"This first B.L.I.S.S. book is purely entertainment!!"
If this book is any indication of how the B.L.I.S.S. line
will play out, count me in! I couldn't do a thing all day
except read this fabulously entertaining book. I know I can
always count on Nina Bangs for an exceptional read! This
book just proves my point! Agent 36DD, aka Camryn O'Brien, is a new recruit to
B.L.I.S.S. She has a unique ability in being able to take
care of herself and she is a jam up mechanic. Her first
assignment is to protect extremely rich and eccentric Owen
Sitall from being murdered by Zed of L.O.V.E.R. She has to
travel to Owen's private island that is set up like the
Monopoly game with her entourage of three former B.L.I.S.S.
agents, Flo, Sara and Rachel and a robotic cat named
F.I.D.O. They'll be traveling in a pink Cadillac, a remnant
of the Mary Kay days of Y, the head honcho of B.L.I.S.S.
Course, the Caddy has been souped up by T, a pimply faced
geeky genius! As they get to the island and get ready to pass GO,
they notice the hunky guy in front of them on a Harley. He
just looks like he's up to no good but what Camryn and the
ladies don't know is he's Owen's only son, Jace, who hasn't
seen his father since he was six years old. So just what
is he doing here? That remains to be seen. I thoroughly enjoyed this book simply for the
entertainment factor. The characters were just a pure
stroke of genius and F.I.D.O. did nothing but add to the
hilarity and enjoyment of this whole experience. I giggled,
chuckled and plain just laughed out loud through the whole
book. I eagerly look forward to more books in the
B.L.I.S.S. line!

SummaryThe world's richest man, Owen Sitall, was a flop at a
certain game. As a child he'd only beaten the dolts his
father paid to lose; as an adult he built an enormous board
so he could win on his own. And he'd left nothing to
chance. His island was a playground for the beautiful and
rich, stocked with community chests. But he and his
bodyguard Peter Bilt didn't know that L.O.V.E.R. -- the
League of Violent Economic Revolutionaries--had come to
play in his hotels...and their plans to bankrupt him had
already passed Go.
Camryn, novice agent #36-DD of B.L.I.S.S -- the
international organization that fought crime anywhere from
St. Croix to St. James Place--found her assignment clear:
Protect the fanatical Sitall from financial ruin. But she'd
have a big shoe to fill. And though she got to ride in the
little race car (a pink Cadillac), she had a feeling that
being a spy didn't just mean free parking. Before this was
over, she'd be rolling the dice with her heart.
Look for all the B.L.I.S.S. Titles:
