When Lara Kirk was abducted months ago, Miles Davenport vowed he'd bring her home. But the mission failed. Miles has become totally obsessed; he can practically hear Lara pleading for him to save her. Finding her after all this time will be next to impossible...Lara Kirk lives in a shadowy world where reality and fantasy are one. Her captors have poisoned her body with concoctions that enhance psychic abilities--and they seem to be working. To escape, Lara has formed a deep attachment with a man whose virile, sensual presence in her mind is her only comfort. She's not even sure if he's real--until the six-foot-five-inch powerhouse bursts in to rescue her...Once freed, Lara has no choice but to trust Miles with her life as they run from enemies too twisted to imagine. But they're also fighting a dangerous attraction that could kill--or save--them both. Either way, it's going to be a hell of a ride...

My Review  4 STARS

This is the only book in the series that i have read and i felt that it could be read as a stand alone book, however it might have been nice to get the previous information about Miles from the previous books on my side.

Miles has psi abilities that manifested after he was mind fucked in another battle to find Lara that was unsuccessful.  After time in a coma and time in the wilderness by himself he is still struggling with his new abilities, but now he is hearing a voice in his head that claims to be Lara.  His has also been having sex dreams with her most nights.

Lara has been kidnapped and imprisoned for months and it is only when she finds the citidel does she find some quiet time out when tripping, she does not know that she has entered Miles's mind.

After Miles completes an almost solo rescue of Lara things get more interesting and Lara and Miles fall further for each other, and learn new things about themselves along the way.

Both Lara and Mile are strong characters and both cope well with the changes in their lives and Lara shows great compassion for those around her.  Miles also shows that he will do anything required to save those that he loves.

I did enjoy this story but i did find that it was a long read and took me a while in order to get through it and it did not keep me as captivated as some other books.
