Customer Reviews

I really like this author

The hideaway is just another great read from Meryl Sawyer. It is filled with suspense, lots of sex, compassion, untold secrets, murder, greed, and so much more. It is a good light hearted read. Even the identity of the killer is a surprise and that is rare to find in murder mysteries. In my book, if an author can surprise me, she deserves 5 stars. Meryl Sawyer definitely has a way of making the reader connect with her characters. You'll find yourself remembering them long after the book has gone back on the shelf.

A great story

I picked up this book because I first read Tempting Fate which I might add is a must read. If I like a book then I continue to read more from same author... I was not disappointed. Zach is a little cocky but he needed to be with Claire. I enjoyed how he tried to protect her even when she wouldn't be seen with him. By the way, I didn't know that animals can be treated as badly as some mentioned in this book. That breaks my heart and only hope this is not real, I love animals. Claire's love for animals grabbed my heart and Zach's love for Claire grabbed my throat. I am glad everyone in this story got their just desserts. I definitely recommend this one.

Passionate! Heart-Stopping suspense and romance!

This was the book that made me fall in love with Meryl Sawyer's writting! These characters were so wonderful and fascinating. I couldn't put this book down until I finished it. I have recommended it to so many people and they all say the same thing. "Wow, what a great book. Do you have any others by this author?" I have read three others and I recommend all of them. (Tempting Fate, Half Moon Bay, Last Night) I can't wait to read her others and I hope to be reading many new ones in the future.

Excellent, a wonderful story with a captivating setting

Kelly Taylor ldiscovers she has been linked to a murder and the only man who can help her is the sheriff. He was once her boyfriend and the town bad boy, but now he's wearing a badge. They were once lovers, but are now enemies who have to work together to slove the crime As the story unfolds, a cast of wonderful, well-developed charaters emerges, including a sexy, mysterious man who just might be the killer--or give her an alibi. We discover Kelly can't remember the night of the murder or clear her name because someone slipped Rolhypnol (the date rape drug) into her drink. This story has a red herring villain who is so bad that you love to hate him and all the plot twists Meryl is known for. You're going to love this book.

Unforgettable characters, an unforgettable romance!

Meryl Sawyer writes characters and life people can relate to. I couldn't put Hideaway down. Her suspense was superb. A page turner! I wasn't sure I'd like the female lead character, at first, but Meryl didn't disappoint me; I soon related to her and couldn't wait to watch her change into the woman I knew Meryl intended. Zach, the hero, is to die for. Whew! I'm in love with that man.
