"Series is fantastic! IT Lucas did it again. Can't wait for next book. I could read this series a number of times. The characters are so diverse & the story line is awesome. If you've read Black Dagger Brotherhood you have to try this series."
"Love, love, love this series!!! IT Lucas has such a gift for writing. She takes a character like Victor who doesn't show a lot of emotion, and gets you so invested in his story that you are rooting for a happy ending for him. I can't WAIT for the next book in the series to see what happens!!!!"
"This is a series not to be missed. Truly, one of the best Paranormal Romance series ever written."
"FANTASTIC SERIES. This series is absolutely one of my favorite. I love being able to follow the lives of the characters from book to book and keep up with what is going on in their lives. In DARK OPERATIVE, Bridget meets Turner and the possibility of a long awaited love presents itself, but with obstacles on the horizon, there is a possibility that their romance will not be realized. As usual, I am anxiously awaiting the next installment. Oh, did I say I LOVE this series!!"
"Brilliant as always. Totally captivating! This series gets me Every. Single. Time. My heart goes out to Bridget and Turner. I hope they are lovemates!
---------------------------------------------------
As a brilliant strategist and the only human entrusted with the secret of immortals’ existence, Turner is both an asset and a liability to the clan. His request to attempt transition into immortality as an alternative to cancer treatments cannot be denied without risking the clan’s exposure. On the other hand, approving it means risking his premature death. In both scenarios, the clan will lose a valuable ally.
When the decision is left to the clan’s physician, Turner makes plans to manipulate her by taking advantage of her interest in him.
Will Bridget fall for the cold, calculated operative? Or will Turner fall into his own trap?
---------------------------------------------------
The loneliness didn't bother Turner. He was entirely satisfied with his own company. Even sex wasn't a strong enough motivator to seek out partners other than the paid kind.
Dealing with people in any capacity other than professional was a strain. He wasn't a charmer who knew how to pick up women, and he didn't arm himself with the latest jokes and sports statistics to entertain company. The things he liked to talk about were as effective at prompting others' hasty departure as small talk was for him.
Bridget, however, was not only highly intelligent but one of the most alluring women he had ever encountered, maybe because she wasn't as transparent to him as most people were.
And she was hot.
As much as Turner liked to believe he was all brain and not susceptible to primal urges, apparently they were still there, lying dormant until the right woman triggered their resurgence.
