Summary: Where's the beef?
Review: This book had great potential, but the author seemed to lose the mystery during the development of the relationship between Elizabeth and the police character. It felt like the book couldn't decide if it was a mystery or a romance novel. While I really enjoyed some of Hoag's other books, this one was really lacking a sense of direction. The minor characters were totally unbelievable and the clues screamed out who the killer was early on in the book. Definitely not a book I would recommend to a serious mystery reader.

Summary: One of Tami Hoag's best
Review: It was another great book by Tami Hoag, my favorite of hers however, was Cry Wolf, if you want to read a really great novel, try that one and this. Also A Thin Dark Line. Here I'll tell you a little about itWhen Elizabeth Stuart moves to Still Water, she expects peace for her and her son after her messy divorce. But a mere two weeks after she moved, her car stalls, and when she walks to a neighbors house, she finds a dead man with his throat slashed. A man with plenty of people with enough reasons to want him dead. Dane Jentzen is the sheriff of Still Water, and he's finding it hard to believe that there is a killer in his small little town. So he turns to the obvious person, Elizabeth Stuart, who is, in the town's opion, a dirty slut, but so beautiful, no man can resist her. Dane, still hurting after his wife left him after his football career ended, becasue of a serious knee injury, wants nothing to do with Elizabeth, but starts to fall for her anyway. As does Elizabeth, although she, too has been hurt by love, and in her words that she's sworn off men. But she may need help, because the killer may have little unfinished buiness. Like a witness.

Summary: Not what I expected
Review: This was the first Tami Hoag book that I've read. I was extremely disappointed. I figured out the ending near the beginning of the book. I only continued to read because the book kept showing signs of having a twist to the tale. I could hardly keep my eyes open while attempting to read this book. I will read Tami Hoag again because I have heard good reviews about her books, but if the next one isn't any better than Still Waters, then it will be my last. Boring characters, dull plot, no suspense.

Summary: Still Waters
Review: This was really a great read! I loved it and plan to read more of Tami Hoag's books. Smooth writing.I didn't want it to end!
Rating: 
Summary: Don't try if you are going to complain about the romance.
Review: I really enjoyed this book, but you have to be aware that is a cross over book between thriller and romance. Don't expect it to be like her most recent novels, and you will really enjoy this for what it is - an entertaining book with two very likable characters.

Summary: Didn't expect a romance novel
Review: This is the first book I have read by Tami Hoag. Somehow I didn't realize it would be such a romance-type work, with the leading lady getting sexually worked up every time she came within a foot of almost any male, including her son. Still, I kept reading it, and the plot wasn't bad.

Summary: Gratifying but tough
Review: I've read several of Tami Hoag's novels and found this one to have the same potential harrowing effect "Guilty as Sin" and "A Thin Dark Line" built up, but it was drawn out and weighted down by the rather violent nature of the relationship between the primary characters (Elizabeth and Dane). The secondary relationships were well drawn, the characters evolving with Ms. Hoag's usual style; the plight of teenagers and the generation gap were well illustrated; and as a whole it was enjoyable. However, the disgust and malice often displayed between the two key protagonists truly began to disturb me. Domestic abuse and disrespect between people (especially lovers) was as chilling to me here as the murder theme central to "Still Waters." Ms. Hoag still remains on my short list of must-read authors, however; her latest works especially are well worth exploring.

Summary: It's a stink bomb
Review: I really liked Guilty as Sin & Night Sins. This book was a poorly disguised Harlequin romance. I never guess book endings, this one was so obvious that I knew it at about page 200. It was difficult to finish. It really stunk up the joint. It will be a long time before I attempt another Tami Hoag novel.

Summary: Still Waters
Review: Enjoyed 'Guilty as Sin' & 'Night Sins' so much, but have been disappointed since. 'Still Waters' is a 'bodice ripper' thinly disguised as a mystery. Tammy can do much better

Summary: Finally a book of Tami Hoag's caliber
Review: I have loved Tami Hoag books for years. However, I was very disappointed in a Thin Line and Magic. This book actually is the awesome writing of Tami Hoag as found in Cry Wolf and Dark Paradise. It was a page turner! It was inevitable for the two characters to be in love, but the writing and thrills were riveting just like the titles mentioned above. Tami Hoag is miles ahead of Patricia Cornwell, who is a very predictable and boring author.
