Huge Lora Leigh fan over here. OK being a big fan of a author for me just ratchets up the tension wondering if your going to like their next book. If you have a so so feeling or it's a new author it's not so bad. You don't like it not a big deal right? Being a big fan you build up some expectations. The more i get to like a author the bigger that expectation gets. OK I'll be honest I'd probably forgive them anyway even if i didn't like it. OK now that that's out of the way let's talk about Lora Leigh's latest Elite Ops series book Live Wire!!! To read this book i think you have to have read a few of the previous books or it won't make as much sense. There are lots of past characters in this book as well. Love when authors bring back past characters. In the Elite ops series you see them in alot of the books anyway but in Live Wire you see more and you see the couples from previous books. A+ for that alone. Let's get to a back page blurb first kay?
A HERO AMONG MEN
Meet Captain Jordan Malone. For years he has been a silent warrior and guardian, operating independent of government protocol or oversight, leading his loyal team of Elite Ops to fight terror at all costs. A legend in the field, Jordan’s true identity has remained a mystery to even his own men…until now.
A MAGNET FOR ONE WOMAN
Tehya Talamosi, codename: Enigma, is a force to be reckoned with. A woman this striking spells nothing but trouble for Jordan. Armed with killer secrets—and body to die for—she’ll bring Jordan to his knees as they both take on the most deadly mission they have ever faced. Because this time, it’s personal…
So for those of you who follow this series we finally get to Jordan's book. I don't know about you but I've been waiting and waiting for Jordan to finally get his just desserts. lol You get to meet Tehya in the book Wild Card Nathan Malone,Jordan's nephews book. Her father was a evil man and Tehya has spent most of her life running from him or his associates. The time for Jordan's Elite Ops team has come to end and so everyone goes their separate ways. Tehya doesn't know what she's going to do Elite Ops has been her life for 8 years ever since they saved her from being alone after she is finally freed from her father. Tehya finds what she thinks might be a place to belong but after a while she feels like she's being watched. She also feels forgotten because no one not even Jordan tried to contact her in the months after leaving Elite Ops headquarters. Jordan finds out someone knows who she is and where she is and he goes to check on her and that's when the fight to live a normal life starts for Teyha. Question is when the smoke clears will Jordan be there or not. That is if she survives. Lots of action and hot sex in this book. You see Jordan be such a hard ass in all the previous book it's fun to see him squirm in this one finally. Poor Tehya goes thru the emotional ringer. The only problem i had was a few places where some of the sentences didn't make sense and some grammatical errors but you always seem to get some of those in every book and i can usually over look them. Check out Live Wire and read the first chapter and check out the other books in this series by going to Lora Leigh's website by clicking here. I'm giving Live Wire by Lora Leigh 4 and 1/2 Modokker Book Pick stars.

Book Review: Killer Secrets by author Lora leigh
Killer Secrets is the 5th book in the The Seals series by Lora Leigh. This one is about Ian Richards Fuentes. Ian makes it seems he is going rogue from the elite ops Durango team. You see his father is Diego Fuentes. Leader of a drug cartel and all around bad guy. Ian made plans to kill him and Sorrell another bad guy for what they did to his best friend Nathan Malone ( book 1 of Elite OPS series) and several other nefarious deeds. He had to make it appear he went to the other side and take over the drug cartel from his dad and make everyone think he's following in his dads footsteps. He underestimates his friends in Durango team and one Miss Kira Porter. Kira is a contract agent for DHS ( Dept of Homeland Security) She has a thing for Ian but also she has a mission. Keep him from killing Diego. DHS wants him alive and Ian would like him dead. Bigger threat is a man called Sorrell though. No one knows who he is and what he looks like. What they do know is he's a killer. He is responsible for Killing Kira's parents and her uncle Jason's fiance years ago. Kira became a agent with Uncle Jason's help for revenge. Will she get it? What will happen with Ian and Kira once Ian finds out one of the reasons Kira is there is to keep him from killing Diego. Below is a little blip from Killer Secrets.
THE FIGHT OF HIS LIFE
As the illegitimate son of Diego Fuentes, Ian Richards faces danger at every turn. Neither his father nor his fellow Navy SEALs knows which side he’s fighting for—or against. Which is exactly how the game must be played…until Agent Porter enters the picture.
STIRS HER DESIRE FOR LIVING
Kira Porter, an undercover agent for the Department of Homeland Security, shadows Ian on his journey. She thinks she can see the real man beneath Ian’s bad-boy exterior…but the ever-elusive Ian keeps her guessing at every turn. Is his goal to protect the Fuentes cartel from French terrorists? Or to do his father in for good? The only thing Kira does know is that her attraction to Ian is a time-bomb waiting to explode. With time running out on the Fuentes mission, she and Ian are drawn ever close to the edge of desire—and even closer into the line of fire…
You can read a excerpt by clicking here. You can also find out about all the other books in the series as well as all Lora Leighs other books. If you've not read any of this series I'd start with the first one Reno's Chance( Honk if you like real men ..Anthology). You should also check out the Elie Ops series for related books FYI Lora Leigh genre is Erotica. Keep that in mind if you are interested in reading any of her books. I give Killer Secrets 4 Modokker Book Picks stars. Lots of great action sexy scenes.

