Bad to the Bone

I enjoyed this book. It skips around a lot, so if you have a short attention span, you may get lost. For me this was a page turner. I finished the book in three days, because I was so eager to get to the end of the book.

"Bad to the Bone" is suspenseful. It is a good, exciting book. Sherissa Holland is unaware that she has been put on a list -- not for the best reporter of the year or even for the best dressed female, but shockingly put on a hit list! Her fiance' or ex-fiance' is in stuff up to his head and is about to get Sherissa taken down with him. However, the homicide detective Peter Linwood has caught Sherissa's eye and become enchanted with her. Peter's instincts tells him there is more than what meets the eye when an upcoming boxer dies after being run down in the same area where Sherissa works and jogs.Sherissa's and Peter's first meeting gets off to a bad start. Sherissa is not at all receptive of Peter. It takes a lot of cunning on Peter's part, but he is determined to do what his gut feeling tells him and that is to protect Sherissa at all costs. Sherissa's ex is not getting a good deal all the way around. He is rejected by Sherissa, loses his life long dream of owning his own company, as well as a chance at losing his freedom. Oh well, that's what happen when things are so wrong, they go bad to the bone. The good news is that Sherissa's eyes are opened in time and some of the bad turns to good.
