Tall, Dark, and Deadly

I'm a HG fan, but I can't say that I was into reading the new age stuff. I'm into her Civil War novels, but I went to the library one day and this book was the only one they had by her so I picked it up I took it home and had it done inside of two days. I didn't like Drop Dead Gorgeous a hole lot and didn't think this one would be much better, but boy, was I wrong. WOW, what a good book full of suspence and passion. It ran right up there with the McKenzie Saga.

Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down. Heather had me guessing who the killer was up to the very end of the book. The characters were interesting with their own little problems. The reading was very easy going, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good murder mystery.

Summers are slow, lazy, and hot; Heather Graham's latest thriller was just what I needed to give me a little chill...her 'tall, dark, and deadly' villain seemed so real that I found myself checking the doors and windows before I went to bed. The romance between Sam and Rowan developed naturally before reaching a gratifying intensity. I also loved the scene-setting. It was so dreamy and enticing that I think I want to buy a house on the ocean...

This was the first Heather Graham book I've read, and I enjoyed it completely. I couldn't put the book down. I was also probably the only reader who was unaware of the major typos everyone is mentioning. I guess i am not a person who really notices those things.

From the ghastly, engrossing first page through the suspense-filled surprise ending, Graham's new novel reads like the book Mary Higgins Clark has been trying to write for years. Graham manages to make one actually feel the sweaty atmosphere of hot, humid southern Florida, so much so, that as one tears through the the pages of this pulse-pounding and ever-so romantic thriller,this reader found himself mopping his brow on more than one occasion. As for characters, each one has a rich and unique personality, seldom seen in the genre. Ms. Graham's moments of humor are apt, never calculated and always derive honestly from the characters, as well as being welcome tension breakers. If you've never read a Heather Graham novel-GET THIS ONE! For suspense, romantic or otherwise, it just doesn't get any better. Bravo! Ms. Graham. You've done it again!
