Summary: Well Written and Original
Review: When Sara Carstairs is acquitted of the murder of her brother-in-law, Max Worthe knows instinctively that she is hiding something, especially when she disappears without a trace after the trial. For the next three years, he uses his newspaper to keep the story alive and find the truth of what really happened the night William Neville disappeared. After a chance meeting with Sara herself, Max is angry at himself for being very attracted to a woman he believes is a murdering slut. Despite his feelings, Sara is apparently in some serious trouble and he is determined to help her whether she wants it or not. Sara's feelings for Max are just as jumbled. She hates him for the condemnation he has subjected her to in his newspaper, but is also mutually attracted to him. However, someone wants her dead and Max isn't giving her a choice in his protection so she grudgingly accepts his help. Together, they come up with a plan to draw out her enemy but the closer they get to the truth, the more desperate he becomes and the more danger they are in.Strangers At Dawn is a definite page-turner with great characters. The two leads are strong people who are very likable. I wasn't sure if I would like Max at first. He comes off in the beginning as very judgmental and harsh, but he develops into a great hero and he is able to own up to his mistakes and apologize. And don't we all secretly want someone like Max who is determined to protect and defend us? Sara is also a very lovable heroine. She's strong, caring and mature. She's had a very hard life, but she doesn't let it warp her. This is my first story by Elizabeth Thornton and I was very impressed. I'll have to read more of her work.

Summary: ON YOUR MARK, GET SET. . .GO!!!!!
Review: WOW! What a story. You will race to the end of this one to find out who did it. Lots of plot twists. The story grabs you from the beginning and doesn't let go. Good love story complicated by murder and an inability to trust. Great characters that you truly care for and just plain great story telling. This is a must read....
