A Definite Keeper to read and read again

This is the best book I have read in a long time. While I was reading it, it was hard to believe that this was the author's first book. I can't wait to read her newest "Her Bodyguard"

Most Original First Book

This was a delight to read and I didn't want to put it down. The characters are extremely well drawn out, the love scenes are tender and erotic and the dialog is fun. Her second book "Stargazer" is also very original.

Of course HE makes me hot, but SHE makes me smile.

These two characters have brains and hearts. He's about the sexiest thing this side of heaven. She has a life and lives it. The tension is as thick and hot as molten lava between his will and hers. Ms. Jerott's writing is clean and a precise as a scalpel. The 'ride' starts with the first sentence and ends only with the last. To a prospective reader, my advice - don't start this book on a week night. If Ms. Jerott's next work is written at one-third the skill level, I'd still purchase her third book the moment it is published. To the author, thank you for making Dulcie real, human, and intelligent.

I absolutely adored this debut contemporary romance

The police finally have a witness, willing to testify that he saw crime boss Jacob Mitsumi kill a man. Desperate to keep the eyewitness safe, police Detective Bobby Halloran convinces his former partner Dulcie Quinn to hide the man on her houseboat. She reluctantly agrees to protect the man from Mitsumi's goons because his men brutally beat her and ended her law enforcement career.Julien Langlois is a gorgeous hunk, who plans to seduce his jailer so he can go about his real agenda without her interference. The witness wants to personally kill Mitsumi, who is responsible for the vicious murder of Julien's teenage brother. The confinement leads to a growing passion and Julien and Dulcie begin to fall in love. However, he has a quest to complete and Mitsumi plans to eliminate the only person willing to send him up the river. This leaves little room for love to flourish.Readers will find it no trouble to read Michele Jerott's wonderful debut novel, ABSOLUTE TROU! BLE. This award-winning novel is an action-packed sizzler due to the heat generated by the lead protagonists. The suspense-laden story line adds much excitement to a terrific tale that should draw a deserving Ms. Jerott a large fan base from both the romantic suspense and contemporary romance sub-genres.Harriet Klausner
