About the author

Karen Clow is passionate about her writing especially her erotic crime books; as they cover topics which we all like to believe don’t happen, when in fact they do on a daily basis. Sex crimes along with women who live in fear of their partners are real. All her work comes from the heart which is reflected in her ability to write in different genres. Her books leave you believing in the topic and wanting to read more. She is fiercely protective over her family and has always endeavoured to have time for them and her writing, so it’s no surprise that she often writes during the night hours. With a genuine love of people and animals, she strives to help everyone in the hope of making their lives better, yet unbeknown to many of them she is also a published poet .

Omg

This was an amazing read. I couldn't put it down. There's so much going on. It's a must-read if you haven't. I don't want to say too much about it as I will give it away. Plenty of action, love, sadness, and happiness all in one.

what a read!

As always with this authors work you know you’re in for a thrill a minute. There were times I could have stuck a knife in Jimmy, he could be so loving one sec and then the next a complete plonker! Maria is going to need the patience of a saint with him. As for Mickey well he’s just a star who realised in time what he had here’s hoping he can behave lol.
Honestly there’s so much happening in this book and boy is it value for money. I’d suggest if you authors like Mandasue Heller, Martina Cole and Jessie Keane shake your tail over to Amazon and treat yourself to one or two of Karen Clows then phone off, chocolate, blanket, cuppa and you’re all set for a great afternoon/evening. 10/10 excellent

I thought the book was going to be more like a Martin's Coke read with the gangs in London. It seemed to focus a lot on Jimmy and Maria's sex life/relationship. Actually found it a bit boring to be fair.

Love this book right from the start. I have since read the whole series. Love that the characters have a connection. you won't be disappointed.
Jimmy is a complex character. He wins Maria from a sadist Nick in a poker game. What happens next keeps you hooked. Great writing.

5* read

First book I've read from this author and can't wait to read the rest if the series. I'm normally a really slow reader but got through this in no time. Definitely recommend

[Joanne Dickinson · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's has some fast pace action

Love the beginning storyline , the gangster story, monica who works for the police but helps them.

Don't like domestic abuse. I properly won't read any more as I skip some pages as I feel when Jimmy gets nasty again. Marie will truly be stuck.

Could’ve been a really good book if it wasn’t so poorly written.

Jimmy game

A real good read,though it was wrote as in a third-party telling it. Very little punctuation. A bit too much graphic violence.

[Christine Morrison · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed this book and the plots etc were good, the sexual banter from the men was fine , however I am not a pude but I felt the sexual content between Jimmy and Maria was on overload, not necessary. The book could have been 100 pages less and more enjoyable.

[Julia Jones · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jimmys game

This was a really slow paced, too detailed. I got quite bored with it . Jimmy came across as a sex mad control freak. Hope the next in series is better

[julie coddington · Rating 1 out of 5]

poor

Surprised I stuck with it poorly written and unbelievable coppers marrying known criminals and nobody bats an eye very poor

[Kay Etherington · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved reading this book, murders and suspense however I found it rather long winded in places and could hear my inner voice saying get on with it

[gillian thompson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great. Read

5 🌟 without hesitation now for the next one

[Jayne Saunders · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brilliant

From the start to finish I was on the edge of my seat. Not knowing what Jimmy was going to say or do was nail biting! Can't wait for the next book .
