I really liked this book. It's a topic that is so out there, that you can't help but get sucked in to find out what the outcome will be. Plus, the fact that Bess falls for her bad boy savior, is intriguing. Bess is all black and white, right and wrong. Well, Kaldak is anything but. He takes care of himself no matter where that takes him on the side of right and wrong. Bess at first isn't sure that she can trust him, but once that's sorted out, she puts all her trust in him alone.

Bess is selfless, brave and determined. I loved her character and thought the photography aspect was perfect for this story. I also enjoyed the part that Josie played, and everything that Bess and Emily did for her.

Overall, this one ranks toward the top of my favorites from this author. If you haven't picked her up, I'd suggest others before this one, but this would definitely make the list. ( )

Very good thriller. I highly recommend it. ( )

And Then You Die has a lot in common with The Ugly Duckling (which I lost before I finished). There is a delicate looking but strong woman who is exposed to terrible violence and bloodshed and survives, just barely, a physical attack. Enter a strong but not really handsome man with gorgeous eyes. He is pushy and saves the woman though her determination to live makes all the difference. The bad guys keep trying to find and kill the woman for mysterious reasons; the man knows the reason but is keeping it a secret for his own reasons. The man helps the woman to get revenge. They have sex and fall in love. There is more killing and some good guys who are trusted friends die.
