Tracy values the flexible lifestyle that writing affords her. She has carried her laptop across three continents and swears that having to write in places such as Australia and Southern France has not hindered her ability to focus on her work. She currently lives in New Jersey and is hard at work on her next novel.
Rating 1.5 stars This book was a drag, I have been reading it since yesterday but it hasn't been holding my attention. I didn't feel the romance, the mystery or chemistry. I found the heroine foolish for writing a fake obit & then the hero an art investigator thinks she's involved which I found even funnier. The book was so not for me.
This was my first Harlequin Romance novel. It was a mystery-love story with some sex scenes thrown in to make it mildly titillating. It was pretty entertaining and I had fun reading it. If you are religious and don't like to read things with sex in it, this is not for you. However, if you are looking for book candy, this is for you.
