Length: 5 hrs and 38 mins

Publisher's summary

His mission: Night Wing. The revolutionary test plane with a top-secret weapons system was Colonel Joe "Breed" Mackenzie's #1 priority. And weapons expert Caroline Evans was his #1 distraction. True, the stubborn blonde was giving him the cold shoulder, but Joe hadn't become the best of the best by giving up.

Then he discovered someone on the inside was sabotaging Night Wing, and with her late hours and specialized expertise, Caroline seemed the obvious choice. Now Joe had to choose between allegiance to his country and love for his prime suspect.

Enjoyed it

I read the book years ago and loved it, so wanted to hear the audio. The narrator had a great voice but seemed to rush through the story a little faster than normal. Romance novels have changed a lot since this story was written and so have my tastes. Still, I enjoyed listening to it. Great sexual tension.

Dated by still a great listen.

Would you consider the audio edition of Mackenzie's Mission to be better than the print version?

No, the narrator's intonation and inflections were off at times and he could have done a much more masculine hero's voice. Considering how often it was mention how deep and rumbling his voice was. A bit of a disappointment in that department.

What does Dennis Boutsikaris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He didn't improve the book.

Any additional comments?

Loins were mentioned way too many times but that is to be expected with the publish date. Linda Howard is still a great story teller.

Another very hot romance

This sexy romance had a super hot alpha pilot with a strong feisty scientist. It had a unique romance plot and intrigue involving espionage on a military base. What more could you ask for? Don’t miss out.

love it

I loved it so much. Didn't want to go to bed until I finished it .

McKenzie's Mission

Author and narrator are both excellent; have read all Ms. Howard's McKenzie's books and enjoy them for what they are; this is first on audio purchased, but will surely have more; looking for entertainment and received it

Good Book

The story continues from Mackenzie's Mountain. Joe is all grown up now and has graduated from the academy. You get a chance to see how he developed and get a glance at the rest of the Mackenzie clan. I enjoyed the story thought it was well written and engaging. This book gives us some missing information we didn't get in Mackenzie's Mountain such as, what happened to Joe while Wolf was in jail, and while Joe was in foster care. It shows how and why there was a deep bond between Joe and Wolf and gives an insight as to how Joe became so determined. This is a really good book we get to visit with Zane as well and find out the latest with him.

The best part of the book is the relationship between Joe and Carolyn, how they met and married.

You can tell this is one of Linda Howard earlier books but it is still a solid book and one of my favorites. This books holds up to any book she has written recently it shows passion and depth. You can't go wrong with a Linda Howard book It is totally worth a credit.

Wow

Linda Howard does it again. Both Caroline & Joe are characters anyone would like to meet. Great storyline & character development. Another favorite to add to my listen again list.

the author has a pattern

combine a strong, control freak male + a petite, virgin yet spirited female + a bad guy targeting said girl = a Linda Howard book

Another tall dark an handsome Mackenzie

I hope Ms Howard will continue the saga of the Mackenzie families. I can’t wait to start the next audiobook.

Joe and Caroline

The narrator was very good. Brought the characters to life and the story stayed true to the book. I appreciate the subtle humor being read into the story rather than just have the story being read.
