I always think that I should read more of romantic suspense because it's a really good mix of things I like in my reads. And they very quickly too! I also think that I should read more of Nora Roberts / J.D. Robb but I don't... Too many books vying for my attention!

This book has languished for many years and I had to literally dust it off but it did not disappoint. I couldn't put it down. The romance. The mystery. The suspense. I love it. I could actually see in this pairing something similar to Eve & Roarke though so that kinda tickled me (in all the right places).

The FMC, Abigail Lowery, is very intelligent and had lived a very sheltered life so her speech as well as other social awkwardness were pretty funny and endearing. The MMC, Brooks Gleason, is on who always gets what he wants and he wants Abigail. While he had his alpha moment, it was good to see that he pulled back on that too because as Abigail said, she can look after herself fine. I love how things worked out the way Abigail planned with Brooks playing support role!

Would love to hear which Nora Roberts' I should read next ;)
