About the author

As a self-admitted helpless romantic, and a fan of reading mysteries and crime, I write mostly romantic suspense. Character development, describing scenery and building suspense are all part of drawing a reader right into a story. That's my goal, to have my readers be swept away...

This book was reviewed by two readers, Christine Stanley and Maggie Mayfield.

Maggie's review: This novel combines mystery, suspense and romance all in one story and definitely holds the reader's interest. The author is very good at describing things so you can easily get a mental picture of the scenery and surroundings. The reader becomes involved in wanting the two main characters to get together and leaves you saying, finally, it was worth the wait. Tom is adorable and does really turn out to be the knight in shining armor, just as the author describes him. This is not an extremely long book, but just long enough. At least you know if won't take weeks to find out what happens.

Christine's review: I enjoyed this book so much I read it in a very short time. It keeps your interest and is full of action from start to finish. I can't wait for the author to write another book!
