Summary: Graham proves she remembers the romance!
Review: Heather Graham is a writer that seems to do it all. Historicals set in Scotland, Historicals set during the Florida Civil War, Historicals about siblings torn apart during the War Between the States, and hard-edge Contemporary Suspense. So it won't be a surprise to find this is another in her endless line a good reads.

Alex McCord is just getting her life back together following a very rough divorce. She is facing a good job in the Florida Keys, and maybe a new romance. Then her ex-hubby arrives. David Denham is ever more handsome and troublesome. David knows something is rotten in paradise, and needs his ex-wife to prove it.

While they are trying to stop a killer, they cannot fight the killer attraction between them that still simmers, despite everything that has gone between them in the past. David is drop dead sexy, a really great Alpha hero and Alex is a charmer, too.

So many of the writers who came up through series romance in the last twenty years seems to have forgotten their romance fans and their romance roots. I often see fans bemoaning, "where's the romance" in their works. Delightfully, that is NOT the case with Grahams strong sexy, sizzling suspense - the romance is there in spades!

Summary: A Strong Romantic Suspense
Review: Ms. Graham is a very talented author who has returned to her roots as a serial romance author with her latest effort. As a result she has given us another great read that is short and to the point but has great characterization and a fast moving plot that will have readers turning the pages.

The suspense portion of this read is great. You are really left to guessing who the killer is out of a cast of several likely suspects. There are enough red herrings thrown out that you are truly left guessing until the final pages. The chemistry between our main characters is great and the fact that they have a past relationship actually only addes to the the push and pull of their new and growing attraction.

This was a first class read by a great author whom I pick up simply because her name graces the cover. I highly recommend this read and really any other titles that she has penned.
