The Woman Left Behind by Linda Howard
3.0
Working at an elite para-military organization has its perks, sometimes they even let you play really cool video games not available to the public during your lunchtime! Super cool, until Jina finds out the game wasn't really a game at all - it was a test that she passed with flying colors, a test that has now landed her into a crazy training program to get her ready to deploy with a GO-Team.
Refusing to quit despite the crazy training, Jina the IT nerd eventually begins to hold her own with her assigned team of super fit action heroes. She holds her own even though she fervently believes her sexy team leader Levi wants her to fail.
Eventually Jina is fully certified and begins missions with her team. Over the course of year she alternates between being bored, scared, and amped. Jina and Levi hid their massive sexual tension from each other and the team, as but they are both committed to the team. Then Jina gets left behind...
My first Linda Howard, but I enjoyed! Fans may quibble about the very slow burn of this romance. I felt the tension between the characters but I was a little bit mystified over the kinda instant lust/love and the non-interaction that took place for a large part of the book.
Thank you to Avon for the free ARC!!!
