This is a book that I couldn’t put down because you just can’t wait to read what happens on the next page. It is full of adventure, suspense, and action with a hit of romance. I can see this turning out to be a movie of t.v series. It’s just that GREAT!!
This book really takes you into the past. I was right there in Miami with Lainey. I was scared for her, excited and happy for her in the end. I could really see in my mind what Miami looked like in the 60’s.
I read this book in two sittings because it was hard to put down. You wanted to find out what happens next. Dealing with the mob, con men/women, police and a sweet old lady really made this book interesting.
The author did a great job getting you into the heads of the main characters. I actually connected with several of the characters. I even cried tears of joy at the end.
