Editorial Review / Publisher's Information:
Product Description
In Linda Howard’s gifted hands, second chances, unexpected romance, and unrelenting action combine into a riveting new novel of suspense. In Death Angel, bad girls can wake up and trust their hearts, bad guys can fight for what’s right . . . and dying just might be the only way to change one’s life.
A striking beauty with a taste for diamonds and dangerous men, Drea Rousseau is more than content to be arm candy for Rafael Salinas, a notorious crime lord who deals with betrayal through quick and treacherous means: a bullet to the back of the head, a blade across the neck, an incendiary device beneath a car. Eager to break with Rafael, Drea makes a fateful decision and a desperate move, stealing a mountain of cash from the malicious killer. After all, an escape needs to be financed.
Though Drea runs, Salinas knows she can’t hide–and he dispatches a cold-blooded assassin in hot pursuit, resulting in a tragic turn of events. Or does it?
Left for dead, Drea miraculously returns to the realm of the living a changed woman. She’s no longer shallow and selfish, no longer steals or cheats or sells herself short. Both humbled and thrilled with this unexpected second chance, Drea embraces her new life. But in order to feel safe and sound–and stop nervously looking over her shoulder–she will need to take down those who marked her for death.
Joining forces with the FBI, supplying vital inside information that only she can provide, Drea finds herself working with the most dangerous man she’s ever known. Yet the closer they get to danger, the more intense their feelings for each other become, and the more Drea realizes that the cost of her new life may be her life itself–as well as her heart.

• Another Great One
29 December, 2009
I have read every one of Linda Howard's books. I realized after finishing Death Angel, that each really is very different. Yes, boy meets girl, girl and boy have chemistry, there's tension, conflict, yada yada. But each story is so different. I cried big tears on Cry No More. I have reread the Mackenzie sagas numerous times. My favorites, Wolf and Mary. There is not that much intrigue, like in Kiss me while I sleep or All the Queen's Men or Mr. Perfect. Death Angel is a quiet story. You aren't really surprised that Andrea turns out not to be a dumb blonde. But you are with her as she fights back and makes her moves. Simon, who wouldn't want a man who can make love for 4 hours and bring indescribable pleasure; is who he is. He is not cruel, just who he is. And through one act, cracks those shields that he placed around himself, and quietly as he does everything else, changes and becomes the man of Andie's dreams; her Mr. Perfect. Death Angel is a keeper.

• Death Angel
07 December, 2009
This was a good book, but not her best. I usually LOVE anything I read by her. I could not get with the assassin as a hero. His explaination of if he were hired to kill her (Drea, the heroine) was not good enough for me for her to get with him. I guess this book was a little to DARK for me. Drea did not make a good heroine either.

• A Surprising Work From Linda Howard
16 January, 2010
"Death Angel" is a very different story with characters that are hard to like; but who grab your interest immediately. I was reminded of her earlier novel "Kiss Me While I Sleep". Both stories grab and hold your interest with a plot not often seen in a romance novel. In "Death Angel" Ms. Howard has written a captivating story that you won't soon forget.
