Operation Saving Daniel . Nina CroftReview from Jeannie Zelos Book Reviews.I love Nina’s Bitter-sweet Magic and Blood novels so thought I’d try this one. I'm a great fan of paranormal romance when its done well, and having enjoyed Nina's writing I thought I knew what to expect. As ever though Nina throws in a few curve-balls....Anyway, Melissa, I liked her – as a die hard romantic I love the idea of still loving someone after ten years of no contact...Through a combination of circumstances Lissa finds herself back with her old friends and their brother Daniel. He's about to be engaged though and the sisters call his girlfriend The Evil One. After meeting Sophia Lissa can see why, but Daniel is so changed from the man she remembered, and doesn't act like a man in love. So she tries to see what’s happening with the pair, but gets sucked into danger and a world she never envisaged. Still loving Daniel she does her best to help him, even though he wants her out of the danger.Its a fun read, with some tender and sensual scenes between Lissa and Daniel. Sophia was a great bitch, I do think a “good” bad person adds to the drama in a romance ,and in fact I’d like to have seen a bit more of her and Lissa together, but its a fairly short book so it's inevitable that scenes had to be chosen carefully to keep the flow balanced.Its not an in-depth, dark, heavy paranormal but a sweet and easy romance with a few dangerous moments thrown in. I enjoyed it as a light relief type book, but its not one I’d keep for re reading. It's currently priced at 0.99/$1.61 for 200 pages so its excellent value if you like a light and easy to read fantasy romance.Stars: four, a good fun read.NB: ARC supplied via Entangled Publishing.
