Romantic Suspense
Carla Cassidy's The Perfect Family reads like a stretched out series romance. It has several series romance elements - most notably a small town setting and a pair of re-united lovers. It's a pleasant enough read but it's nothing truly memorable.

Fans of romantic suspense who enjoy mature, adult characters who don't flounce around and act silly will love Lethal Lies, and readers who are tired of the psychic-heroine-versus-skeptic-cop storyline will rejoice - there's not a trace of the woo-woo stuff to be found here. For years, Chelsea ...
Though Depth Perception is a tightly written novel of romantic suspense by an author at the top of her game, it's odd that the first thought that comes to my mind as I start this review is to make it clear who shouldn't read this book: Anyone who just can't bring themselves to read about the murder ...

Does your significant other wonder why you are so fond of romance? Is he a fan of mysteries and suspense and would not dream of reading a romance novel? Do the covers of romance turn him off? Well then, slip him a copy of Susan Andersen's Exposure, a wonderful romance novel in suspense novel's cloth ...
Bodyguard Rescue is one of the more impressive series debuts I've read in some time. This may be Donna Young's first release, but you'd never know it from the book itself, which outshines what many veteran authors are delivering these days.

After a weeklong mission in a So ...
In The Search, the latest book by Christiane Heggan, the author throws readers right into the action at the very beginning and never lets the pace slacken. As the story opens, readers meet prosecutor (and heroine) Sydney Cooper immediately after she's won a difficult criminal case. Afterward, Syd ...

Linda Howard's last few books were intense with a capital I. Based on the dark moody cover and the dark moody title, the gentle reader might expect another dark moody book like Cry No More. But To Die For is a total change of pace for Linda Howard.
When Blair Mallory caught her husband kissing he ...
It never fails to amaze me how some heroines always manage to find a military commando when they need one. Heroes for regular romance can be lawyers, actors, even politicians, but for romantic suspense, it seems, you really need an ex-Navy guy. This book provides one, but also serves as a cautionary ...

There don’t seem to be too many people who feel lukewarm about Suzanne Brockmann; either you love her or you hate her. I love her; I think she’s the most consistently entertaining romance author around. That’s not to say that I think her books are flawless. Hot Target is a good example of a Br ...
