A year and a half ago Julia Torrison’s
life literally exploded all around her. A CIA agent, Julia
is adept at tracking down terrorists with her lover and
partner, Conrad Flynn. When a mission goes from bad to
worse and Conrad is killed, Julia is pulled and reassigned
as an analyst stateside. With a new lover and name, Julia
protects her heart and her memories of Conrad never knowing
that he did not die. Finally making his appearance in
Julia’s new life, Conrad abducts her with the intent of
saving her. It seems there is a traitor in her midst and
Conrad somehow must convince her that it is not him.
Operation Sheba by Misty Evans was a good
story although at times I had a hard time understanding all
of the various nuances of the plot. I was able to go back,
reread, and understand the basic plot of the story. My
heart wanted to like Julia but I found her abrasive and too
rough. I was not able to get a feel of her romantic
inclinations towards Conrad and as a reader, I have to have
believe that the heroine and the hero are genuinely in
love. If I can’t, then the book to me is just words. I
have to admit that Operation Sheba was well
written and suspenseful. It is fast paced with lots of
action and I am convinced I am not the norm in my inability
to connect with this book. |
