I wasn't too sure what I was getting as I read the first few pages ... BUT ... it turned into a terrific read. Lots of action ...lots of chuckles... I'm glad I didn't take a pass on this one.
As usual, Karen Robards writes a compelling story. Good read.
A little different from what I am used to with this author. Overall, pretty good though.
lots of fun and suspense!!!!(and romance)
A bit scary in parts, but only as any murder-mystery can be. Well-written to keep the action moving. The interplay between heroine and hero is tense, serious and funny, all at the same time, so intriguing. Unanticipated twists and turns confound the plot. A good read.

I like Karen Robards contemporary romance/suspence books. This is one of my favorites. Alot of her heros tend to be really rough around the edges alpha males, which happen to be my favorites to read about.
This book has a different cover but is the same book inside a great read!
The nude male body lay on the embalming table, battered beyond recognition. Gingerly, Summer McAfee, chairman, CEO, and sole employee of Daisy Fresh cleaning service, reached out to touch an arm to reassure herself that she hadn't just seen the corpse move. Suddenly, shockingly, her hand was in the viselike grip of a man very much alive and desperate enough to take her captive on a no-holds-barred run from cops, killers, and his own decidedly complicated past...
Summer's former life as a New York lingerie model had gone south with her marriage, leaving her, at thirty-six, single and back home in Tennessee, on her hands and knees scrubbing other people's bathrooms. But the drab present vanishes in a flash as she's forced to flee into the Tennessee wilds with the stranger she calls Frankenstein, first as his captive, then his companion, as they run from the enemies determined to destroy them both--straight into a raging passion that could only be the last laugh of fate...
