Air Force Colonel Joe "Breed" MacKenzie is busy with his military career and acting as a test pilot for the Night Wing Project, a new classified aircraft. When beautiful Physicist Caroline Evans comes to the base to work on the new Night Wing prototypes, Joe is immediately attracted to her. At first Caroline seems a bit flustered when Joe is around, but he finally succeeds in getting her to agree to a date. Everything is running smoothly in their relationship until it is discovered that one of the planes has been sabotaged and all evidence points to Caroline as the culprit. Joe must choose between his country or the woman he is falling in love with.

This is the follow up to Linda Howard's classic "MacKenzie's Mountain". Joe is the son of Wolf MacKenzie whose dream was to be a fighter pilot. Now he is all grown up with a successful military career. Caroline is a no-nonsense scientist who never had time for a relationship.

This was an entertaining story with lots of interesting information about the military project that is the background to the story. Joe was a typical 1990's hero, a little to alpha for me, but Caroline stood up to him nicely. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
