Julianna Morris has had over twenty books published and been a Romantic Times Magazine Top Pick. Her Harlequin SuperRomance novel, Jake's Greatest Risk, was a Romantic Times 2014 nominee for a Reviewer's Choice Best Book award. Julianna's books have been praised for their emotional content, humorous touches, and strong characters.
This was a good mystjoyeery as well as romance book. It kept me guessing for quite a while. I also end the interaction of the two main characters. The supporting characters were well written too. I will be looking for books from this author to read in the future.
