I just love me a great romantic suspense story. I cut my teeth on Nancy Drew mysteries so tend to pick up a good mystery more often than not. Mix in some romance and you got me for sure.
You know how when you're driving in icy weather and you tend to clutch the steering wheel till your fingers get numb and your whole body is tensed? Well, that's how I was through much of this book. Wow, and I just realized that it only 266 pages! Believe me, there is a whole lot on story here. I love a book that can drag me so deep into it that I consciously have to force myself back to reality.
While, I'd not be happy tromping through the swamps these characters had no hesitation. I'd have crapped my pants at the first sign of movement, sure I was about to be some gator's little snack. Nope, keep me on dry land.
While I've not read book one in this series (I do intend to remedy that), I had no trouble connecting to the story or the characters as Sandlin gives you just enough details to make the story seamless. So if you want a great edge of your seat read grap this series. Just start it early enough that you can read it in one sitting as you won't be able to go to sleep till it's finished.
