Rick Latrobe has a lot on his mind right now. Being one of the partners in Phoenix Agency is only part of it; his highest is the successful completion of his job in Iraq. Rick knows that the odds are against them even though Phoenix has conducted this job with the same intensity as any other job. But there is something just beyond his reach that is giving Rick a bad feeling about this job.Kelly Monroe just stopped to see her grandfather on her way back home from a vacation. Kelly knows the basics about Phoenix just because her grandfather works for them. But she has never met any of the men behind it until this trip. Kelly isn't sure what surprises her most, her reaction to Rick or her dog's, Xena's. Xena is a Caucasian Ovcharka breed; a very unusual dog in that they can bond with one person is a psychic way. Xena and Kelly have that bond so when Xena goes immediately to Rick, Kelly is shocked.Rick is more than attracted to Kelly and wastes no time in acting on it. Time isn't his friend since he is due to head back to Iraq soon. Both Rick and Kelly know that there is something unusual about their attraction, but they also want to know where it will lead. When Rick is hurt, it's Xena who alerts Kelly. When it happens a second time in Iraq, both Kelly and Xena know they need to be with Rick to keep him safe. Kelly, Rick and Xena become a great team while untangling who is behind the things going on in Iraq and who wants Rick dead. No one is going to get to Rick or Kelly with Xena on the job, something it takes Rick and the Phoenix group a while to understand. Can Xena keep her humans save while helping them find just who is behind everything going on?Love can come in many forms, like a pushy physic dog that seems to know just whom her human needs to be with. Kelly and Rick discover just how insistent Xena can be in Delicious Danger. The erotic passion between Rick and Kelly was tempered just right by Xena's actions to the danger that constantly surrounded them. I have to say I loved Xena in here. No one was going to get in her way - either in bringing Kelly and Rick together or in keeping them safe from the danger. Kelly and Rick's love story was the focus but there were several times when it was Xena who stole the scene. I was surprised when I found out who was ultimately behind everything that happened but not that Kelly, Rick and Xena had no problem bringing him down. Delicious Danger is erotic and suspenseful and has a third party in this love story that will have you smiling at her antics.Jo for Joyfully Reviewed
