Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Completely Bored
Review: I found this novel pedestrian, and after 56 pages I had to give up because nothing really happens and I just couldn't find anything about the characters to keep me going.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Real Page Turner!
Review: I loved this book!

Ms. Johnson's wonderful story kept me going -- her plot was intriguing with enough suspects to keep me wondering whodunit right up until the very end. Her descriptive abilities brought the entire book alive for me -- pulling me into the story even further and further with each page.

I can't wait to get my hands on the next one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very intriguing mystery and red-hot romance
Review: When former professional body builder Candy Emerson is found dead in her Rehoboth Beach gym, the police rule it a tragic accident. Novice insurance investigator Colleen Fitzgerald disagrees, putting both her life and her heart on the line to find Candy's killer.

Colleen soon discovers that while suspects are many (including Candy's unstable ex-lover, her business partner, a violence- prone drug dealer, and her rivals on the bodybuilding circuit, clues are tantalizingly few. Also tantalizing to Colleen is aerobics instructor Gillian Smith, who is rumored to have had an affair with Candy.

I liked this book because the mystery is very clever and difficult to solve, and because the tension between Colleen and Gillian is so believable and well done. Barbara Johnson is a very good writer, who makes the reader feel like she is right there with the characters -- whether on the Delaware beaches or at the mercy of the murderer.
