Exciting Romantic Suspense

Beth Ciotta creates another edge of your seat romantic suspense novel! With a hero to die for, a heroine to root for, an exciting plot, fabulous romance and flashes of humor, you won't want ot put this book down once you start! I stayed up late to finish it! Ciotta is an author to watch!

FUN! FUN! FUN!

I couldn't wait for this book to come out. I have read everything written by Beth Ciotta and to me, she is an amazing writer. "Seduced" was everything I expected. It was fun,fast paced and sexy! You will fall in love with Sofia and Joe just like you fall in love with all of Ciotta's characters. One of the things I liked best about this book is that you get to take a peek at what all the characters we met previously are up to. I felt like I really knew these people and was glad that they were incorporated into this final book. Ciotta wrapped up all the storylines nicely. I'm kinda sad to see it end. On the upside, I am looking forward to seeing what's up Beth Ciotta's sleeve next. Whatever it is, I know that she will not disappoint. I would and do recommend "Seduced" and all of her other work to my fellow romance fans. FIVE STARS BETH. WAY TO GO!!!!

Sizzling action, sexy characters, sweet resolution

In this tightly crafted, suspenseful, but funny story, Ms. Ciotta brings us two remarkable leads who both tote emotional baggage along with their larger-than-life personalities. Actress Sofie Marino, who has fought for stardom as well as self-respect and close-to-burning-out FBI agent Joe Bogart might just earn their true love happy ending -- if they can stay alive and ahead of some hysterical hit men. The last book in a series (Jinxed, Charmed), Seduces also rewards readers with the final resolution of Rudy and Jean-Paul's relationship and treats us with a return visit by favorites Jake, Afia, Murphy and Lulu. I loved this book and the entire series and can't wait to read more by Ms. Ciotta.

A Wonderful Ending!! Well Done Beth!!!

We were fist introduced to Joe "Bogie" Bogart and Sofia Marino in "Charmed." These two wonderful characters now have their very own story and romance. This is also the last book in this series so all of the loose ends are tied up as well for Ms. Ciotta's faithful readers. Sofia Marino is the star of a hit television program called "Spy-Girl." Her real life though is about to resemble an episode from her television program in vivid Technicolor. This is a very bad thing considering the fact that she wakes up in a shed, with bloody cloths on and only a cell phone and gun in her possession. What makes this situation even worse is the fact that she has no memory regarding how she got there or more importantly why. Not knowing what else to do, she contacts her brother-in-law Murphy (Charmed) asking for help. Murphy is in no position to help her so he contacts his brother Joe to rescue the damsel in distress. Joe has not idea what he's going to do with the hoyden but once he sees her he knows his easy stress free life is about to become a lot more...complicated. He has had a thing for the fiery Sofia from the moment he first laid eyes on her. Now that she is with him he can longer fight the attraction. Oh... he tries mind you but the bigger they are, the harder they fall. Sofia can't believe that her brother-in-law could do this to her. Doesn't he know that the sexy ex-special agent Bogart is the one thing she knows she shouldn't even get close too? With just one kiss he managed to awaken her heart and she hasn't been the same since. Now as if things are not complicated enough in her life she has to trust him to help her solve the mystery of what happened to her and why. At the same time keep an arms distance...yeah, that's going to be easy. NOT! Will these two be able to unravel the mystery that's locked inside Sofia's head before the bad guy targets Sofia or her family? This was a fun fast read. Afia, Jake, Lulu, and Murphy, Rudy, and JP are all very important characters that fit in their very own secondary storyline. All of the loose ends between Rudy and JP are sorted out, and we get a glimpse of what their lives (the whole gang) are going to be like in the future. Sofia and Joe are wonderful romantic leads that truly complement each other. Their courtship is rather unique but than again so are they. I hated to see this series come to an end but Ms. Ciotta has done a wonderful job bringing it to a close. She has created very vivid and memorable characters that will stay with the reader long after the final page is read. For a book that deftly combines, romance, suspense, and humor look no further than an offering by Ms. Ciotta. You will be hard pressed to find a more talented author. I highly, highly recommend this read.

amusing romantic suspense

Male fan favorite Sofia Marino stars on the hit TV sitcom Spy Girl as heroine Cherry Onatop. However, the Hollywood star is stunned to wake up in the Arizona desert near Scottsdale with blood caked all over her body and no memory of the last few hours. She calls her sister Lulu at her sibling's Vermont B & B, but her brother-in-law Colin Murphy answers. He tells her to sit tight in the Camelback Inn in Scottsdale until help arrives. He sends his brother in arms Joe, a former FBI agent, whose last case left him burned out and distrustful of women. Joe arrives to assist a bewildered Sofia. Neither is aware that the James brothers, Frank and Jess, are searching for Sofia and that she is in the middle of a homicide. As Joe tries to keep her safe, Sofia, thinking as Cherry, decides to kick butt even as she falls in love with her champion. Though still hurting from the bad odor of his last official case, Joe finds his heart healing though palpitating at dangerous rates because he loves Sofia and fears for her wellbeing. SEDUCED is an amusing romantic suspense that returns Joe (who "introduced" Murphy to Lulu in CHARMED) and Sofia, but this time to the forefront. The story line is wacky as the audience along with the lead duet struggles to find out what is going on. Feeling JINXED, but also CHARMED by her protective hunk, Sofia's courage and fighting back SEDUCED the reluctant Joe into falling in love while risking his life to keep her safe. Beth Ciotta writes a jocular romantic romp that fans will enjoy laughing at the antics. Harriet Klausner
