enjoyable military science romantic suspense

Saber Wynter knew she broke her safety first clause when she remained in town long enough to date the same jerk three times; Larry even had the nerve to provide her with a "pity fuck" as he insists she is way to skinny to be desirable. On the run since she escaped the horrors of Dr. Whitney's terrorizing experiments that turned her into a female GhostWalker, Saber knows it is past time to move on even if she likes doing her radio talk show on the Wyoming station owned by wheelchair bound Jess Calhoun.

Former Navy Seal Jess lost the use of his legs on a military mission. He wants Saber with all his heart, but knows he must go slowly or she will bolt as she always does when something frightens her. He wants to know what has left her ready to run so that he can help her overcome that demon. She shields the same feelings from him, but also conceals that she a GhostWalker with special skills; ironically besides hiding his heart he masks the fact that he too is a GhostWalker. Neither is aware that someone else is watching both of them and when each slips their cover a little, they wonder if they fell in love with the enemy.

The changing relationship between the lead couple provides a refreshing sixth Ghostwalker Game tale as they first are employer-employee, become friends, fall in love, and become suspicious of one another, etc. Thus readers see deep inside the souls of Saber and Jess. In fact the characterizations lead to less action than usual, yet one of the best in Christine Feehan's modern day military science romantic suspense saga (see DEADLY GAME and CONSPIRACY GAME).

Less plot and more personal interaction

I have read all the ghostwalker books in order. The series began strong and tight. It seems to be unralveling as it goes. Several of the plot points set up earlier and not being used or are changed significantly. This is leading to discordance in the story line.

An example is Whitney. He was set up in the first book as a man of brain instead of heart. His intellect dictated that he use people as lab rats. The manipulation was to be for state defense. Unfortunately, power leads to more power and ultimately corrects. Whitney was corupted, but killed when he wa no longer useful. Now in the series of books that come afterward, Whitney is alive andhas grown to be some all seeing, all knowing person - a puppet master. Whitney is neccessary as a reason for all the genetic enhancements.

The reasons for all the different factions is just not understandable. The series would have been better just following the original premise of Whitney being dead and the ghostwalkers saving others from the program and from people who would like to use them.

I got the feeling in this book at Mr. Feehan needs to take a vacaton. She usually writes better than this. Working on so many idfferent series may not be so good either.

WOW!!

Feehan does it again. I loved this couple- and of course the GhostWalkers!
My only complaint is the books don't come quick enough! Can't wait for the next installment. Would love to see Patsy get her own storyline.

veeery nice - more stuff going on,

Don't listen to the negative reviews here! The book is great. A perfekt addition to Game series. Dr. Whitney is not the only bad guy any more! Viva la conspiracy.

Good Addition to the Ghostwalker Series

Just finished this book last weekend. I'm curious to see Christine Feehan wandering away from the male characters she established in "Night Game", "Shadow Game", and "Mind Game" to instead explore men from the second Ghostwalker team discovered, like the Norton brothers and Jess. Against the Norton brothers, Jess isn't as sexy at first. But he does build up a lot of steam as the characters develop.

Jess is a crippled Ghostwalker male who still manages to be menacing to enemies and powerful during sex. The banter between Jess and Saber is little petulant on Saber's part, but I didn't find it annoying like one of the reviewers. Jess is the frustrated male who's hiding his attraction as best he can because he's afraid of scaring her off, or that she won't want him.

Neither of their Ghostwalker skills are revealed until far into the book. I began to wonder if either of them had any. I did want Jess to be a lot more badass than she started out to be, and she developed nicely into a strong female character who has a very deadly Ghostwalker power. A power Jess helps her to realize can be used for good as well.

The evil doctor still lingers around the edges of the story. We see Lily and Ryland, the Norton brothers and their wives, but the story is really about Jess and Saber's romance and the trust they find in each other. All in all, it was a good read and had a satisfying end.
