One thing I would recommend, a stronger editing. I found myself rereading in places because of grammatical errors or typos.

I was given this book for free in exchange for a review. show less

A successful woman judge hires a disgraced ex cop as her bodyguard. Chick lit? Yes, but with some mystery to make it interesting. The two have a history with secrets they don't want to share

I enjoyed this book. The writing for the most part was crisp and the plot kept my interest. Great beach read.

Member's Giveaway. An interesting if slightly unrealistic thriller. The writing is tight and story flow is nicely paced. A hunk of a hero and a beautiful heroine make the reader's wish-fulfilment dreams alive, but some of the characters and situations are just a little improbable, but this is what this sort of romantic fiction is all about! The writing needs to be proof read (libel case not liable case for example and many more).
