Lindsey, a lawyer, returns to New York for years after a hasty departure, following the dismal failure of an affair she was defending. Cancer of her father forced her to resume service and current affairs, which also involves convince Mark Reeves, a former associate, to return to the office to direct it. Their encounter makes sparks and quickly takes a passionate turn, even though the investigation they are conducting is precise: all victims are blond and very similar with Lindsey.
A fan of romantic suspense, we will say that it is fun to read, but to me it may takes longer to a POI decorated with a touch of suspense. The survey is present, but secondary. Besides solving the "mystery" is very fast, and lacks some development. In short, it is clearly not the important point of romance ...
Emphasis is placed here on the relationship that is built between Mark and Lindsey relationship that starts elsewhere very quickly. Passion flares from their first meeting and is reflected very quickly. So what gives rise to many sensual scenes seen the romance format.
Lindsey is an interesting character. Traumatized by the failure of his last affair in New York, she is unsure of herself as a lawyer. But this lack of confidence is also reflected in her relationship with Mark. She has a certain fragility that is touching. His only trait that crazy about me is the fact that it must necessarily say no to everything Mark moved, and even when she is in danger.
Mark is a man with a capital H: sexy, authoritative without being overbearing, caring, protective and possessive ... He quickly knows what he wants is Lindsey, and therefore do everything to have it!
It is nice to read a volume, very forward chemistry between Mark and Lindsey, then their relationship. So if you are looking for a true romantic-suspense it may disappoint you a little bit. But otherwise, as a romance, he fulfills his contract.
This prequel lays the foundation for a series that gives hope of good plots and I hope that will be translated soon!
