I am almost 100% positive that I swooned through most of this book. Literally. Amazingly, I am okay with this. - & let me just tell you why.

How would you like to have near superhuman powers? Right?! I thought it was pretty awesome too! - To be able to windwalk - put people to sleep at the drop of a hat - read minds - see the past - tell the future - have superhuman strength - be able to heal yourself - and so much more.. Most people would find this simply amazing! - Until you get the one idiot who feels that he needs to breed an Army of GTECH's to take over the entire population. - Go figure

-Insert the Renegades here -
Caleb - brother to the idiot who is attempting to take over the world, as formed the Renegades in hopes of stopping his idiot brother. The Renegades are virtually the "Good Guys".

On one hand you have Sapphire - also known as Lara - who has been brainwashed by Dr. Powell, convinced that the GTECH Renegades killed her entire family - then turned INTO a GTECH to help destroy the Renegades.

So here you have Sapphire - also known as Lara - who has been brainwashed by Dr. Powell (who is also attempting to take out the renegades) - convinced that the Renegades killed her family - then turn into a GTECH to help destroy all Renegade GTECH's. - Except they overlooked a couple of things. Lara's memory begins to come back - & she not only DOESN'T take out her mark - but eventually he turns into her ally.

& in comes Damion. GTECH extraordinaire. After joining the GTECH Army after his brother was killed, Damion is the soldier of all soldiers. His family is now his GTECH Brothers. So what does he do when he runs into this insanely sexy woman in a bikini who is clearly trying to kill him? - Under normal circumstances - windwalk and get away.. That is until he realizes she can windwalk to, meaning she is also a GTECH.

Throughout the process of this story we watch as Damion and Lara form this amazing bond that not only tugs at your heart strings, but has you rooting for Damion the entire way. GTECHs have this thing were they "LifeBond" - when you mate with you "soulmate" a symbol forms on the back of your neck - & you are bound to that person. They die, you die. So Lara fights this connection tooth and nail - which makes you want to pull out your hair, but at the same time - hope she changes her mind because you are totally team #Laura&Damion!

In the mist of all this, the Renegade team and Lara combine forces to take down Dr. Powell - who let me tell you, isn't that easy to find. - Watching the battles within battles in this story was a joy for me. Not only did you have Lara and Damion - you had the relationship between Damion and Chale (his best friend) really tested when something went wrong during a mission.

From the plot line - to the witty conversation - to the all around smartass banter between almost everyone in this book - to the down right evil plotting from more than one person, this book had almost everything I like reading in them! Not to mention some salty x-rated scenes! But what is a lifebond without some amazing lifebond forming sex?! right!

Favorite Quote

"Did they teach you bedside manner in assassin school?" Chale asked, eyeing Lara.
"I wasn't aware I had one," she said, her lips lifting.
"You aren't trying to kill me," Chale said. "That sounds like a pretty good bedside manner to me."
"Wait until she decides to kick you or bite you," Damion offered with a smile. "Then you will change your mind." ( )

The book THE DANGER THAT IS DAMION begins when Damion meets Lara poolside trying to assassinate the man he was protecting. Damion and Lara are instantly attracted to each other, but fight the craving to connect because of the fear the other may be the enemy. They learn to trust each other which brings alot of pleasure to both of them. Damion attempts to help Lara learn the truth of her past. This book is very sexy and I highly recommend it. It is the third book in a series, but can be read as a standalone due to the glossary the author added to the book. I found it to be very helpful to jump right into the book. This book was received for the purpose of an honest review.

This book is a good reminder for me as to why I like to read series in order. Jones did a fine job filling me in on the story and characters, but I would love to have started this series from the beginning. New elements were added to the overarching plot in this book, so it would have been nice to have known the established story better.

But this book reminded me a lot of Christine Feehan's Ghostwalker series, though this series uses alien DNA to create the supersoldiers and I don't think the character's powers are quite as diverse as Feehan's. I think because it reminded me so much of the Ghostwalker series, I relied more on the characters for enjoyment of this book. And I did end up getting invested in the coming together of Lara and Damion. Lara held the most appeal for me. She truly believes she is doing something good against those people who hurt her family. But she is being manipulated and ends up running through a gamut of emotions as she deals with her unreliable memory. I think Jones did a great job portraying these emotions.

I was also left curious about the main couples in the previous two books and so ended up purchasing the first book in the series.

Plot was fine, but it was the characters that kept me reading.

Our Review (from LITERAL ADDICTION's Associate Reviewer Mich M):

When a team of soldiers working in "Project Zodius" are injected with Alien DNA instead of their usual immunisations - GTECH soldiers are born. Faster healing and increased strength and speed are amongst the gifts they develop. One of these soldiers - Adam, has a thirst for power, he is quickly becoming obsessed in his mission to breed a new race of super soldiers. GTECH soldiers can only breed with their true mate, Adam uses this to set up Sex Camps where women are forced to sleep with his soldiers in the hope that one of them will be their mate. Adam has no qualms about using people for his own gain.

Fortunately Adam's brother, Caleb doesn't share his goals and he has formed a group of Renegade's who loosely work with the government in the hope that they can stop him.

Renegade Damion Browne doesn't know what to think when Lara Martin enters his life, she says things that don't make sense and treats him like an enemy. Can they put their faith in each other in order to survive what's coming?

I loved this installment in the Zodius series, it was a perfect mix of romance and suspense. I liked Damion and Lara together they are both stubborn and mistrusting yet they are drawn to each other despite knowing the other is kepping secrets. I loved Lara's sensitive side and her indecision, it was easy to relate to her and I found myself willing her to not give up, to fight for her memories and Damion. I was surprised I liked Damion as much, especially with how much I adore Sterling but he surprised me, going frm a guy who never deviates from the plan to someone who would go to the ends of the earth for someone else.

Lisa really surprised me with this book, just I get an idea of where we are going and what happens next she completely blows my expectatioons out the water. Every book is that little bit better than the one before and the world gets that bit more intriguing. I'm in awe of her world buillding skills, she just keeps adding layers and extra dimensions to the characters. I can't wait to see where she takes us next!

LITERAL ADDICTION's Associate Reviewer gives The Danger That is Damion a well deserved 5 Skulls. ( )
