I love the closeness of the group of extra-Special Forces men who work together to solve the mystery and the feisty woman who captures their hearts.

Another Great Book

I enjoyed reading Lovers Key as much as I did island Sanctuary. I love romance mixed with murder and mayhem. C.F. Francis has a great mix of the two.

Such a great second book with the James gang on Sanibel Island! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and looked forward to digging in a little bit each evening. I liked the reoccurring characters and the way that C.F. built upon their already strong and individual bases. Josie and Steve's relationship sparkled and their history was so unique that their scenes together sizzled. I'm hoping the author pens another round for the James Gang, the personalities and location are addictive!

I could not wait for Lovers Key to be published,I was excited to see what the group would be up to next. I was not disappointed ! This book has twist and turn, brotherhood, romance and mystery. I could not put the book down, I was transported into a mystery that bring you to tear, make you laugh and makes you fighting mad. I can not wait to see what the James Gang gets into next.

Lovers Key is the second book in a fast paced series about a group of Special Forces guys and their romantic interests. The book is easy to read, and hard to put down. CF Francis has a way of painting the scene with words to it's easy to imagine yourself right in the action. Definitely a good read!

Steamy, sultry, suspenseful ... what a great read! C. F. Francis has done it again! Just enough intrigue and suspense to keep you guessing. Sultry and steamy to have you wiggling in your seat! ;-). This author does not disappoint. Hope she's already working on book 3!!!

Bogged down with some of the descriptions but was a good read. Enough action to keep you involved with a twist you don't see coming at the end.
