Death Angel a romance novel by Linda Howard

Linda Howard, an excellent author, has another winner with Death Angel. This is not a cutesy love story but one with a lot of suspense. This is going to be a difficult one to write about so bear with me. It’s too good not to tell you about so I’ll just have to give it my best shot.




Drea Rousseau is content living with Rafael Salinas, a notorious crime lord, as his mistress and acts the part of dumb blond to keep the high living lifestyle that she has. Her life up to this point has little to no redeeming qualities. When Salinas betrays her to keep the service of an assassin, she sneaks away with his money to start a new life. When Salinas discovers the theft he sends the assassin after her. Drea, left for dead, starts a new and better life. Her conscience sends her to the FBI to tell them everything she knows to stop Salinas’s criminal activities and then she will no longer live in fear. During this time, she has to work with the most dangerous man she knows. Their love story is spread out over the course of the novel. They finally get the chance to trust each other and learn how to be better people simply because of the love that they share.

There are no hearts and flowers in this book but a simple connecting of souls. I really enjoyed this book, but then I think I’ve enjoyed everything by Linda Howard that I’ve read.

Until next time...
