Customer Reviews

Pleasantly surprised.

I must admit I was extremely hesitant to purchase this book. I've never been a fan of contemporary romance, preferring instead to escape into historicals, and finding that contemporaries can be on occassion more vulgar than I am willing to read. However I had read every other book written by Suzanne Enoch, and was confidant that if anyone could satisfactorily introduce me to contemporaries it would be her. I am pleased to say that I wasn't disappointed. Both leads were likeable, the dialogue was witty and fun, and the plot was fast-paced and kept my attention. Also I'll admit I have a weakness for attractive British billionaires (really, who doesn't?). If you are only hesitating from purchasing this book because it's a contemporary, hesitate no longer. Snatch it up now and enjoy a quick, satisfying read by an extremely talented author.

Marvelous Genre Jump!

I do love Enoch's historicals so I was slightly hesitant to read her first contemporary. Thank goodness I did! Flirting with Danger is a fast, fun romp and I have tosay I think that her contemporary voice is even better than her historical one. I won't give a plot synopsis. You can get that from the book description. Sam is a wonderful heroine. I loved how unashamed she was of her past. She's unique and interesting and wholly likeable in her twisted nature. How rare is that? And Rick? Oh my. Rich - check. Hot beyond hot - check. Totally adores Sam - check. Strong, muscular, handsome - check. Yeah, nice one. Fun and interesting mystery. Excellent secondary characters. Steamy hot chemistry. Great dialog. I quite enjoyed Flirting With Danger and I'll definitely be looking forward to the others in the series!

Could Not Get Enough

This book was an exceptional read. I usually tend to stick to historical without the occasional modern. This is definitely on my list to read again which almost never happens with modern romance. The characters were believable and not to contrived. Sam's attraction to Rick was visible from first sight and Rick's attraction to Sam was evident from the second break in. Their mutual lust brought them together to solve the crime which played nicely against the romance and was not suddenly pushed to the back. The changes they brought to each others life gave them things they were missing in their own lives which led to slow trust and then love. I love this book and wholeheartedly recommend it.

Funny First Contemporary

Flirting with Danger is a well written novel and I am looking forward to the next installment. I laughed so hard. Suzanne Enoch normally writes historicals. I had read an excerpt for this novel and was just a little nervous about reading it. I however thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for an excellent book. The heroine does a few stupid things that cause the reader to laugh as well as the stupid things the hero does. It takes place in the United Staets which is also a step away from normalcy for Ms. Enoch. There is murder and intrigue that draws the reader in as well as the chemistry between the two main characters. The second in the series will be out in January and continues to follow the story of Samantha Jellicoe and Richard Addison.

PUT IT ON THE KEEPER SHELF

It seems like so many historical romance authors are turning to modern romances and some are doing a better job than others. Ms. Enoch is one of those doing better. Rick and Sam are complex characters that catch your interest and hold it. The plot works, the characters work, we have humor, we have sex, we have conflict and the story pulls you in and won't let go. It's one of those books you don't want to end. Fortunately, it won't since Ms. Enoch tells us at the end of this book that another Rick and Sam story is on the way. Can't wait! For a GREAT cat burglar/historical romance, read Connie Brockway's ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT.
