Great Characters -- Unusual Setting -- Wonderful Reading

What a wonderful read!! Ian Stearn is a hero anyone would want in her backyard -- this particular backyard is Alaska and a great, unusual setting for an SIM. Rosie is definitely the woman for Ian.Sharon Mignerey is such a great writer. Easy to read, but hard to skip any piece of information she shoots your way. The blending of background, heritage and gut-wrenching emotion is perfect.Don't miss any of her books.

A great book to curl up with!

If you like romances where no on is quite what they appear to be, not even the secondary characters, then this book is for you. It has it all: a hero with a shady past; a heroine who has the strength to endure a heart-wrenching sacrifice that most women would not be able to face, let alone carry through with.Action. Adventure. Betrayal. Danger. Sensual love scenes that will leave the reader sighing with emotion.The final chapters alone are worth the price. The frustrating yet all too realistic circumstances that keep Rosie and Ian apart, just when the bad guys are closing in, will have the reader itching to skip ahead to find out how it all ends. The tension is exquisite. The growing yet hesitant love for each other true to life.As an added bonus, Mignerey provides just enough description of Alaska's Inward Passage that the weather and each locale become integral elements of the story. She makes it easy for the reader to imagine what it's like to take to the sea, to explore an uninhabited rain-swept island, to be pursued through a night-darkened forest, and to search the streets of Juneau for the one person you can no longer live without.This is Sharon Mignerey at her best.

Intriguing, Heart skipping, and Page-turning!

Wow! Sharon Mignerey is a master storyteller. From the very first page, she had me wondering and asking "What's going to happen next?" Rosie Jensen and Ian Stearne are beautifully motivated and well drawn characters that you can't help but cheer for, and little Annemarie is so adorable. The inside passageway of Alaska is the setting for this page-turning romantic suspense and the author had me believing I was right there. Sharon Mignerey is definately on my list of must read authors. I can't wait to pick up her next project!If you haven't bought this book, do so now! You won't be disappointed.

ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT ROMANTIC SUSPENSE

Too Close for Comfort keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end. The story is incredible and the characters....well, who wouldn't want to meet a hero like Ian Stearne? Fantastic book.

Winner of the WordWeaving Award of Excellence

A late night call reporting a lost child sends Rosie Jensen and her companion Sly into the night searching. For two years she and Sly, a cross between a Basset hound and Border collie, have worked search-and-rescue. The darkness lends an aura of mystery, reminding her of the tingling sensation the day before when she felt someone watching.Rosie finds a man who's been gunshot and the missing child, Annmarie. As the past comes rushing back, Rosie must protect this beloved child from an incredibly dangerous situation. The child's mother Lily witnessed a murder linked to the mob, and they will stop at nothing to prevent her from testifying. Lily had been adamant that her sister Rosie would keep Annmarie safe. Lily's neighbor and friend Ian Stearne was bringing Annmarie to Rosie at Kantrovich Island, Alaska when he realized they were being followed. Now both Rosie and Ian must work together so they all can all stay alive until the Lily testifies.Ian's past haunts him. He can't forget the night he got one of his brothers killed. Fifteen years of hell and he's still not welcome in his mother's home. And now something about Rosie, with her delicate floral tattoo wrapped around her wrist, brings back old memories in only a few minutes. But she also brings healing, and acceptance, even in the midst of terrible danger. As he learns her painful secrets, his loving acceptance extends healing to Rosie as well. Together Ian and Rosie find love in the midst of danger, joy in the midst of fear.Award winning author Sharon Mignerey once again demonstrates her superb talent in her newest thriller, TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT. Memorable characters, unusual background, and a tightly knit plot provide excellent entertainment. I confess to liking characters that present themselves as ordinary people -- yes, Ian's wealthy, but because he bought a winning lottery ticket not because he inherited family money. And he has a wicked past, running with gangs as a teen. Rosie's secrets likewise make her sympathetic and all that much more human. Her power and strength, despite her vulnerabilities, touched my emotions deeply. Further, I couldn't help feeling that these two deserve happiness, as does the remarkable child they protect. Even the dog Sly, short for Sly Devious Beast, is a lot of fun! Very highly recommended.
