Charlotte Court’s father Philip is dying a slow death from cancer. Not slow enough for Robert Haine, though.  Haine wants the eight billion dollars that taking over Court Industries will bring him after Philip’s death. Charlotte will have to die, too, in order for him to get his hands on it, though. Haine is working on that little problem as well.

 Charlotte is running for her life. Haine has framed her for her father’s murder. She has nowhere to go, she’s running out money, and she’s wounded.

Lieutenant Matthew Sanders is lucky to be alive. After being badly wounded on a mission in Afghanistan, he struggled back from the brink of death. Once healed enough to leave the VA hospital, he heads to Mexico to stay with his friend where he begins the hard and long road to recovery. It’s there that Matt meets his guardian angel. They have never spoken. He doesn’t even know her name yet, but for months, his angel has cheered him on. Her silent encouragement works, bringing Matt back to life. Then it’s his turn to save her.

 Matt knows Charlotte is hiding something from him. If he can convince her to trust him and tell him what’s happened before trouble finds her, he might be able to save her life again.

 Pursuit is perfect! It’s page after page of suspense and excitement.  Matt is magnificent and Charlotte is beautiful -- inside and out. I was riveted to the villain’s every move and I fell in love with the picturesque beauty of Mexico. Elizabeth Jennings is one of my favorite authors. I know I’m going to love her books even before I read the first page. Pursuit is everything I hoped it would be and more. It’s deeply sensual, romantic, suspenseful, full of action, and a little dark, too.  It’s perfect!
