Customer Reviews

Pick this up - you won't be disappointed!

The characters are bigger than life which suits the story and the beautiful dangerous locale of the desert. Terrific writing - a thriller with a super romance wrapped around it.. Wonderfully plotted story. The writers give the reader a story rich in details. The fully fleshed characters are provided a detailed background and by the end of the novel you know them better than you know your friends. The writers give us a great plot and super likeable heroes. Readers should beware that there is substantial violence toward one of the main characters. Don't miss the sequel Threads of Destiny

Mystery, combined with romantic passion, equals a great book

Take one career driven, fiercely independent lawyer; add one career driven, fiercely independent forensic pathologist for the FBI; mix with a series of murders involving a sadistic killer who operates out of the Sonoran Desert and you have an interesting book that is hard to put down until you finish it. Cara Cipriano and Jake Biscayne have a history. A couple of years before the book begins, Cara humiliated Jake as she testified in another case. Neither of them has forgotten it and their dislike for each other is apparent when they are brought together to work on the same case. Both of them want to find the person who is leaving bodies on both sides of the Mexican border. The book features wonderful character development and vivid descriptions of the landscape of the area. Cara and Jake are drawn progressively closer together until a sudden flood catches them unaware in the desert. Cara is seriously hurt helping Jake and Jake feels responsible to help her recover, which becomes a turning point in their relationship. A number of supporting characters assist in fleshing out this book and provide memorable moments. There is violence in the book, but it is appropriate to the story. And there is a terrible betrayal near the end of the story which provides a shock quality. The action is fast paced and the descriptive work in the story makes you feel like you're in the scenes. This book does have a sequel, Threads of Destiny, which elaborates on the character developments and some of the subplots. If you like mystery, adventure, romance and magnetic characters, you definitely want to buy this book.
