Blurb:
His revenge will change her life
forever...
Cuban-American
TV reporter Rebecca Menendez's success comes from playing by the rules. When
she's kidnapped by a fierce and intensely handsome man who needs her help. However,
all of those rules seem pointless. Nothing could have prepared her for being
taken hostage...or the irresistible reward if she complies: information about
her long-thought-dead father.
Antonio
Vega has spent almost every day of his adult life dreaming of revenging his
father's death. With his sister's life and freedom in jeopardy, Antonio isn't
taking any chances. But once Rebecca and Antonio are in Cuba, they're immersed
in a world of corruption, deceit, and betrayal. It's a deadly game...and there
are no rules.
Review by Rochelle:
According to her biography, Linda Bond is an Emmy-winning journalist. She’s able to draw on her work experiences when she creates her characters, and has even reported from Cuba. That’s where she met her husband and adopted one of her sons. So when she describes the view of the Havana skyline from the wall of the Castillo De Los Tres Reyes Del Morro or Morrow Castle, or the feel of balancing on that wall, it’s from being there. She has seen the poverty of that island country firsthand, and felt the struggle of its people for a better life.
In addition to putting you there as though you’re seeing it through her cameraman’s lens, Ms. Bond takes you on a nail-biting ride across the Florida Straight, through the Cuban jungle, and into the heart of Havana. And along the way, you meet and fall in love with the people. You feel the hunger, the poverty, and the heartbreak of broken families. I once went an entire school year in which I only got to spend five minutes with my children. I spoke to them weekly on the phone, but it was one of the worst years of my life. I can’t imagine going ten years without seeing them. I think I’d die. Yet so many Cuban families are broken with no hope of ever again seeing their loved ones, because that trip can be fatal, and it’s one way only.
Oh, yeah—Cuba Undercover has a hot hero and plenty of sexual tension as well. You’ll devour it, and want more from this journalist-turned-novelist. I can’t wait to see what awards Ms. Bond wins in this phase of her career.
