what REVIEWERS are saying...
Wolf, Nitro, and Hotwire are hot and smart, and sure know what to do with the erotic passion Monroe gives them. - Michelle Buonfiglio, WNBC.com -
Romance: B(u)y the Book
Monroe writes with a flourish the type of lovemaking and desire that women can truly appreciate. 4 Stars - Romantic Times
And Able brings Lucy Monroe’s Mercenary trilogy, that began with Ready and Willing, to a fabulously satisfying conclusion. These two characters fit together like two puzzle pieces; every action in the book reflects the connection between them. 5 Stars - Cynthia,
A Romance Review
Brett 'Hotwire' Adams is one hot alpha hero who's found his match--and mate--in Claire. It was pure pleasure watching these two totally different people come to the realization of being in love. 4.5 Stars - Deborah Hosey,
The Romance Reader's Connection
I can’t imagine a better conclusion to Lucy Monroe’s Mercenaries trilogy than AND ABLE. The clever, suspenseful plot and intriguing characters are blended together in perfect balance, with plenty of steam to spice things up. - Alane
Coppinger, Blue Ribbon Reviews
Lucy Monroe weaves a fast action-filled tale fraught with danger and filled with mind blowing romance in
AND ABLE. Hotwire, a hunk of a hero is perfect for strong willed Claire and all the characters you’ve met
in READY and WILLING are there. You must not miss the explosive conclusion to the addictive
Mercenary Trilogy, Ready, Willing & Able. 4.5 Stars - Donna Zapf, SingleTitles.com
And Able is an awesomely great ending for Ms Monroes series and will have you waiting on pins and needles to see how Hotwire and Claire work through their differences at the same time as needing to cool off after the very erotic love scenes. And Able is definitely my fav of the series and I cannot wait to see what Lucy Monroe comes up with next. - Barb Hicks,
The Best Reviews
An absorbing tale of passion and love, don’t miss AND ABLE. - Jennifer Bishop, Romance Reviews Today
I enjoyed revisiting this group of ex-mercenaries who love with a vengeance and will do anything to protect the ones they love. Pickup a copy of
And Able and travel the road of love and intrigue, see if Brett and Claire are
Able to find true love, if they live long enough. - Helen Slifer,

other AUTHORS and BOOKSELLERS are saying...
Dear Lucy, I just finished the new story, And ABLE. What a great combination of action and adventure
mixed up with your special blend of romance. It is wonderful to see that all of your heroes have such
worthy mates. Not a wimp among them. I will be sorry not to learn how they all grow old together and
raise families etc. These folks are so real to your readers and myself. I loved spending time with them
all. Wishing you the best with this new release. ~ Sharon at Munchkinbooks
Dear Lucy - Just a quick note to say I loved ...And Able. Haven't had a chance to read the Harlequin Presents that came out this week, but it's next. Good work! - Lee Ann Daugherty, Romance Specialist, Waldenbooks

READERS are saying...
"Thanks for your books. I am not a reader (in fact I hate-hated to read), but recently started reading Jennifer Weiner's books. When I finished those, my girlfriend gave me Ready, Willing, and Able. I have read all 3 of them in 6 day. I am now searching for more of your books to read. I am also looking forward to your new ones that are coming out. Thank you for books, they have really got me into reading for the first time!" ~ Tanya
"I am currently reading the Mercenary trilogy and I just love this series. Wolf, Nitro & Hotwire are fantastic heroes and you matched them with some great heroines. Thanks for such a great series." ~ Danny
"Hi Lucy. I just finished reading Ready, Willing, And Able and I thought they were hot! I've only been reading romance for about a year now, and I must say, this is only the second time I've dropped a book while reading the love scenes. I've only read this series and The Real Deal, but I think you are great! I'll be sure to get my hands on your other books when I see them." ~ Carmina
"I just had to write you are my favorite author and have been for about a year and a half I had stopped reading for about 7 years while I was raising my son and working to keep a roof over our head but when I started reading again I found one of your books and then had to go on line to get all of the older books I
hadn't read and I loved everyone of them. Well I just finished your series Ready Willing and Able now I have to tell you I did it backwards, I was in Boarders a couple of weeks ago and decided to go ahead and buy it even though I hadn't read the others well I couldn't put it down and then I had to go on line again to get the other two books so I read them backwards because Ready was the last one to make it to my house but let me tell you it didn't make any difference to me they were the best I have read so far. So I just want to say please don't stop writing because I for one will never stop reading your books." ~ Denise G

Oh, man, I feel so sad because the series is over. If you haven't picked up Lucy's books, then you're missing out. Great job, Lucy!" ~ Patti
"I finished And Able over the weekend and hated to see it end. I actually went back and started re-reading Ready!" ~ Laurie
"I felt the exact same way! It was hard to see the books end - I loved them so much. I like how Lucy makes her characters more complex as she goes along. I didn't think it was possible to like Hotwire any more than I already did, but she managed to eek out even more emotion. That's our Lucy :)" ~ Stacy
