I don't think I've read this author previously. I think she does suspense/mystery tolerably well, but if you think about it, the romance is rushed from meeting to getting engaged (only a few months if I'm reading this right). Now, don't get me wrong. I'm glad Nick was there to help Alexis out, and I can see a dating relationship developing out of this--but it's the engagement at the end of the book that's bothersome to me.

I did like the dog, Raven, though yes, she does seem a little untrained, especially in the hands of a novice like Alexis, who doesn't even like dogs. So, let's throw her together with the veterinarian (Nick)for a bit more of a plot twist.

Did Alexis do the right thing by breaking attorney-client privilege to report a murderer? The State of Washington says no. I'm not sure if the murderer expected attorney-client privilege in that scenario though--we only hear about it second-hand in this book so there's no way to know. It does seem that the censure has affected Alexis to the point that she feels she's ruined her father's political aspirations as well as her own career. I'm glad to see that it didn't really matter to the townspeople who knew her nor did it seem to matter to Nick.

I'm sure the police were upset at losing a drug detection dog--though it seems Nick may have applied for some funds for a K9 late in the book. I'm glad Raven got to become a therapy dog--and I'm glad Alexis got over her fear of dogs. ( )
