Catalyst

De: Rachel Grant

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

When a food storage depot in famine-struck South Sudan is torched, American aid worker Brie Stewart flees, only to land in a market where she's the next item up for auction. Is the attack on the aid facility another assault upon the war-torn fledgling democracy, or has her family set her up as a pawn in their quest for oil rights?

Chief Warrant Officer Sebastian Ford crossed paths with Brie years ago when she was a shill for her family's company, pushing a pipeline that threatened his tribe's land. Determined to lead the rescue operation to save her, he won't let her abduction - or the attraction that flares between them - get in the way of settling their unfinished business.

The Green Beret's skills are put to the test in the flooded grasslands of South Sudan, where they must battle nature and dangerous factions who are after more than oil. Bastian and Brie put their hearts on the line as they find themselves embroiled in a conflict that extends beyond country and continent. Together they must douse the spark before it reaches the flashpoint and engulfs everything they hold dear.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The second novel in Grant's Flashpoint series offers intelligent romantic suspense that moves with the urgency of a thriller." (Kirkus Reviews)

My new favourite author

I love everything about Rachel Grants writing - its fast paced, interesting, well written and all the characters are developed in such a way that you really care about the outcome and want to know what’s next for them.
These books are amazing in their richness and layers, especially around humanitarian and social justice issues. I love the way that the patriarchal biases and sexism is called out by both the men and the women. This is done respectfully and as part of the story which just makes the books even more enjoyable to read because it is challenging stereotypes rather than justifying them.
The narrator was fantastic and the sex scenes were hot and enhanced the story.
Would highly recommend this book.

These books should be their own category!

Would you listen to Catalyst again? Why?

Like "Tinderbox", "Catalyst" is a real story of action and suspense with real sex. These books should be their own category. I am so tired of "Romance" books with thin story line, character development, cliche dialog and full of High School-like drama and fairy tale relationships that are written around careful sex. I want more books like these! I will definitely try her other books hoping they will also be good reads full of adult situations, conversations and sex.

Suspense, Sex and Love ia a third world war zone

enjoyed the story, enjoyed Brie, who she was, her determination to become who she is, the Green Beret, Chief Ford, and what he learns about himself and her as they move and live thru the real terrors going on here and now in the Third World War zone. Good Narrator!

Princess Prime

Fleeing armed men in South Sudan American aid worker Brie Stewart lands in a slave market, only to be rescued by the Green Berets. Including one hot and infuriating man she shouldn't want but does anyway.

Chief Warrant Officer Sebastian Ford has mixed emotions where Brie is concerned. Despite his feelings being coloured by her past and his heritage nothing will stop him from rescuing her from a fate worse than death.

On the run Bastian discovers that ''Princess Prime' the oil tycoons daughter has changed. The girl that he both despised and lusted over is now a beautiful strong and compassionate woman.

As Bastian and Brie find themselves embroiled in a conflict that extends beyond country and continent. They find more than their hearts are on the line. Failure is not an option!

Rachel has crafted an intriguing romantic political thriller that I really enjoyed listening to and thoroughly recommend to all readers.
