After having read Cherry Adair's Kiss and Tell, I was eager to read another one of her T-FLAC books. I admit the synopsis gave me pause, but I thought, nah, I'm sure it will be a good book. Always trust your very first impression! This wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, it was worse!
Hide and Seek was completely far fetched, ridiculous and full of over the top shenanigans all crammed into one book. Our heroine Delanie was the type of heroine that makes you want to scream! Her determination to save her sister was overdone and her devotion to her family was eye rolling. She's the only one who can save the day and so she must hang around the dangerous piranha infested, anaconda laden estate of a psychopath drug dealer hellbent on world domination who plans to release a dangerous bio-weapon. Does any of this deter our fearless heroine? No. She doesn't care, because she's only here to save her sister. Never mind the fact she doesn't know where to look or if her sister is still on the estate, never mind the fact that if the world dies, her precious sister dies too, never mind the fact her sister is a big girl who made her bed, never mind the fact she's in way over her head. Nope, she's not budging. Besides, it's not so scary. The guards on the estate know she's the pretend sex toy of the super scary psychopath so they leave her alone to wander about the estate poking into all the nooks and crannies. Also, she's under disguise as an easy tart complete with pink flamingo earrings so no one will put two and two together and think she's up to something nefarious. Until Dr. Kyle Wright shows up and is stunned to see her. Apparently these two had a wild and crazy sex fest four years ago and neither one has forgotten it. Kyle has been working undercover since he left Delanie and when he sees the innocent blonde calmly sitting subsequent to one of the most dangerous men in the world, he's adamant she leave immediately. Not without my sister, she says!
Dr. Kyle Wright has been working undercover for so long that he has nearly forgotten who he is. Delanie represents all the goodness that he is fighting for so he's understandably frantic to protect her without arousing the suspicions of anyone. Luckily for Delanie, Kyle is a super spy, super doctor, all around expert in all types of weaponry and transportation plus he's a hunk with a perfect physique and perfect hair. With his amazing CV her safety should be assured but of course our intrepid heroine knows better and blithely blazes her own trail. When he tells her to stay put, she wanders, when he tells her to meet him somewhere, she pops up at a different location, when he tells her to hide, she of course bumps into the bad guys and ruins four years of undercover work.
He loves this girl?! I would have shot her and buried her out back. Or fed her useless corpse to the piranhas.
There was just entirely too much going on in this book. I could have forgiven a few of Delanie's TSTL moments. A few of them. But she has so many that this book descends into a farcical mess. Kyle is also too much. His patience and understanding knows no bounds until the last part of the book. When Delanie and Kyle find her sister I was finally okay with her worry and protectiveness. Her sister was in pretty bad shape and of course I would choose to be with her, but Kyle suddenly draws a line in the sand and it's either now or never. Her sister or him. Huh? What happened to that endless understanding? This is the woman who busted up a four year long undercover sting operation and now your getting pissy because she wants to leave you a day early and meet up with you later on?
Grrrrr.
Don't bother with this book. You'll just hurt yourself. >:(

Another T-Flac adventure, this book is about "Kiss and Tell" Marnie's brother Kyle Wright and Delanie Eastman. They had met and had a very short love affair 3 nights 4 years prior to this encounter.
She is posing as a girlfriend to a cartel druglord/terriost trying to find her missing sister. Who had made a frantic phone call to her a few weeks before. And this is where the trail and clues leads her to. While sun bathing by the pool half nude she hears a voice from the past saying that he would know those breast anywhere Ms Eastman...
I Loved this Book. Lots of adventure, suspense, lots of action. The sparks between these two lovers are HOT!!!!...

