Product Description
They met in a steamy Florida bar—then spent a night of mind-bending passion. Two secret agents who each possess unique telekinetic gifts—and whose combined sexual powers leave neither of them unscathed. For ex-Navy SEAL Wyatt Kennedy, assigned by the Agency for Covert Rare Operatives to the most treacherous mission of his career, the woman in black leather and lace has just become more than a one-night stand. Because Faith Black is the sole barrier to the success of his mission—and not even Wyatt’s legendary seduction skills can penetrate her deep cover.
Faith’s psychic gifts make her one of the world’s most dangerous women—but she hides a secret pain she shares with no one. Until Wyatt. And Faith has an agenda of her own: using her unique powers to save someone close to her—a move that pits her against a man she thought she’d never see again. For as a deadly hurricane is unleashed across the eastern seaboard, desire reignites between Faith and Wyatt, exposing secrets that thrust them both into harm’s way. With the hurricane sweeping closer—and their erotic hunger for each other growing—these two wary hearts must come together to heal, to trust . . . and to harness the power of a storm that could consume everything in its path.

 Wow what a terrific series November 1, 2008
Daniela Brueggemann (Germany)
When ACRO special agent Wyatt Kennedy meets Faith Black and has a one-night-stand with her, he never would have believed that she will play such an important role in his mission to destroy ITOR's weather machine. Faith is also after the machine, because someone holds her sister in exchange for the machine. Will they find a way to get their feelings for each other and their missions under one hat?
SEDUCED BY THE STORM is the third installment of the very successful ACRO series. The author team Sydney Croft deliver another keeper with this book and it can be read as a stand-alone. Although I bet you will hurry to the next bookstore to get the other books, because the books are addictive and the ACRO fever grabs you very fast.. The book so captivated me that I wasn't able to put the book down. The writing style of the author team is just perfect, because normally you see which scene is written by which author, but this isn't so with Larissa Ione and Stephanie Tyler. I can promise you that you will immensely enjoy this book, but I warn you to keep a box of Kleenex near you, because you are going to need them. SEDUCED BY THE STORM is one of the rare books that moved me to tears.
Just a small warning that there are some homoerotic scenes in the book, that might not be something for everyone's taste.
Neither Wyatt nor Faith are flawless and perfect, but that is what makes them so lovable and what makes them realistic. Both of them have to come a long way when it comes to trusting others, especially each other, but their progress is perfectly interwoven into the storyline. Faith is a real kickass heroine, who gives Wyatt a run for his money and doesn't make his life easier, more like the opposite.
You really don't want to miss this masterpiece of paranormal erotic romance, so hurry and get your copy today.

Book Fanatic (Toronto, Canada)
Ex-Navy SEAL and ACRO agent Wyatt Kennedy is sent on a highly dangerous mission to retrieve and destroy a weapon of mass destruction held by the enemy. Wyatt is an extraordinarily powerful telekinetic and possesses seductive powers which makes him irresistible to any woman. Wyatt is an extremely conflicted and I felt a lonely character who like the other `specialized' operatives has experienced ridicule and betrayal at the hands of his family. The thing that really made me love Wyatt was his sense of honour and duty to those in need.
Faith Black, a powerful psychic is sent on a mission by her covert agency (also one of the good guys) to steal the same weapon that Wyatt is after. Faith is cunning, ruthless and has been trained as a covert spy from a young age. There is a personal issue at stake for Faith on this mission that adds a spectacular plot twist and climax to the story.
The sensuality that erupts between Wyatt and Faith can only be described as nuclear grade, and explodes off the pages from their first meeting. Their romance is complicated not only because they are both on missions with orders from separate agencies, but also because they are extremely driven people accustomed to being in total control.
Remy and Haley make appearances in this story and I can tell you the scenes conceived surrounding this couple are off the charts exciting. I could almost hear the thunder and feel the wind whirling around me. (lol)
Seduced by the Storm ties a couple of subplots surrounding fascinating supporting characters created in the first two novels. Sydney Croft has been quite clever in opening new developments amongst the ACRO `family' that cannot help but encourage those of us who are devoted readers to be curious as to what the next `mission' will be.
 The story has gotten better... September 22, 2008

