Small Town Romance: Men in Blue to the Rescue

by Abigail Cortez, Abigail Cortez

Amy Williams is a dyed-in-the-wool romantic. From childhood, her father taught her to see the mystery and danger in every-day events. All her adult life, however —including her present sedate secretarial job at a small, educational non-profit— has always been...well, uneventful. Still, she won’t let that blind her to the every-day mysteries around her.

Michael Edwards is a facts-only local police beat cop who was raised on the poor side of town by a single mother. Mysteries need to be de-mystified and made safe. Danger needs to be disarmed, contained or neutralized. Its not just his job, its his whole upbringing.

So when mystery and danger finally threaten Amy’s boring existence, and perhaps her very life, a man like Officer Edwards is just the ticket. If only he wasn’t such a flat-footed, unimaginative jerk.

I have to start by saying that this isn't the most perfectly polished piece of writing you'll ever read. I noticed a few errors and there's quite a bit of 'info-dumping' at the start. BUT don't be put off by this. Personally, I still enjoyed it far more than many of the recent romances I've read- that were polished. It's amusing and thrilling at the same time and the characters are very engaging. I recommend this as a fun, undemanding read.

Good story! Proofreading needed to clean it up, but otherwise enjoyable. Author shows promise, hope it won't be too long before he publishes another story!

Trying to submit my review is another story. A review shouldn't have to be the size of the book I just read. Short, sweet, and to the point are all that's needed. Required number of words before you can submit is ridiculous!