The adventure and excitement of this book definitely matched that of books 1 and 2. I liked the hero and the love scenes just as much, too. Unfortunately, this book has a heroine that nearly ruined the story for me. She was alright in the beginning, but by the end her attitude was a big annoyance. No matter how much the hero did to help her, no matter how many times he saved her neck, she refused to show him the slightest respect or gratitude. "I don't need anyone" was repeated far too often. Worse, she knowingly did things that not only put his undercover case in jeopardy, she also knew she was risking his life and possibly thousands of others world wide. I couldn't just overlook that. The heroine brought this 5- star- worthy story down to a 4- star.
Kyle Wright is the most brilliant, and the youngest, of the 4 Wright brothers. After graduating high school early, he attended medical school as a teen. When his vast intelligence attracted the attention of well- known terrorist Ramon Montero, T-FLAC approached Kyle with an offer of a job in undercover work. Montero wanted him to create viral weapons. T-FLAC hired him to accept the terrorist's offer undercover. For 4 years, Kyle has carefully laid out a case against Montero. Just days from wrapping the case and leading a T-FLAC raid on Montero's land, Kyle found an unwelcome surprise in Montero's home.
Delanie Eastman recognized Kyle right away. 4 years ago, they had a weekend long fling. She never heard from him again. Now he has shown up at Montero's mansion. Shocked, Delanie can only assume that Kyle is a terrorist like Montero. Whomever he is, Delanie will not allow Kyle to get in her way of rescuing her sister from Montero's evil hands. She will stay and pretend to be Montero's guest until she can find Lauren and get her safely home.
4 years of hard work are at stake. Kyle can't allow this mission to go up in smoke. Too many lives are depending upon Montero's demise. Hard as he tries, Kyle can't get rid of Delanie before the raid on Montero's property is unleashed. When Montero gives Delanie to Kyle as a "gift", Kyle uses it as his chance to keep Delanie under watch. Eventually, Kyle has no choice but to break his cover for Delanie so that she will trust him. He'll do all he can to keep her safe from Montero, and from her own stubbornness. Delanie's very first concern is finding her sister. Whatever the cost she will not give up on saving Lauren.
Kyle has never stopped thinking of that special weekend years ago. Now that he has found Delanie again, he looks forward to having time with her after Montero is stopped. When he openly admits to Delanie that he loves her, she turns him away. Delanie believes love is for fools. In the end, Kyle worries that he may have to give her up in hopes that she will realize what she has lost.
The story kept me turning pages, "Delanie" kept me irritated. All in all, "Hide and Seek" is an exciting addition to the T-FLAC series.
There are a couple of things in the series that make me think "Oh, brother...". For one, the heroines are usually everyday women with jobs such as Kindergarten teacher, computer programmer, shop clerk, etc..., but when evil men are shooting at them they suddenly become thrill- seekers. They are ecstatic about the possibility of being killed. They have "never felt so alive" as when they are in the middle of a full- scale terrorist war. After Delanie and Kyle run through a sea of bullets, her comment is "That was awesome!" Huh??? I know it is supposed to make the women seem brave, but to me it just makes them seem brainless.
The other "Oh, brother" is the names Adair tends to choose for the women. In a word, "sappy". "Marnie", "Tally", "Delanie", etc... Oof!
Those things vented, the series is addicting. Adair can write an action scene worthy of "Mission Impossible", and a love scene worthy of Rhett Butler's passionate kisses mixed with modern daring descriptiveness.

Cherry Adair writes great books. Strong characters, strong story lines and great sex scenes!
Rated by buyers -
A sexy, fast read filled with action packed drama and well developed characters. This is a perfect read for a plane ride or commuting. It's hard to put down but easy to pick up where pulled yourself away.
Delanie takes care of everyone except herself and the one time she took a walk on the wild with mysterious Kyle Wright, thinking it was just a fling, is burned into her memory long after he left her. Years later, her sister, whom lives on the wild side and constantly needs rescuing, disappears and Delanie, the family rock, finds herself facing the one man she wishes she could forget as she poses as a bimbo at the side of Ramon Montero, the world's most notorious drug and weapons dealer and her sister's last boyfriend. Hidden deep in the jungles of South America, Kyle has his own agenda and Delanie stands between him and his mission. It's hot in South America but this book sizzles.
