Summary: An eyeopening experience!
Comment: I was very impressed with Jennifer Blake's story of Chloe and Wade. Although this book does stray from Blake's usual tale of rural Louisiana life, it is well written and reflects the political climate of our time. The references made to the RAWA movement and the harships women suffer under the Taliban rule had a huge impact on me. I truly enjoyed this book and it will be saved on my "Books to keep shelf". Additionally if you enjoy Suzanne Brockmann, I think you will like this book.

Summary: Good Almost Historical Romance
Comment: I love historical romances. When I picked up this book to read, I knew it would be a romance, but I didn't know it was going to be so based on real life. The story is set in a fiction place that is under the Taliban rule. I found it frightening yet well written. I think the character Chloe is very brave and a bit foolish. She's brave because she wants to help her female friends, but foolish because she wants to stay. It is not a safe place for her. Her mother was killed for not having her face covered by a burqa when she ran outside to protect a child who was being attacked by vicious dogs. I also feel her mother was foolish to move there. I'm not sure of how long this barbaric treatment of women has been going on, but I'm certain it was like this when she and Chloe moved there. Why would anybody want to put layers of clothes on in 100 degree heat or more? I think it is insane. Wade sounds like a dream come true. He must also be incredibly patient to put up with Chloe's stubborness. This is a must read for everyone. It may be to close to real life events, but this is what makes a book exciting.

Summary: READY for the next!
Comment: Wade Benedict, fulfilling his friend's final wish that his daughter be rescued from the Arabian land where she moved with her mother. Unfortunately, despite the harsh conditions, or rather, because of them, the lady in question, does not want to be rescued, preferring to stay, fighting for freedom. Wade, however, will go to any length to get her out, though when Chloe realizes she can continue her work back home in Louisiana, and that her cruel stepbrother's plans for her marriage to gain her money will place her life into a literal hell, she agrees.
The battle to get out of the country is bloody, but they manage to survive, only to find that it has followed them home, and is not a Jihad, a holy war, that pulls in the entire clan into even more fights, barely escaping with their lives. Perhaps of equal importance are the battles of the heart Chloe and Wade face as they must decide what to do with the relationship they have found themselves suddenly to be in, each with their own issues to face before they can claim the love that awaits them, if they survive.
***** In the most exciting novel of the series, WADE concludes Ms Blake's Bayou Brothers line, making me sorry I have missed all but one of the others, if they are all this fine.
Readers get to catch up with characters who have surely become their friends in past books, and to meet a dynamic new couple. Heart pounding excitement never lets up, though romantic interludes amidst it all light up the pages with passion instead of gunfire. Every character is vibrantly drawn, and the storyline is one that could be ripped from current life as the Taliban and their world seem to haunt our everyday lives. Brava, Ms. Blake. Perhaps she can find another Benedict cousin hiding in the swamplands, if we are lucky.
