Medusa’s Master
Captain Kat Kim, leader of the all-female Medusa squad, lives by the warrior's code. Trained in an ancient warrior tradition, she can scale a wall in complete silence. But when she's paired with Special Forces Captain Jeff Steiger, she faces new danger.
Steiger is all-American, from his blue eyes to his sun-streaked hair, and his laid-back manner goes against Kat's control-freak ways. When the two hunt for a high-end art thief, their opposite styles combust. And as mysterious commandos turn the job deadly, Kat must ditch her steely discipline and surrender to the desire that threatens to take them both down....

This was a typical Harlequin romance and perfectly displays the reason I rarely read them anymore. Way too predictable and there just wasn't any spark between the hero and heroine. Within a few minutes of meeting, Kat kicked Jeff's ass twice and while staring in her eyes when getting up, he declares they are soul mates. Then precedes to comment repeatedly about marrying and having children. Come on, get real. Just not a believable scenario.

I enjoyed Kats & Jeff book. It definitely was different then previous Medusa books. I felt like the relationship was a tad bit rushed. Other then that it was good.

I read this just after finishing Cindy Dees' "Close Pursuit." It's been on my shelf for a while, together with a slew of Harlequin romances I intend to clear off of my shelf during the summer commute to and from work.
The plot line of this book was engaging in the sense that Kat, the female special ops lead, was talented and accomplished in contributing to the case she worked on with Jeff, the male lead of the story.
I'll repeat a point I made in my last review, which is, Harlequin romances tend to be a bit predictable. However, the crime scenes in the book were fast-paced, and unpredictable. Kudos to the author for maintaining a high level of interest, and in writing a page-turner. I finished this book within two sittings.

Captain Kat Kim of the all female Medusa Special Ops team is assigned to join Captain Jeff Steiger's Special Ops squad to capture an elusive art thief. This is a fun book. It stretches reality, but it is fun to contemplate a female being able to show a male Special Ops group a thing or two. Of course, Kat and Jeff fall in love improbably fast, but this is a fantasy anyway.
