WHEN NIGHT FALLS is the must read book of the summer. I literaly could not put it down. When I wasn't reading it I was thinking about when I would be able to again.

It is difficult to combine the two but Jenna Mills has done an outstanding job. She is an author to watch because she is incredibly talented and awe inspiring.

When Night Falls is an intense, very dark and very passionate story. I'm not a reader of dark romance novels. I tend to like them light and funny. However Jenna Mills' strong writing voice is hart to resist.Wealthy entrepreneur Liam Armstrong's teenage daughter is missing. And the only person willing and able to help him is Detective Jessica Clarke, the daughter of the man whose mission it was to see him behind bars. Liam is strong, dangerous and very sexy. But Jessica is not someone to give up or back down. She is intelligent and confident and knows what it feels like to grow up as the daughter of a prominent man. With the enforced proximity of the investigation it comes as no surprise that Jessica, in her beauty, strength and compassion gets to Liam. He might be struggling against the strong attraction, but loses the battle when she reaches out to him in understanding and warmth. When Night Falls is fast paced, driven, unforgiving in its intensity, highly sensual and emotionally very satisfying!

All I can say about When Night Falls is *WOW*! Now I know why Romantic Times gave it 4-1/2 Stars and a Top Pick. The story grabbed me from the moment I started reading and it didn't let go. I'm still thinking about it, long after closing the book. If you like riveting, fast-paced stories with strong, sexy heros and spunky heroines, then you'll love WNF.

She has to force herself to remain objective, while she battles years of prejudice against Liam Armstrong, as well as her startling attraction to him.
