When it comes to romantic suspense, action adventure, contemporary, and paranormal fiction and romance, Natalie Dunbar savors a front row seat behind the open book or the job manning the creative pen or keyboard. Writing fiction has been a lifetime adventure and treasured escape that resulted in her first book, Best of Friends, being published by Genesis Press in March 2000. Natalie soon followed that up with three more books for Genesis Press, a novella in an anthology for Bet Books, a novella in an anthology with Parker Publishing, and books for Silhouette Bombshell. Read her latest novella in the Kimani Arabesque anthology, Can I Get An Amen Again. In June 2007, her romantic suspense novel, A Serial Affair, will be available from Silhouette Romantic Suspense.
An incurable romantic, Natalie is married to her high school sweetheart and has two sons. A University of Michigan and University of Detroit Mercy graduate, she works fulltime in the Detroit area as an engineer.
This was a decent read, the pace of the romance between the hero and the heroine was reasonable. The hero and heroine were both unashamedly attracted to one another from the start, but maintained a professional relationship while working together.
Some of the off-putting instances in the book were scenes involving the heroine's ex-husband. His inclusion in the story took away too much attention from the hero and heroine. I care not to find out how the rest of his story will play out in a possible sequel.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
