This book started out slow for me and initially felt scripted. However there is a lot of food for thought about our actions during a crisis. Would make a great book club book!

Murder mystery that began rather slowly but picked up speed quickly. Various interesting characters. Along with the murder mystery the topic of domestic violence was introduced and discussed by using examples. Thoughtful that a section on domestic violence was included at the end, including signs of abuse, ways to support the victim, etc..

Nice and naughty book. Two characters from worlds most of us don't understand, come together for the benefit of their families, not for love. It is a good, unpredictable read.

This is one of my favorite authors and this book had slipped by me. I loved it. Great read. Great story and with an ending that made sense!

4. 5 stars rounded down for a fast moving book that I couldn't put down. I read 105 pp the first day and the rest of this 396 page book on the second day. I have read 34 books by Connelly and enjoyed every single one. In this book, reporter Jack McEvoy is questioned by LAPD detectives because a woman that he met in a bar 1 year ago has been murdered. Jack investigates and believes that she was murdered by a serial killer. There is a connection to a consumer DNA company. He does solve the mystery, with help from Emily Atwater, another reporter at Fair Warning, the online newspaper where he works, and ex FBI agent Rachel Walling. The book refers to incidents in previous books and I recommend that you read them in order.

I mostly enjoyed this book. I thought Kya "Marsh Girl" was a resilient character and Tate was a compassionate character, but was disappointed by the ending. I also thought that the poems sprinkled throughout the book were too much in some of the chapters. Owens was very descriptive in her writing and I could vividly picture the setting. Overall I enjoyed the book until the last chapter.

This is an erotic romance that will rev your engine. From the beginning you can tell where it will lead but it is very worth the read. Lots of different types of love in this one so not for the prudish.

This story has a lot of heart - not just in the romance part but in other friendships too. It is a feel good book for sure. It was so what easy to predict but the writing style made it worth continuing.

Rebecca reveals exactly what it was like to be trafficked. This story had me laughing, crying, che king my assumptions and ripped open. Rebecca's coming to faith story is so inspiring!

The images are breath taking. The story is enticing. Next read is the original text to get the full complexity of the characters. But the graphic novel is excellently done.
