Lucy Monroe Ready

READY, I believe is one of Lucy Monroe's best. It's not just the storyline or being such an enjoyable read, it was the characters Lise Barton and Joshua Watt's; two very strong, passionate and intriguing people. At first glance and meeting they were powerfully attracted and drawn to each other, and as the reader will learn when they meet again under different circumstances, their incredible journey teaches them that "loving someone shouldn't make you less than what you are, it should make you more".

Joshua Watts, a former Army Ranger, security expert and mercenary is on a mission to bring Lise home for a family holiday at his sister's request. Little do any of them realize that Lise is being stalked, and has moved to Seattle in order to protect her family. From the moment of Josh's arrival and meeting with Lise, their journey begins full of suspense, intrigue and absolute passion.

This is the first book about three incredibly sexy, handsome and intriguing men, and I guarantee you'll love it! For something fun to view, please see READY's flash movie at:
