Summary: I was looking for sizzle & got fizzle
Review: Good story line but I normally buy an Intimate Moments title for the sensuality -- in that area this one was really a dud.

Summary: Creighton at her best!
Review: Kathleen Creighton's rich characterizations, emotional depth, vividly described settings, and ability to create a sizzling magic between her heroes and heroines without slapping you in the face with what passes for sexual tension in far too many books has made me a devoted fan for many years. Her latest IM, THE SEDUCTION OF GOODY TWO-SHOES, is Creighton at her best. Her hero is an American expatriate living in Mexico, a social recluse/artist/beach bum, who finds himself sucked into helping out a biologist turned government agent when her partner/pretend husband takes ill. A more unlikely pair you'll never see. . .but watching the jaded McCall's defenses crumble under the pressure of Ellie's fervent determination to set at least part of the world to rights is an absolute delight. Ellie is idealistic but not naive; McCall is crusty without being obnoxious. If you like a touch of suspense and danger in your stories, but are looking for something a bit different -- and for a romance that, even within the parameters of a short time frame, still doesn't seem rushed or based solely on physical attraction -- this just might be the ticket.

Summary: Storyline from back of book
Review: THE SEDUCTION OF GOODY TWO-SHOES - Kathleen CreightonPARTNERS IN CRIME?
When agent Ellie Lanagan's "husband" was suddenly taken ill,
she knew she needed a replacement, pronto. The least likely
candidate for the job: seeming drifter McCall -- no last
name, just McCall -- who had saved her neck three times
already. So should she offer her... hero the chance to save
her from the enemy? Or was HE the enemy? OR LOVE? Obviously McCall had a soft spot for the pretty tourist he called Cinnamon, but she was driving him crazy in more ways
than one. Who was she, really? An innocent, MARRIED woman
with incredibly poor judgment? Or part of the biggest scam
this side of the Caribbean? And by getting involved with her,
would he wind up in jail? Or in her arms?
