The author needs to find another job besides writing books
Incest, prostitution, alley cats, too many plots, totally unbelievable. Actually the rating should have been a negative five. Can't believe I actually bought this book
Way to go from city to ocean, it’s a good read with criminal invading part of the book. Romance provided and a mystery in the mix. I am sure you will love it, get the book and read it yourself.
