He'd lost blood and comrades on the world's battlefi elds, but neither compared to losing his memory. Waking up in a secret military bunker, drugged, with vague images of a mission gone bad, Jonah had nowhere to turn. Until help came in the form of the one woman he'd always remember….
Psychologist Sophia Rhodes never got over the bad boy who'd stolen her good-girl heart a decade ago. But without military training, how could she possibly steal Jonah from a high-security facility? She had only one hope—that he'd never forgotten her, either. Sophia knew the breakout was the easy part. Somehow she had to help Jonah focus his hazy images—before a desperate man made sure he'd never remember.…
Ruth Glick (born 1942) is a best-selling author of healthy cookbooks and has also written dozens of romantic suspense romance novels under the pen name Rebecca York.
Ruth earned a B.A. in American Thought and Civilization from George Washington University and an M.A. in American Studies from the University of Maryland. Although she always wanted to become a writer, Glick was convinced that her lack of spelling skills meant that her goal was unattainable. As a stay-at-home mother, she took a community college course to help her choose a career. The course made it very clear that writing was her primary interest. Glick began writing articles for newspapers and magazines, but after several years decided to try writing fiction. Her first book, a kids' science fiction book, was finally purchased by Scholastic Inc..
Since then, Glick has become a highly successful author of over 50 romantic suspense and paranormal novels. Many of her novels are published under the Harlequin Intrigue line, and in June 2003, she became one of the first authors published under Berkley's new Sensation imprint. Before 1997, she often collaborated with Eileen Buckholtz and Kathryn Jenson.
Glick also is a highly regarded author of cookbooks focusing on healthy eating. She sometimes hires trained chefs to test the recipes that she creates, and makes sure that every recipe is tested at least three times before it appears in one of her cookbooks.
Glick is the head of the Columbia Writers Workshop. She and her husband, Norman Glick, live in Columbia, Maryland, where Ruth collects rocks, and enjoys cooking, walking, reading, gardening, travel, and Mozart operas. They have two grown children, Elissa and Ethan, and two grandsons (Jesse and Leo).
Jonah Baker, a bad boy turned soldier; a hero turned captive. Waking in a bunker with little to no memory, vague memories of a mission ran through his head. Memories altered by mindly drugs. Fighting to remember what really happened and if he truly was in Afghanistan or was it Thailand, he could not remember, until psychologist Sophia Rhodes came into the picture. Working with an agency to break Jonah free, he discovers that she is the woman he had loved so many years before. (Or was it just a false memory)? Good story plot. It drags a little in some places but overall it is an ok book to the end, until you figure out what the conspiracy was and who was behind it all.
Another good story to add to Rebecca Yorks "43 Light Street" series, I really enjoyed this book and I was pleasently surprised that it has my home state of West Virginia in major scenes as well as the Greenbrier Hotel which is in the town of White Sulphur Springs which is my hometown. It was a nice feeling sitting there reading about an adventure in places that I know so well!
I haven't read all of the Light Street series....maybe I need to rectify that situation.
A romantic suspense novel about a psycologist who is called in to "rescue" a former lover. He is being held in a secret military bunker after a mission went bad. His memory has been tampered with and she hopes he will remember her enough to left her help him.
The latest in the 43 Light Street series and a good read. No paranormal [unless you count the presence of a vampire and a few other oddities that work for Light Street/Randolph Security:] just fun stuff like rescuing the innocent, mind altering drugs and behavior control. Good book, I liked it.
