REVIEW: A Dangerous Tryst by Danielle Bourdon

In A Dangerous Tryst by Danielle Bourdon, Madalina and her parents are kidnapped by mercenaries attempting to discover the whereabouts of the dragon figurines. Her boyfriend, Cole, and his brothers engage in a chase around the world to get them back and to retrieve the dragons before anything happens to Madalina and her family.

I enjoyed this book. It was fast paced and action-packed. I was kept guessing as to who the mercenaries were working for and what their end game was. I liked that it was never clear cut as to what was going on with them until Cole finally put the pieces together. I also enjoyed the fact that even though Madalina was in a dangerous situation, she never freaked out. She kept calm and even tried to find ways to get herself and her parents out of their predicament.

If you haven’t read the previous two books, which I hadn’t, you’re definitely going to feel like you’re missing something so I can’t recommend it as a stand alone. After his death, Madalina’s grandfather left her a series of clues as to where he hid the dragons. But not having read the books, I didn’t understand the importance of them. Everyone from the mercenaries to the Chinese and Vietnamese governments were after Madalina to get them, only I was confused as to why. Their importance was probably explained in the previous books, since it wasn’t in this one. Also, there are several references to Madalina’s first kidnapping which occurred in the previous book, but details weren’t explained and it made me curious as to what happened.

If you’re looking for a fast paced story with plenty of action and a bit of mystery, A Dangerous Tryst may be a read for you.
