The Honor Series by Radclyffe
Action, suspense, and a romance for all times

One writer I recently discovered, that I'm sure many of you are already familiar with, is Radclyffe. A surgeon by day who lives in Pennsylvania, Radclyffe is one of the more prolific lesbian romance writers around. Just a quick search on Amazon will turn up a ton of great romance titles by this talented woman, and further searching on the Web will unveil a plethora of fanfiction Radclyffe has written and posted, especially on the PDA Fiction Web site.

My first exposure to her work was the Honor series featuring a Secret Service agent and her unwilling protectee. I would not hesitate to say this is one writer who creates believably great characters that are just as strong as mainstream publishings' Kay Scarpetta or Kinsey Milhone (Patricia Cornwell and Sue Grafton's characters, respectively)! Starting with her "Above All, Honor" story that introduces you to Secret Service Agent Cameron Roberts, and her charge to protect, Blair Powell, the uncooperative and elusive President's daughter, you are instantly immersed in a believable world of politics, psychos, and the lengths some people will go to have their freedom. Cameron's job is further complicated by her growing attraction to the First Daughter, as well as the stalker who is determined that Blair will be his.

Next up is Honor Bound, which immediately hits the ground running. The tenuous new relationship they have started is once again jeopardized, not only by the stalker, but by Cameron, who feels the pressure to protect Blair. But at what cost? During one intense scene in this title, I actually found myself on pins-and-needles, just dying to find out what happened! In Love and Honor, we find Blair and Cam suddenly the focus of a media frenzy regarding their relationship. But who tipped off the media and why? Will her career come first or will Cameron lose everything to keep Blair? And last, but not least, we have Honor Guards. Here's a little mini-review of Honor Guards. Full review coming soon.

Honor Guards Mini-Review
I just finished Honor Guards, the fourth book in the "Honor Series" by Radclyffe, and it is nothing short of fantastic! I was skeptical at first, wondering how she could pull off mixing past events of 9/11 with Cameron Roberts and Blair Powell, two characters we have grown to know and love, but the inimitable Radclyffe has done it again! An amazing mix of fact and fiction, with plenty of danger in between! A full review will be forthcoming shortly.

Trust me, if you're looking for a great romance, read anything by Radclyffe.
