From #1 bestselling author Lora Leigh comes Collision Point, part of the thrilling Brute Force series—packed with powerful men, steely women, and explosive passion.
SHE’S NOTHING BUT TROUBLE

This is a book filled with action, intrigue, betrayal, angst, heartbreak, passion, desire and undying love and sex. In other words, a very adult story.  I liked this story but had some reservations about it. I liked the connection that Riordan and Amara had that had an almost magical element to it.  I liked the Irish explanation of what the Malone men were like when they found their own true love. 
Amara had been tortured so cruelly before she was finally rescued and now she is fighting to get back to normal.  She is also fighting with her father and is involve in more than one screaming match with him.  Most of it being about treated like a child.  Her father was trying so hard to protect her than it is often manipulative and stifling.  And if that wasn't enough she can feel danger coming back at her, triggered by some so-called accidents.  It sure would help if she got her memory back and she needed to do it fast.  Not only to save her life but to understand her feelings about Riordan.    Her body sure remembers him but her mind not so much.  I felt that there was a bit too much of the detailed sex part.  Although it was well written, I found myself skipping over a lot of it after awhile.   And when she does experience things about him, is it memories or dreams?  That question will be answered in the end. 

There were also good secondary people in the book.  One of those was Riordan's grandfather, although he is only seen a few times.   Also his brother who had his own bit of a story included.  It added without taking over the story.

There is a great twist coming towards the end of the book.  Many questions but not all are answered. 


I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and this is my honest opinion of it.
