Dinah (Dinah-Go) was a retired super heroine! However her old team didn't let her stay that way for long. And not just anyone returned for her. Myles (Man of Wonder) - old lover - returns for her with a very heated reunion.
Dinah-Go steps back into her roll fairly quickly, which I'd imagine is the way it works if you have the talents that these characters have. The bad guys -- or should I say gals -- are known right off the bat. Which I liked because it helped build up the anticipation of the black moment of the story.
This story flows well. Its packed with action - super hero action - and heat. Man, Ms. Beck wrote some vividly steamy scenes. This isn't my first Stephanie Beck book and I know it won't be my last. Her intimate scenes are very visual in her description, which I like.
If you're looking for something a little different, I recommend this one. You will devour it in no time and walk away feeling like you're ready to take on the world. I can't wait to read the next one in the series.
About The Book
Reuniting to save the world.
Dinah just wanted to save the world. That didn’t pan out, so she turned to social work, only to find herself miserable. When she’s given the option of returning to the Justice Fraternity and her life as Dinah-Go, super fast superhero, she hesitates because going back means working side by side with her former lover Myles Steele, aka Man of Wonder.
To save
their city from gargoyles, Man of Wonder needs Dinah-Go back in fighting shape.
But Myles wants more than just his fighting partner at his side, he wants the
lover and friend he lost two years earlier. Getting her will take more than
even his super strength.
Excerpt
The spring
scent of cherry blossoms wafted into the car, coloring the air to memories of
the past. They’d made love under the cherry trees a few times. Not nearly often
enough, but on a stray occasion they’d made the time.
There was
so much Myles should share with her, update her on, but breathing her in took
over too much brain space to focus. He’d missed her.
The day two
passenger trains collided at Silver City Junction, stealing the lives of dozens
and injuring many more, Myles lost his best friend. Not to death, but to doubt,
which also acted much like death in superheroes.
His second
chance had come and he wouldn’t waste it. He turned down the gated road toward
the Justice Fraternity lair.
“Wow, the
place looks great. This area always looks amazing in the spring. I can’t wait
to see Esmerelde and Sparrow. I’m sure I’ll get along fine with the others as
well. I’ll pay my dues and be back where I belong.”
The
determination and excitement in her voice were what his weary heart needed to
hear. When he’d fought beside Dinah-Go, he’d had extra incentive to do his
best, to be the best. He wanted that feeling back. For the most part, mankind
did deserve saving, but like Dinah, he’d been running into the scum of the
earth lately, and it made putting on his tights a chore.
Dinah
reached over the center console of the car and pushed the discrete button near
the steering wheel. She turned to him and grinned. “You always did have the
best toys.”
Instead of
the garage door going up, the driveway began tilting down into an underground
location. He barely slowed as he headed down, taking the curves deep into the
earth as he had a thousand times before. Dinah’s breathing increased, the
excitement in the situation a little like the way she approached climax. She’d
once told him speed and danger made her giddy.
He’d bet
she hadn’t felt the way she did at the moment in much too long.
The dark
cavern had all the stereotypes of a secret lair—dim lighting, lots of
mechanical additions, booby traps. Myles swerved left at the end of the drive,
avoiding trick spikes. Dinah clapped her hands. “Yay, you still have them.”
“Some
things you don’t get rid of.”
She turned
to him, the joy and happiness in her expression everything he wanted to see. He
put the car in park and turned off the engine. Dinah looked ready to bound out
and explore, but instead she stayed in the car and looked at him.
“What?” he
asked.
She
shrugged. “I’m glad to be home. Really glad.”
She leaned
across the center console and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, drawing
him closer for a kiss. Her tongue dove immediately into his mouth, taking over
the kiss with playful strength and power. She dragged her fingers through his
hair, and though the space was cramped, Myles leaned back to pull her closer.
Her soft
breasts pressed against his chest, igniting the lust that had simmered between
them the entire ride. He ran his hand down her back, following her curves to
her ass. She had the strongest legs and butt of any woman he’d ever met, but the
fleshy softness remained. He squeezed her butt, and she giggled into his mouth.
A tapping
on the window made both of them freeze. Dinah opened her eyes and looked at
him, pupils wide, red already glowing on her cheeks. Myles looked over his
shoulder and groaned when Crypto Man’s twisted grin came into view.
“Damn it,”
Myles said and settled Dinah in her seat. “Sometimes sidekicks are way
overrated.”
