Linda Howard Mackenzie's Mission The second book in the Mackenzie series, 1992Prologue. He was a legend even before he graduated from the Academy, at least among his own classmates and the underclassmen. As first in his graduating class he had his pick of assignments, and to no one's surprise, he chose fighter jets. The politically savvy all knew that the fastest way to promotion in the Air Force was as an aviator, and fighter wings, with their inherent glamour, had always been the most visible.

Mackenzie's Mission book. Another one of Linda Howard's clueless thirty year old virgins seemingly transported from an old fashioned bodice-ripper set in the Middle Ages and thrust into a contemporary world. At least, this time, h was just as fetishized as H, as the author constantly compares her pale, golden-haired character to a Valkirye, a Nordic warrior goddess worthy of H's "half breed" warrior persona.

Reviews about Mackenzie's Mission (7):

This was originally written in 1992 and published by Harlequin/Silhouette. Therefore, it is not spoiling things for you to say that it's a romance with plenty of hard, masculine muscularity in the alpha male, and a fair amount of trembling, newly awakened passion in the virginal, yet feisty and intelligent, heroine. Joe Mackenzie was last seen as a teenager in Mackenzie's Mountain. Now he's in his mid-30s, rapidly rising toward becoming a General in the Air Force, and in charge of a top secret project: the development of a fighter jet with laser capabilities. Caroline is a brainiac who got through college in her teens at the cost of a social life appropriate for her age. Thus, she's a virgin in her late 20s. The two meet and click. As this is a romantic suspense, along comes an obstacle. Something is going wrong with the project. Caroline is on the team, trying to find out what's happening. In between the intense passion - a steamy weekend in Vegas tops the buildup - there is the suspicion that Caroline might be a saboteur. You know there will be a happy ending. Ms. Howard's Mackenzie series is extremely popular, though the style is now somewhat dated. Still, it's enjoyable. I've read it since the early paperback release and most recently obtained it in the Wheeler large print hardcover, published around 2005. I recommend this version because of the good quality paper. If you're a re-reader and a fan of the author, it could be worth the investment for you.

I was excited to get Joe’s book after meeting him in Mackenzie’s Mountain. Although Caroline and Joe were both good characters, I didn’t feel the connection between them as strongly as I wanted while reading. The chemistry was there, but I wanted a little more of the falling in love scenes I guess.

Also, the security measures in place on the Night Wing would have been so much more vigorous than what was mentioned. It was just too hard to imagine the whole sabotage plot being possible. I realize this is a fictional story, but even fiction has to sometimes be believable.

Overall, it was a good book and I’ll continue the series.

Greetings. I love Linda Howard, but I don't always enjoy everything she writes. After MacKenzie's Mountain, I expected another romance where someone would get wooed, but instead I got free sex and no heart. I was finally glad to learn what happened to Joe that shut him down as a kid when Wolf got him back, although I knew it would have to be pretty bad to shut down such a strong character, Howard wrote it very well and with taste. She positioned it well in the novel and supporting events that continued the tone and mood of the scene. She is an exceptional writer with lots of twists and turns in the book, but I just did not feel like their story was a tale of falling in love. They were more like, hey let's do it, ok, and that was it. The surrounding tale was intriguing and I greatly enjoyed the mystery, but I really would've liked more sexual tension between the characters, more courting and heavy petting, and if the novel lasted more than a weekend, cool. The novel felt a little like their love life, wham bam thank you ma'am. I would have liked more time.

Another great story about the MacKenzie family. Joe is the oldest of the Mackenzie brothers, and he is fulfilling his life time dream of being a pilot in the army. He has worked his way up to Colonel and is in charge of testing new aircraft. He meets Caroline, who is on the team helping to do the ground work involved in testing the aircraft. The plane is being sabotaged and Joe thinks Caroline is part of that team. Joe needs to solve the sabotage of the plane while dealing with his growing feelings for Caroline. Having read the first book in the series, MacKenzie's Mountain, it was good to catch up with an older Joe's life.

An EXCELLENT sequel to Mackenzie's Mountain. The story focuses on Colonel Joe Mackenzie , pilot in the USAF. With the help of his stepmother Mary, Joe has achieved his dreams of being a pilot in the US Air Force. He's assigned to help a group of scientists developing new technology for planes.Assigned to the project is weapons engineer Caroline Evans who catches Joe's eye! Things get complicated when a saboteur tries to derail the project & Caroline becomes the main suspect. Read the book to find out what happens next.

I just had to read Joe's story after I read Wolf's. I wasn't disappointed. Howard did a better job showing Wolf's control than Joe's. It's a big part of his character and they made a big deal about it but I only mildly felt it. I love the man Joe became. I'm glad she didn't make him someone with too many faults. Caroline could have held out a little longer. If you have read a Howard book before you will not be disappointed.

A thrilling spy adventure with a dark and dangerous jet jockey verses a real genius on computers and military programs, see who comes out the winner
I'd read it before. Mystery and romance as the second generation McKenzie falls hard. Good mix of grit and love.
