What happens when a guy is one of five children and he's the only make? Yep, you got it four women sure they know what's best for him. Sure to meddle in his life and sure to make everything their business. Add to that the best friend of one of his sisters.. the one woman who has fascinated him since they were children. The woman who actually seduced and left him right on the brink of adulthood. Yep, no way will he ever have a moments privacy. Except, somehow Daniel has managed to hide the fact that he was bitten by a werewolf.. shoot he's managed to hide the fact that there are werewolves. Except his sisters are on to him. They KNOW something is wrong and they are determined to save him. Since they don't know about the werewolves, they will be happy to just save him from the "Evil One" the woman they think he is going to marry. Gathering together they come up with a plan.. Send in Melissa to seduce him away from the "Evil One". Nina Croft brings family dynamics to a whole new level in Operation Saving Daniel.At eighteen Melissa seduced Daniel for a number of reasons, first and foremost she loved him. But she didn't believe in happily ever after and Melissa totally loved him and left him. Now ten years later, after a near death experience Melissa is back in town with the idea of getting Daniel "out of her system". Explain to me how does one get the love of one's life out of their system? Of course, Daniel's three surviving sisters have other ideas. There is something wrong with Daniel and no one is quite sure what it is. They just know he is close to becoming engaged to a truly awful woman and well Lissa seduced him once, can't she do it again?When Lissa left, Daniel always planned to give her space but to eventually reconnect with her. He understood that love like that.. well it wasn't a fairytale. He knew she ran because she was afraid but that's ok, he could give her the time to grow up. Except.. a local werewolf Alpha had other ideas. He wanted Daniel for his brain.. so he did what all evil leaders would do. He bit him. Turning Daniel into a werewolf wasn't enough though, in order to get Daniel to cooperate he had to have his sister killed right in front of Daniel. Now Daniel is afraid for every member of his family. But he's not quite the whipped wolf, Ethan thinks he is, he has a plan! And he doesn't need is sisters and Lissa around to muck it up!I really really enjoyed this book. There was just something about it. It wasn't an intense twisted multi layered book, it was pretty basic.. two people fell in love, one turns into a wolf.. Ok, not so basic. But there wasn't a lot of subplot and questions. Just excellent writing! I am hoping this will become a series because there are a lot of really likable secondary characters. Daniel's sister, Lissa's brother, the decent members of the pack, the British Government.. This has tons of potential for an exciting series. And maybe that is just wishful thinking on my part because this book was that good. I don't want to say goodbye!ShauniThis review is based on the ARC of Operation Saving Daniel, provided by netgalley
