Title:
Forced Disappearance
Author:
Dana Marton
Review: Glenn Danning, successful business
owner and brainiac, is kidnapped in
Venezuela while on "vacation". His family is concerned and calls for
the help of the US government.
Miranda
Soto is given her first assignment at Civilian Personal Recovery Unit to bring
home the body of Glenn Danning after he had been reported missing for four
months. What Miranda didn't tell her
boss was - that this would be personal because Glenn Danning was her first love
while she was at MIT. Glenn and Miranda
were to brainacs that love to do scientific experiments when it came to the
human body or in other words they discovered sex for the first time with each
other. 10 years has passed since the last time they saw each other and sparks
fly as they struggle to escape Venezuela.
Dana
Marton created a well crafted story that moved along giving the reader enough
information to keep them reading wanting to see what happens. The book is written from both Miranda and
Glenn's point of views so you are in both characters heads though out the book
and to my surprise I wasn't lost while reading the book.
I'm not
sure the author did this on purpose but it was pretty obvious who was the
villain in the story and I was pretty sure the reason as well. I have to admit sometimes I did feel like we
were turning our wheels for a chapter but then again the author put away action
and focused solely on character build up.
The end
felt a little rushed as if the author needed to keep the book under a certain
word count.

Synopsis: A gripping, fast-paced novel of romantic
suspense from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Dana Marton.
When wealthy American businessman Glenn Danning goes
missing in Venezuela, investigator Miranda Soto volunteers to track him down.
It’s her first assignment for the Civilian Personnel Recovery Unit, but this
mission is about more than salvaging the remnants of her shattered military
career. Glenn was Miranda’s best friend and first lover, and she’ll do anything
to save him from danger…especially since she just lost everything that mattered
to her.
Glenn barely survived being kidnapped and tortured
as a suspected spy, but the shock of seeing Miranda again gives him a new lease
on life. Their still-simmering attraction grows hotter as the couple races
through the treacherous jungle. Determined to reach safe ground, they must stay
alive long enough to stop the terrifying enemy who still hunts Glenn. And even
if they survive, Miranda’s dark past could jeopardize their future together…
