After Agent Kendall Frasier's partner is shot and killed by friendly fire during a drug bust, she has to go through psychiatric evaluation and a forced vacation. Thankfully, the agency has an island retreat for these types of things. Yes, the retreat has seen better days since the government took it from the drug lord who built it, but it's better than undergoing the evaluation in the big city. Too bad Agent Zane Vincent, the agent who shot her partner, is along as well. Now, if she can only hold onto her anger so she doesn't let go of her panties.This is the first story I've read by Megan Hart. I've heard great things about her and was eager to try something by her. I'm trying to expand my typical-reading-wings and try new genres, but I'm becoming more and more convinced that erotica is not my thing.  I enjoy a good romance and some steamy sex scenes, but stories that are all sex just don't work for me.There is absolutely nothing wrong with the story nor Ms. Hart's writing. I really enjoyed the idea of a government facility in the Caribbean set up to help agents overcome the pitfalls and drawbacks of the job, to heal physically and mentally from their losses. I liked the secondary characters that were introduced, too, most especially Kevin and Jean. I enjoyed the banter between Kendall and Zane--my favorite part was when Zane instigated the "shave and a haircut" knock on the wall right after...well; it was just a nice touch.I did feel like Kendall let go of her "hate" and "anger" toward Zane a little too quick. She seemed all tied in knots over her partner's death one minute and totally okay with everything the very next. It just didn't seem real. I mean, I get her true feelings toward her partner, but she sure seemed to be "fixed" awful fast.All in all this isn't a bad story; I just realize I'm not the target market for this type of book.  I'm sure fans of Megan Hart will devour this story up and beg for more since it is a rather short one.  So, don't take it from me, pick it up for yourself to decide.Oh, and Zane is hot. ;)(53 pages)
