Afterglow (Lodestone) [Mass Market Paperback]


Afterglow (Lodestone) [Mass Market Paperback]

Product Description


Pleasure with a price.

A high-profile celebrity wedding in Monaco is the kind of A-list event security specialist Rand Maguire excels at. Everything goes like clockwork, until guests start inexplicably losing all their inhibitions . . . .

Painful secrets from the past.

Rand is no stranger to the effects of Rapture. His chemist father’s attempt at a cure for depression caused Rand’s mother’s death years ago, and put his father away for her murder. Now someone is circulating Rapture in a campaign of terror, intending to manufacture and sell it on a global scale. But with no leads, Rand feels the heat.

Passion with no limits.

Sexy Lodestone agent Dakota North is sent to help Rand kick-start his search, armed only with her uncanny sixth sense. But what they discover in their race across Europe is more far-reaching and lethal than an erotic street drug. From a Barcelona bank heist to a million-dollar arms deal in Paris, Dakota and Rand give in to an insatiable craving for each other in nights of pure carnal delight, no senses left untouched. No Rapture necessary.

My Review:

Rand Maguire was a former stunt driver turned security specialist for the Hollywood elite.  He certainly had survival and escape techniques you won't believe.

Dakota aka Doctor North is a Lodestone agent who is a former employee of the company that made Rapture a very potent and deadly highly addictive sex drug which lowers your inhibitions .  She has a history with Rand which turned very bitter, viscous and hurtful accusations against Dakota.  She never got to tell her side of the story.

Rand Maguire is providing security at a high-profile wedding in Monaco when the guests suddenly lose their inhibitions and are in horny state.  He suspects the drug Rapture is the culprit and calls his friend Zach the owner of Lodestone who assigns Dakota North to the case.

Dakota used to work in the lab working on Rapture before it was deemed to deadly.  She assumed all records were destroyed.

I thought Rand was hot and sexy but I hated the way he treated Dakota because he blames her for the death of his mother and the incarceration of his dad.  He was rude, cruel and horrible to her.  He never gave her a chance to tell her side of the story.

The romance was very hot and steamy but I thought the first sex scene when both were affected by Rapture was kind of strange.


3.5/5
