Follow up to Cross My Heart. In that book we met Molly & Hunter and it ended with Molly leaving. We pick up in this book w/Molly finding her real father, but he is arrested for murder & she needs Hunter to help him. When she goes to ask for his help she finds him in a messy apartment, looking pretty bad and with another woman. Of course she flees and he goes after her. It's while he is helping with her fathers case that he realizes he still loves her, faults and all. This time around though he tells himself he will walk away from her. Mystery and romance. Great read.

I've taken out several Carly Phillips books out of the library this past week(Body Heat, The Right Choice, Under the Boardwalk, Sealed with a Kiss) and been reading them one after the other. Apparently, Carly only has one story in her and all the books are variations on a theme. The heroine will be "running away from her family" for some reason. She has an annoying habit of licking her lips alot which the hero finds erotic. The hero, who often has an injured shoulder, is in law enforcement in some manner, and has had an unhappy childhood in foster homes. The injured shoulder leads to a lot of the heroine-on-top sex. All smooches are full of really gymnastic tongues- including the first getting to know you kiss. There's often an unusual pet involved who is unusually and unrealistically precocious. Seriously, all of these things are present in all four books that I've read. Read one? You've read them all.
Two star at best.

More suspense from Phillips in this follow-up to Cross My Heart. The ending is a bit of a surprise.
