What a bad book....
I'd never read anything by this author but the blurb sounded good and I read an excerpt which also sounded good so I took the plunge...and drowned in the bad storyline.I'm not even going to go into plot or characters other reviewers have already outlined.The story lacked cohesion, the characters weren't likable, their actions made no sense and in general the whole thing was a pain to read.Pass this one over.

From J. Kaye's Book Blog
MISSING IN ACTION is the first of MIA series that takes paranormal to a whole new level as Tristan McKade and his partner Shamus Long, both genetically enhanced solders, created for the sole purpose of working for the Supernatural Control Squad.

Both were thought to be dead by their families. So when Tristan shows up and saves Sara, a woman he'd been in love with before the accident, from a vampire attack, he had a lot of explaining to do. Trouble is, he the SCS is a secret organization and he can't reveal enough to satisfy her.

The story is filled with plenty of action. In fact, I wondered about midway through if maybe there was too much crammed into such a short book. I felt the background information of Tristan's job, for example, wasn't deep enough and would have liked to know more. This would have been one of those books that could have been lengthened to make a full 330 some odd pages and kept the reader interest all the way until the end. If the story had been allowed to develop more, it would have been more believable.

Maybe more will be revealed in book two, SHAMEFUL, which is now in print.

It isn't what she thought her life was going to be since losing Tristan, but you must go on or be as good as dead. She is celebrating her future and her engagement, but notices a man watching in the back of the room, who is he and what does he want she wonders? He reminds her of her Tristan, but it couldn't be. So when he goes outside she decides to follow. But when she goes out to find him, he has just vanished into thin air.

Can the two of them work together to beat this killer and have the future that was stolen from them until now?
"Oh God" this story was Damn Great. But come on what did we expect, right? This author knows how to write a story with Intrigue and passion and story line, all of what you need for a 5 book. I loved the passion that was between these two. And the storyline, of her thinking she lost the love of his life, and raising their son by herself has happened to many times in real life, so to read a story with a happy ever after, for me as a reader is so "Great". To read a book like this that helps you escape from life is what is needed more in life that is for sure.

Editorial Review Product Description For many faculty the desire and need to go abroad is inherent in the nature of their discipline. For others the thought of going abroad for scholarly purposes is completely alien.

Goodwin and Nacht examine the type of faculty who go abroad and their reasons for doing so, the incentives and the disincentives for faculty travel abroad, the attitudes prevalent on US campuses toward such activities, the special obstacles and risks faced by faculty who commit themselves to an international experience and the effects of foreign experience among the faculty on the internationalisation of US campuses. In preparing the book, the authors conducted extensive interviews with faculty at thirty-seven institutions of higher education. ... Read more
