Sela Kahne's past is tragic and painful but ACRO, Agency for Covert Rare Operations, has become her home, regardless of the sneaky way she got here. ACRO has embraced Sela and made her one of their own. At first, the job of Seducer seemed to be the best place for her, but it was actually the worst. She was beaten practically to death by one of her marks, which left her broken in body and in mind. Sela now enjoys being part of the cryptozoology department of ACRO, where her job is to research and examine strange animals. When a video of the brutal slaying of a team of Navy SEALs draws the attention of ACRO, Sela is immediately sent to the Amazon to find out what exactly took place. However, the moment she finds the site of the brutal slayings, everything goes wrong.

Marlene West is finally in her element, though she misses being Dev's assistant; training as a Seducer is what she's made for. As a teenager, her vengeful sister put a curse on her that makes her fall in love with every man she sleeps with, only to have them despise her when the act is over. Marlene's training and the curse is what makes her valuable to Dev and ACRO, which is why she is being sent on her first mission with Sela Kahne to the Amazon jungle to assist in gaining information on the company ACRO suspects is involved with the creature loose in the jungle. Marlene is to seduce the leader to gain the knowledge needed to find their enemy Itor. As Sela and Marlene collect evidence, they are captured by a group of men, which causes nothing but trouble for both of them.

Sydney Croft once again takes us on a journey where special abilities and danger are just part of the passion- filled game. Always a must-read.

Book Summary

EXTREME HEAT. EXTREME HUNGER. A JUNGLE EDEN ABLAZE WITH TEMPTATION..

Shockwaves shoot through the Agency for Covert Rare Operatives (ACRO) when horrific video surfaces from the Brazilian rain forest. A team of Navy SEALs has been nearly wiped out by something sinister and superhuman. Now ACRO agents Sela Kahne and Marlena West head to the world’s most unforgiving jungle in pursuit of a mythical monstrosity with a taste for human blood. And the only path that will take them to the creature runs through two men, each hiding his own dark secret.

Sela is an expert on cryptozoology with a sideline skill that could prove invaluable: when she makes love to a man, she engulfs his innermost thoughts. Teamed with Marlena, Sela makes contact with the lone SEAL survivor, Chance McCormack. Meanwhile Logan Mills, the man who rescued Chance, leads his private company on a hunt that has nothing to do with saving lives. Soon, Sela will put her supernatural charms to work on Logan, determined to extract information about the creature they are seeking. But in this sweat-drenched realm of danger and deception, Logan is more than just a passive target. He has the power to lead a highly-trained seducer into a jungle without any rules, without any limits—and no end to the heat.
