About the author

Lisa Hendrix grew up in the small towns and 'burbs of Colorado, reading anything she could get her hands on, from fantasy to history to collections of folk tales. Her ongoing Immortal Brotherhood series brings those influences together with cursed Viking warriors in a world where history and myth collide to create love stories for the ages.

Having successfully launched two competent young adults into the world, Lisa lives in southern Oregon with her computer-jockey husband, a chubby black cat of indeterminate intelligence, and Napoleon, a wee rescue poodle with attitude.

Reviews

[Heike · Rating 4 out of 5]

Two scientists (super organized, "boring" woman and adventurer type guy) try to woe a grand giver billionaire in the Caribbean. Very hot and full of romance, fun and wit, with one of the best sex scenes I've ever read, and I usually skip those ;)
I would even give it 4.5 stars but can not quite make it 5 for the a bit hasty last quarter of the book.
