Blood and Fire

August 1, 2011
Bestseller McKenna strikes gold again with the steamy eighth romantic suspense (after Fade to Midnight) in the McCloud Brothers series. Bad dreams haunt Bruno Ranieri, Kev McCloud's adopted brother, and he's half-convinced they're real. Hooking up with sexy Lily Parr gives Bruno relief from nightmares, unless you count the three people who attack Lily. Bruno kills them and the pair take off. Lily's convinced her drug-addicted father's recent murder somehow links her past with Bruno's, but unraveling the truth calls for reinforcements, and soon the ex-military Special Forces McCloud brothers are facing down a super-scientist and his humanoid robots. Lots of references to previous McCloud escapades and characters obscure the thriller plot for those who haven't read the earlier novels, but the riveting story, frequent sex scenes, and believable science-fictional details will keep readers fully engaged.
