If you like the Stephanie Plum series or a quick read, this is the story for you.
Stephanie, the lovable and at times confused bounty hunter, is back in this "between the numbers novel" about finding "love" for 5 very lovable, yet finding it hard to find love, people. Diesel (a Ranger/Morelli combo with the same amount of arrogance and attitude) has come to Stephanie for help. It would seem that the...

I had anticipated reading this installment of the Pendergast saga for some time, and that is why I think I am so conflicted about this review.

He sets the scene with care....pink rose petals, champagne, caviar and sexually enhancing drugs, to make women plyant and willing.

Eve is still on the top of her game!
"Born in Death" by JD Robb is wonderful, and a slight departure in my opinion from the other "In Death" novels in series, in that for the first time, Eve and Roarke's pasts are seldomly mentioned. Although Eve dreams in this novel, it is about "fanged and flying babies" because she has anxiety about being her best frie...
