PUBLISHING DATE: March 2002

Review:

Savannah Van Hopf's Uncle Alex has been kidknapped. Desperate, Savannah goes to San Diego hoping to persuade Ken "Wildcard" Karmody to help her with the ransom exchange in Jakarta, Indonesia. She met had Ken a couple of times while they both attending Yale University so how does she explain the "coincidence" that has him changing her flat tire near his home unless she tells the truth. Savannah and Ken are immediately attracted to one another, which makes her cowardly and unable to tell him the truth right away. They even make love that night.

When she finally tells him why she is really there, he is angry that he was sucker punched by a beautiful woman again. Still, he cannot allow her to go by herself. Soon the duo is struggling to keep alive, unable to differentiate between terrorist attacks and friendly fire as other American operatives propelled by Savannah's grandmother make a rescue attempt.

OUT OF CONTROL is an exciting novel that first builds up the cast of characters so that the reader knows who's who before going into an incredible warp speed. The multipable story lines keeps the reader from the main plot and an easy reading flow. I loved Savannah/Kenny, Molly/Jones and Rose/Hank but it was just too much for one book.

EXCELLENT
