Book Reviews of Mackenzie's Mission

Book Review: #2 in THE MACKENZIE SAGA --- #1 SON
Summary: 5 Stars

It took Colonel Joe "Breed" Mackenzie till he was 35 to get hit with cupid's arrow. Must have seemed imperative to develop him into a legend.

Joe loved his aircraft but was curious about the replacement to the laser division, Caroline Evans. His mental assessment of her kicked his hormones into overdrive. Her opening sass caught his attention.

Caroline got along with most of her workers Cal Gilchrist and Yates but had problems with Adrian. The resolution of their sniping at each other was a bit of a surprise.

Didn't like the slowing down of the meat of the story to concentrate on the deliberate seduction and Caroline's silly surrender. But that is how she goes!

Interest picked up again when Caroline became a suspect in the possible sabotage downing an F-22. Even more interesting was her reaction when she realized that Joe questioned her involvement.

I really liked the part where Joe opens up and we find out about the children that Wolf and Mary have had. Michael, their first born is now 18, and Joshua is 16, he appears to be a jet freak like Joe at his age, then there is Zane. He appears intense, silent and dangerous, like Wolf. And they finally got their daughter, Maris who is like her dad, who is sheer magic with horses. Ah, the magic of family. Joe is proud of them and loves them intensely.

Now back to the good part. Caroline, through some realistic deduction finally gets an idea of who is responsible for the skrewups and decides to tackle the party on her own. Another stupid move on the part of a woman. Joe ends up following her and walks into an ambush which ends up leaving them high and dry in the desert.

Breed's emotions are so intense by now that he decides to marry Caroline. There is nothing like shared danger and experiences.
Wolf and Mary get their first grandson [not even a 50/50 bet according to Mary] John Mackenzie. I wonder how long we will have to wait for his story.

DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED except for the lack of moral judgement.
Just hope L. Howard remembers there are more Mackenzies out there.
