Wonderful story with a plot that takes the reader into the realities of life in Afghanistan under the Taliban, to a tropical island loaded with love and intrigue. Sexy hero Zach is a delicious combination of tough and tender. Heroine Arianna is a great character that won't take no for an answer. A great storyline that keeps the reader wanting more.

The author hit all the marks for a great romance read...The intrigue, the cat and mouse game with the characters and the "steamy scenes" ... Perfect!

Ann Heathman grounds Deny Tomorrow’s sexy love story by placing it in the grim context of war-torn Afghanistan. The frame of the novel, a nail-biter, where hair-covered special ops Zach meets burqa-covered photojournalist Arianna, lends veritas to its central story. The fact that neither of the future lovers can see the other’s face presages the journey ahead, as they struggle to know and tame each other.
Drugged and whisked away to a tropical island and, later, a secluded estate, Arianna’s task is to know her recent past. What happened to her under the Taliban, and how did she get here? Most important, who abducted her and why?
Back on home turf and free of his face foliage, Zach has no time to celebrate a lucrative job well-done for the CIA. Most of all, he must ensure the ongoing safety of the woman whose life he saved. She now holds an unparalleled claim on him. He stages a second clandestine snatch and stashes her away inside the gates of his paradise. Now he has her on her hands full time. How will he keep the snooping tartar from blowing his cover, let alone ruining his private life? For sure she’s not going to let him hold the reins to this runaway disaster.
Constant conflict between the strong-willed combatants creates suspense and frustration for all the players, especially when Zach and Arianna are the only ones who fail to see what’s meant to be. They’re falling for each other, but can they admit it without endangering everything they care about?
Other than the interesting, hair-raising storyline, I love the leisurely world-building in this novel, the appealing and true-to-life lovers, and the author’s beautiful voice and smooth story-telling. Okay, I love everything about this book. I read it in two settings and then dived back in. This is beautiful, loin-tingling romance, with nothing fluffy about it.
Five stars. Judith Kammeraad
