Rating: Summary: The best book I have read in a long long time!! Review: I could not put this book down!! I stayed up til 2 in the morning because I just had to know what was going to happen. From page one til the end it keeps you on your toes and guessing.
Rating: Summary: Predictable Review: I find no entertainment or enjoyment in stories that involve cruelty and death to animals, particularly having lost two of my own in the past couple of years. Add this to the fact that the story was completely predictable and not a single twist came up to give it even the tiniest bit of suspense or surprise, and you're better off spending your money on Carlene Thompson or Meryl Sawyer.
Rating: Summary: Captivating Romantic Suspense Review: Romantic suspense is at its very best with this latest read from Ms. Wainscott. Wrapped up in one terrific package is a rampant serial killer, a controlling husband, a beaten-down wife, and a handsome mysterious loner all connected in this intricate and suspenseful plot. With the reappearance of "Spooky Silas" Koole, Katie is reminded of the girl she used to be before she married local vet and her savior, Ben Ferguson. After her mother died, Katie lived with another family and was befriended by Ben who had aided her when Gary, the bully, injured her kitten. Now, after nine years of marriage, Katie is but a shell of her former self, complacent and pleasing, no longer the spirited girl Silas remembered. Even as Silas warns Katie to trust no one, the serial killer strikes again, leaving no body, and Silas is the main suspect. And fear strikes Katie, as the list of possible suspects cleverly emerges: Is it Gary, the kitten abuser and gruff cop, Harold, the creepy "art" dealer, Silas, who empathetically feels the killer, or Ben, the town hero and control freak husband? As love emerges between loner Silas and a damaged Katie, it becomes so much more than just romance, mainly a culmination of life-long love deepening into mature adult love. As they begin to trust one another, Katie is forced to question her marriage, her mother's death years before, and her life, as she has known it for the last nine years. Ms. Wainscott's latest is a masterpiece of mystery, chock full of suspense, and brimming with romantic attraction. Readers unfamiliar with this rising star's work will definitely want to check out this latest suspenseful novel.

Rating: Summary: Predictable Review: SUMMARY: Katie is trapped in a secure, but passionateless, mariage with Ben, the local veterinarian several years her senior. Growing up poor on the outskirts of town, Katie was looked down on through most of her childhood, and is virtually ignored as an adult. Silas, a mysterious and odd friend from Katie's childhood, returns to town just a series of baffling and vicious murders ravages the surrounding area. Silas has an emotional, psychic connection with the killer, and realizes Katie is the ultimate target. Can he save her from the killer and/or save her from himself? WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT: Wainscott is a terrific writer, with excellent characterization, and a real knack for bringing this small town saga to life. WHY YOU WON'T: The plot is terribly predictable, and all the "secrets" that this small town holds are decipherable, if you pay close enough attention, very early on in the novel. Katie is portrayed as the ultimate victim, sometimes maddeningly so. Even when Katie finds her strength, she's still wimpy. The conclusion, while only cursory satisfactory, leaves much to be desired. BOTTOM LINE: Worth the time and the frustration to discover Wainscott, who has a real gift as her later, richer novels, clearly demonstrate.
Rating: Summary: Suspensfull Review: This book keeps you guessing throughout the book. It is great. It is a book that you can't put down.
Rating: Summary: Suspense, Murder, and Paranoia Review: Unforgivable is a fun read that is hard to put down. I bought it because Tina Wainscott was featured in a Naples magazine and I was headed to Naples for a weekend at my condo on Gulf Shore. She was a new author to me, and I will go back and look for more of her books. Kattie grows up thinking that her mother killed herself when she was 26. She is now 26 herself and has matured into a timid woman who thinks she is unattractive and unliked by the people in her town. These impressions have been fostered on her by her all too doting husband. A couple of local girls disappear and it is feared that a serial killer is on the loose. None of the people that Kattie's husband will "allow" her to associate with make her feel safe. Along comes the boy from her childhood who is now a man who can still make her feel safe and protected even though the townpeople suspect him of being the killer. Together they solve the mystery. Buy the book !
