Murphy's Law

by Rebecca Sinclair

Murphy's Law reigns supreme. . . What else can explain how Murphy McKenna managed to get herself stuck in an unexpected, early-in-the-season Maine blizzard? In a very remote cabin. With dead phones. And impassable roads. Could there be a worse time for a desperate, badly wounded man to show up on her doorstep? Instinct demands Murphy not trust Garrett Thayer. After all, the man refuses to give her a straight answer about anything. Even her precious Himalayan cat, Moonshine, is suspicious. Who wouldn't be? Not only is Garrett hurt, he's also apparently been out wandering in the storm with nothing more than a duffel bag stuffed with money, antique jewelry (a bottle of antihistamines?) -- and a gun. Will Murphy's conscience allow her to turn her back on the handsome stranger who may be a thief, a bank robber, or worse . . .?

About the author

Reb published her first book in 1989. She is the bestselling author of CALIFORNIA CARESS, PERFECT STRANGERS, MONTANA WILDFIRE ... & a bunch of other historical romance novels.

She lives on the southeast coast of New England in a big house built in 1865—haunted, of course (this is New England, aren't they're ALL haunted?—and only a five minute walk from the ocean, with a husband she loves almost as much as he loves football, fishing & firearms.

Roaming the internet is only one of her obsessions.

Reviews

[Nae · Rating 2 out of 5]

Ok, not memorable... felt rushed, more like a novella

[Meli · Rating 3 out of 5]

Romance novels aren't my normal cup of tea...

But every now and then you want try something different. Having said that, I wished I hadn't diverted from my norm. The book was ok, but barely worth three stars, just like thousands of other romance books. If you like romance novels and only expect cookie cutter style writing with no expectations of something different, you'll like this book.
