Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Average
Review: This book was a long time coming for me. It seems as though NTR had not published anything of this type for a while. Although I thought this book had its moments - it really takes an interesting look at both the "police procedurial" and the "victim" side of the laws, including a very interesting turn of events for Lilly's estranged husband- the author insists on MUDDLING this by overdoing it with the interaction between Lilly(the main character) and Shana (her daughter). While I realize that this is one of the main plotlines, the author makes Shana sound like a whiny 5 year old (when indeed she is in college) who cannot function without daddy or mommy.

She made the main character (Lilly) sound like a dotting mother, absolutely controlled by every whiny emotion Shana has.

Frankly, this whole relationship did not work at all and seriously removed a lot of the pleasure of this book for me.

I wish the author would just stick to the legal thriller aspect which, in my opinion, is the only redeeming feature in this book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ho hum
Review: This is the first book I read by Ms. Rosenberg and I'm not sure if it will be my last since I have another one on my shelf to read. I found the book slow and boring. Ms. Rosenburg writes like this was a sequal, but yet it isn't. I've been corrected it is a sequal, sorry. Things are mentioned liked we, as the read, are suppose to know already about them. The characters in the book are ho hum. They are very one sided or flat. Many different story lines start the book and then are dropped when the "real story" starts. Then they are picked back up later and treated as not important. I will say this Ms. Rosenburg does know about the law, but knowing about the law and writing an interesting book about it are two totally different things.