Beware this series contains homosexual sex scenes. I don't care one way or the other, but I know several people that would be greatly offended by that. Ok, also don't expect the depth of the Demonica Series. This is described as Erotica, basically I have found that means a loose plot and filler to link together really good sex scenes. I enjoyed it for what it was, but I would have liked to see the Agencies defined and thought out a bit better. There again I have NEVER found that in Erotica. Just don't expect too much, and it will be an enjoyable read.
 Why oh why did they kill him? September 7, 2008

This is a good book. Sexy, fast paced and entertaining. But I was so upset that a major character died I stopped reading it for a little bit. I know I can't be the only one. I was shocked and it happened so fast. Why oh why ladies did you do this? Aside from the death of a fav chacter (to me) I liked the book and both the leads. Otherwise it is a good read. Fast paced and very hot. If reading hot sex is not for you, pass on this series.
The best in one yet! August 31, 2008

***Review courtesy of Wild On Books review site ***
In the third installment of the exciting ACRO (Agency for Covert Rare Operatives) series by Sydney Croft we meet Wyatt Kennedy, one of ACRO's special agents. Wyatt possesses the gifted powers of telekinesis and a sexual mojo so strong that it will drive any person around him into some highly sexual behavior. The only bad or good thing about his sexual gift is anyone who spends the night with him will never remember the event or him the next time they meet. Wyatt has been sent into deep cover by ACRO on a mission where he is surrounded by ACRO's enemy, Itor a rival agency that uses their power for bad. Itor currently possess the "weather machine" which could steer or strengthen any existing storms which in the wrong hands could be deadly. For this mission Wyatt is so deep under cover that most of the people at ACRO thinks he is dead. His mission is to destroy the weather machine before Itor uses it to create storms so deadly that causalities could be high.
Faith Black is also interested in the weather machine but for reasons other then destroying it. Someone has her twin sister and is demanding she retrieves the weather machine from Itor in exchange for her sister. Faith is also a special agent who has special biokinetic capabilities. Faith hasn't seen her sister in years. They were separated after her sister was taken away at a young age.
Wyatt and Faith meet up one night after Faith ducks into the bar to avoid being followed by an enemy. After successfully escaping the enemy with Wyatt's help Faith and Wyatt spend a night of hot, steamy and dangerous sex. Thinking they'll never meet again Wyatt is surprise to find Faith on the oil rig where he is deep undercover the next day. He is even more shocked to realize that Faith remembers everything from the night before.
Where to begin? I loved, loved, and loved every moment and every page of this book. I inhaled all 368 pages of SEDUCED BY THE STORM in one sitting. This is one of the top 5 on my paranormal series list. The dynamic duo of Larissa Ione and Stephanie Tyler has done it again in this third installment of the ACRO series. I think this is the best one yet of the series. Everything fell into place nicely with the world building and character growth. It was great to see some previous characters making appearances. This book also ties up storylines that have been progressing through the previous two books which the fans will appreciate.
Fans "be warned" this one will make you cry. So have tissues handy. The sexual chemistry between Wyatt and Faith was off the charts. I mean from the first meeting until the end these two will keep you hot and bothered and so will the many other storylines. Wyatt and Faith were flawed which I loved. They weren't perfect which made them perfect for each other. The fact that they have reasons not to trust one another definitely drove this storyline. It was done nicely without any unnecessary complications.
Faith is another kick ass heroine who holds her own against Wyatt. Croft does not do wilting flower heroines which I appreciate nor are the heroines too stupid to live in my opinion. Wyatt is another strong alpha male who just radiates strength, sexiness, and smarts. We also meet some new characters that have caught my eye which I'm hoping we'll eventually get stories for them sometime in the future.
Two strong and highly trained special agents on a mission to retrieve the same deadly machine lead this reader on an intensely, exciting, sexy, fast paced, and action pack adventure. Will they stop Itor, will Faith save her sister, and can they trust each other? You'll have to run out and pick up this book to find out. Pick up a box fan too because Sydney Croft writes some freaking great sex! I highly recommend this series. You don't necessarily have to read them in order but things would definitely make more sense if you do get the previous two books which are RIDING THE STORM and UNLEASHING THE STORM. There is an ACRO story in HOT NIGHTS, DARK DESIRES Anthology but the storyline doesn't connect with the rest of the books.
