This is a laugh-out-loud,tears-running-down-the face hysterical book that does not take anything away from the storyline with the humor. It's about a mousy, plain librarian that wakes up one day and decides it is time to change her life to everyone's amazement and glee. When she decides to change her life, she is in for much more than she originally bargained for: murder, drugs, smuggling, and love!
Few authors tie a little X-rated romance together with a tricky mystery plot as well as Linda Howard. This one loops back and forth, leaving the law with wa-a-a-y too many suspects after the murder of a light-loving lady.

OMG! This book was so not what I expected and such a great read!!! My favorite line had to be about having the affair while you wait for the relationship.....It was great - I love to watch an unexpected and unaccepted relationship form, bubble and blossom before me on the pages. A great romance, a great back story, and most of all a great story. 5 stars and worth the time! Enjoy!
