This is really more of a novella, but Josh Lanyon manages to put in lots of action and emotion into this book, which is not only a beautiful stand-alone romance...but also sets the stage for the remaining books of the series. I love her books...all her books. Josh Lanyon is a master at creating a sense of place, and painting characters who feel so alive and make us care for them. A crashed plane...a dead hijacker...and a backpack full of money with three gun carrying people looking for it and instead finding our two guys who only wanted to go camping and explore their growing friendship and feelings that are much more than mere friendship. For being a short book, it deliciously sets the atmosphere for Special Agents Will Brandt and Taylor MacAllister to maybe have “more” with one another. ( )

Uhm... not the Josh Lanyon I was looking for. It was so different.
The story involved more sex and feelings and relationshippy stuff than any other JL book I read. The focus was not on the crime-solving. And even that part was OTT, which in not entirely unusual I admit.
And I didn't like the writing either. 3rd person dual pov and I had a hard time telling them apart.
This must be one of the author's early works. And if so, she got way better over time.
It was interesting and exciting enough that I kept going back to it. And since I already have the whole bundle I will continue.... after I finish my faves from the author.

WTH did I just read? Seriously.
I didn't think a day would come I will write a negative review for a Lanyon book, but here it is.

First of all, I expected this to be a mystery in a real Lanyon fashion and what I got was an action movie (?), which played a significant part in my disappointment. Had this been an enjoyable read I would have rated it highly despite my expectations. But since it was not, my unfulfilled expectations only added to the frustration. The only mercy is that it was short and that the writing flowed.



The two sex scenes in the book were frustrating. First one because there was such a lack of communication between the MCs - one was melted into an emotional puddle while the other was behaving like a stranger and I felt almost sick reading it. The second was was a quick make out session in an abandoned mine shaft - a musty, smelly, almost-coming-down-on-their-heads mine shaft - after they have been shot at, beaten, chased through the wilderness, and they literally had mud all over their faces. And they were licking each other. All I could think about was the taste of that dirty skin and whether the mine shaft will start crumbling around them. So yeah, the opposite of sexy.

The plot was okay, just not my thing. I rarely like action packed books, and this was no exception. It was hard to suspend my disbelief at times, like when they made a bonfire by setting fire to pocket lint using a piece of glass and then proceeded to make a bonfire out of dry boards and timber. I'm not sure where they found dry timber though, since it was spring in the mountains and it was mentioned it rained a day or two before. But who needs logic, right?

Anyways, this was a very disappointing read for me, and I don't think I'll continue reading the series. ( )

This freebie novella was worth about what I paid for it. I won't be reading the series. ( )

Please *stop* combining "Dangerous Ground" by Josh Lanyon with "Hostage" by Laura Baumbach, Sarah Black, and Josh Lanyon. The two works are NOT the same. "Dangerous Ground" is an individual work, and "Hostage" is the anthology.
