Secondly, Isaac's 'love' for Jenna is more like obsession. Again, she barely knows him and is more in love with the idea of being loved than anything particular to Isaac. She falls for Isaac's worship of her, and believes they are meant to be together. She has never been touched in kindness by a man, let alone had a kiss or fallen in love. Jenna has lived an extremely sheltered life. There is virtually no mention of any other facet of Jenna, just her amazing healing ability. Despite others she heals having very similar reactions, Isaac decides he is in love with Jenna, and she has no choice but to love him back. Apparently Jenna doesn't just heal Isaac's body, but his soul too. Jenna is a healer, and when Isaac is shot, she heals him. This book is so below Maya Banks' normal standards. Because with just one touch, Isaac knows he wants Jenna to be his-forever. As he tries to bring Jenna to safety, she refuses to tell him what danger haunts her or how she healed him, but Isaac vows to do whatever it takes to gain her trust…and her heart. But when they are caught in a firestorm of bullets and Isaac is hit, he's sure the end is near, until Jenna touches him and closes his wounds. When a terrified young woman tries to steal the SUV of Devereaux Security's toughest recruit, Isaac's anger quickly turns into a strange sort of protectiveness for the beautiful, bruised stranger. In truth, she is merely biding her time, waiting for the perfect moment to escape. Years held captive and forced to do the cult's bidding have turned Jenna into a meek, timid woman…or so they think. Memories she clings to when the cult leaders discover her extraordinary ability to heal-and punish her. Raised in a strict religious cult since she was a young girl, Jenna has no connection to the outside world beyond vague flashes of memory that seem to be from another life. #1 USA Today and New York Times bestselling author Maya Banks continues her suspenseful and sizzling Slow Burn series with the fifth book featuring the men and women of Devereaux Security Services.
