Trace Elements would not be on my renewal list.

imageKate Donovan’s Trace Elements is a book that I wanted to like, I did. In fact, I put off writing about it, so I could ponder it a bit more. But I have to say even though I was really excited about the premise – an actress who portrays a take-no-prisoners FBI agent being consulted on a case by a real FBI hunk – I was just disappointed in the story.

Fortunately for all of us who hadn’t yet met her heroes, the five brothers Kinncaid, we can now read their exploits in this complete collection. And let me tell you these are HOT alpha heroes!Clark definitely knows how to meld several genres together – romance, suspense, and mystery – in order to create a spectacular read. Each of the books – Deadly Shadows, Deadly Ties, Deadly Obseesion, Deadly Games, and Deadly Secrets – could be read as a stand-alone novel, but who would want …
