Night Whispers
The Prey: Anna Dunning is walking a fine line between security and mind-numbing terror. The phone calls are becoming more frequent -- a stranger whispering horrible, obscene promises. She knows he is watching her...stalking her. And he's getting closer. Close enough to touch her, to hurt her, to kill her.
The Protector: Mark Righter is her shield. A tough ex-homicide cop who left the force with a shattered reputation and a dangerous attitude, he's been hired by Anna's brother to protect her. As proud, stubborn and impossible as the woman is, Righter needs the job.
The Hunter watches and waits--for the chance to snatch Anna from the arms of this interloper...and finally make her his own.

Molly Swanton and Carla Peltonen were born in in Aspen, Colorado, U.S.A. on January 22 and September 12. In the late 60s, both newly returned from bumming around the world, they met in Aspen in the Red Onion, an Old West saloon. They were both new brides, wet behind the ears. It was several years later that they dreamed up Lynn Erickson, the pseudonym a combination of their husbands' names. They had read every romance put out in the early 70s and started saying, "We can do better than this." Well, they couldn't, but what the heck? The wrote two fat novels before we chanced onto an agent and made a sale. His first words to them: "The manuscript is flawed, but..."
They published their first novel as Lynn Erickson in 1980. Their early books were historical romances, full of blood and guts and murder, then they turned to contemporary women's suspense. "We've set almost all of our books in Colorado, especially in Aspen, a town where the truth is usually stranger than fiction. Aspen is a character in our books, not just a setting. We love to drop inside jokes about the quirks and fancies of our hometown. The scenery truly is glorious, the mountains magnificent, the skiing and hiking and fishing and horseback riding legendary. We cover the arts, too - the world-renowned music festival, the shops full of museum-quality paintings and sculptures. Southwestern art is big, of course: paintings and pottery and Navajo rugs."

I've read this book multiple times and I always enjoy it

This is probably a 2.5 star book...but it was so predictable that I could not bump it up to a 3. There were a lot of people in this story, the antagonist was actually four people and so it was hard to keep track. Anna was beautiful and stubborn, Mark was the great protector of women, wronged by his boss. Mark sleeps at Anna's house to protect her and things move on from there...

This was a good, fast book. Enjoyable but not too taxing.

Another “clean the shelves” book and I am glad to dump this one. This is far from my reading tastes today.
