review 1: ***Received from Entangled Publishing for an honest review***It isn't often I read a story where the heroine one-night-stands the hero; that idea alone is often interesting enough to explore in a story. That the one-night stand occurred ten years prior is what intrigued me the most about Melissa and Daniel. Ten years is a long time to be apart, to change, to move on.In Melissa's case, it isn't necessarily moving on but coming home to a man she loved and ran away from once. Recovering from malaria, she comes home to find that Daniel has not only changed but appears to have moved on as well. The Daniel she knew has disappeared, leaving behind a cold, hard, and cynical man who doesn't want her but seems to need her.Once upon a time, Daniel loved Melissa enough to let her go, ... moreknowing her need for a little bit of freedom was important to her. Seeing her again ten years later, he knows he hasn't stopped loving her, but he's changed more than she realizes. He won't risk placing her in harm's way so he does what he feels is best: he pushes her away.Or tries to.Melissa's tenacity is a thing of beauty in this story. She doesn't stop, doesn't give up. She uses her head and follows her heart, putting the pieces together until she has some semblance of an answer to what's wrong with Daniel. In the face of his one true love's stubbornness, Daniel's resolve to keep her at arm's length weakens. This time around, it isn't about the sex between them but the emotional connection they share.Daniel's strength in the midst mounting strife is amazing to read about. The control he exudes over his emotions and supernatural powers shows he's not just a protector with the potential to lead, but he's also a man on a mission to right the wrong that forced him into the position he's in now. Being a werewolf might have its advantages but he doesn't care to lose another loved one to the crazed maniac others call Alpha just because he is one.An interesting take on rekindled love, the animosity and depravity within a pack, and how one man's stand against the evil that's demanded his submission leads to a happy ever after that's been a long time coming and so very well deserved.
review 2: I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.Operation: Saving Daniel is the story of three sisters and a friend trying to save their brother from marrying "The Evil One" that they all hate. What his sisters and Melissa don`t understand is their brother doesn`t need saving. He has a "plan" and has it all under control. NOT! Daniel is an extremely intelligent man of science. So until the day he was BITTEN BY A WEREWOLF and transformed a month later, he did not believe they existed. Now he is spending his time running a big fancy company with a big, fancy lady (wolf) on his arm and tagging along everywhere. Melissa (Lissa) is a woman of deep passions. She works with those who are less fortunate and has been overseas since the day after she seduced Daniel for his twentieth birthday present. A big red bow and a little black housecoat. Daniel was a goner. But so was she and it took her ten years to face herself and come back only to find Daniel completely changed (and she had no idea about the BIG CHANGE EVERY MONTH) with a fancy suit, fancy nails and shoes woman attached to his arm with "super glue", But Melissa has learned to be tenacious and knows that sometimes you have to work hard and strategize to get what you want. And she has finally decided to admit she wants Daniel.I was 13% into this book when I realized I was grinning. BIG HUGE GRIN as I am reading and chuckling. So I was sold - one more author that goes on the auto-buy pile cause I loved it. she made me laugh and made me want to reach through the book and smack so-and-so and I loved that the person needing the smacking kept changing! I love it when everyone does something stupid one after the other and you end up in adventureland for ever!Totally and completely funny and sweet and kick-butt sassy and just plain good. Must find more books by Nina. MUST! less
