-developed story plot and I definitely loved the characters!