Book review: Hidden Agendas by author Lora Leigh
I admit i've been slacking on my reviews of late. I've been reading just not having the time to write a review. Recently i picked up a book of author Lora Leighs at the book store. This got me looking for her website and seeing what other books she has written. If you don't know of Lora Leigh she writes Erotica. From what I've read of her books some have a little some o have a lot. I think it depends on your comfort level and what you like which books of hers i would read. I've read several and have no qualms recommending them to anyone who asks. I would point out though that these are definitely not for those under the age of 18. That being said let's talk about Hidden Agendas. This is the 4th book in the series. I have not read the ones before this one but plan to. This series hooks in with the Elite ops series as well. You'll recognize the some of the same characters in both series. I've read only a couple of the Elite ops books but i'm working on the rest.
Here is a little taste of Hidden Agendas.
SAVING LIVES IS HIS MISSION.
Tough-as-nails Navy SEAL Kell Kreiger is the best there is at searching, rescuing, and taking no prisoners…yet even the rush of ever-more dangerous missions isn’t enough to satisfy him. Haunted by a tortured past, Kell seeks distraction in a secret world of dark intimacies. But when Emily Stanton, the one ray of light in Kell’s shadowy existence, is pursued by a ruthless drug lord, the rules of the game suddenly change—and Kell will have to go deeper undercover than he ever imagined…
SAVING HER IS HIS PASSION.
Emily has loved Kell ever since her father, a prominent politician, rescued him from a brutal life on the streets. They were kids then, too young to act on what was growing between them…but now that Emily is ready, the handsome, headstrong SEAL has decided he’s no good for her. Ever since he rescued her from Diego Fuentes’ compound, Kell’s only duty has been to keep Emily safe. But Fuentes isn’t finished with Emily—or Kell. And to protect Emily, Kell has no choice but to lay himself—body, soul, and secrets—bare…and fight against evil with all his heart.
Sound pretty good? Kell has always had a thing for Emily. He tried to deny it but once she is kidnapped he finds he can't deny what he feels for her any longer. Emily has also had an attraction to Kell but he always seemed to stay away from her. Emily tried for 2 years to live her life to get back to what she lost when she was kidnapped. Her father sent body guard after body guard but she quickly got rid of all of them and then her life is threatened again. Kell is assigned to pretend to be her lover and protect her. The pretend doesn't last long and they find their way to each other and Kell tries to protect her from the bad guys. Action packed and full of hot sexy scenes. I give Hidden Agendas 5 out of 5 Modokker Book Pick stars. This was one of those books i wanted to read in one sitting!

Review: Maverick by author Lora Leigh
As i mentioned in a previous post i was browsing the book section at Walmart and picked up this book as well and entered the author and name info in my iphone so i could find it at the library. I ended up getting it through my states interloaning library system. In Michigan this would be Mel.org. Check with your local library if you live in another state to see if your state has this. If your library does not have a book you can borrow if from another library using your library card. They send it to your library for you to check out and read. Here you get it for 3 weeks and can renew it if that's now long enough. I use it often.
Getting back to Lora Leigh's book Maverick. Turns out this is one in a series called Elite Ops. You can view the whole list and get more info
Below is a little back cover blurb.
IN A DANGEROUS GAME
Micah Sloane knows almost everything there is to know about Risa Clay, including the vicious betrayal she endured years ago and the distrust she’s harbored ever since. The only way for the Elite Ops agent to uncover an assassin—and banish the ghosts of his own dark past—is to use Risa as bait. But nothing has prepared him for her disarming blend of innocence and sensuality, or for his overwhelming need to protect her…
DESIRE CAN BE A DEADLY DISTRACTION
Risa has spent six years rebuilding her life. And now, to save it, she must pose as Micah’s lover and draw a killer into the open. It’s a risky plan—especially with a man as powerfully seductive as Micah. But, as their charade becomes reality, Risa realizes the greatest danger may lie in losing her heart forever…
You can read a excerpt here.
The Elite Operations, ELITE OPs was created to fight against that terror. A six man force working independent of government protocol or oversight, created to do what the others can’t do. They have only one directive. Success of the mission. No matter what it takes.
You can go to Lora Leigh's website to find out more about the Elite Ops series and all the players involved in this series. This book is a full action packed book mixed with hot sexy romance. Risa's been through hell and Micah knows all about it and he's drawn to her for some reason. Unfortunately he has to use her to catch a mad man who killed his mother and was pretty much responsible for his fathers death as well. Can they find their way through all the chaos to find love as well? There are four books in this series which i plan to read. I give this book 5 out of 5 Modokker Book Pick stars. Happy reading!
