Jose Carrillo _8_raphics — Guys in the 18th C. wrote in dense prose

Gina Rego ginarego0ffb — One of my favorite books ever. I can't even put my finger on why it's so great, it just is. It's earthy and delicious and magical.

Gao Zoe zoe_gao — Great fun to read and who doesn't love Hercule Poirot? I'm hooked...

Ion Andrei _artist — ** spoiler alert ** Another Law firm book from Ms James. Cameron Lynde, assistant DA, needs some R & R to recuperate from her busy life. Checking into a hotel, she settles down to a night of peace and quiet. Unfortunately, this is not meant to be and she unwittingly becomes a witness to a murder in which a top senator is the prime suspect. In enters Agent Jack Pallas. The last time Agent Pallas saw Cameron she was walking out of the office he walked into just before he was transferred. He blames her for dropping the case that he spent 6 months gathering evidence for and, ultimately, his transfer to Alaska. The last thing he expects is to end up babysitting her because she is the only witness to a murder that could bring down a top US official. Cameron is not happy to be spending so much close contact with the man who publicly proclaimed that she “had her head up her ass”. Hot he may be, but the man irritates her with every word he utters. However, with all that close contact, will either of them be able to keep the brewing sexual tension at bay? Another winner for me here In the Julie James stakes! This is much more along the Romantic Suspense lines than the others and it worked really well. The dislike between the two characters is well thought out and believable; it stands to reason that, no matter how misguided the reasoning, they wouldn’t want to be in the same room as each other. Cameron is a completely different creature to the woman that dealt with Jack the first time around. She’s tough, independent and fights for what she believes in. She isn’t stupid with the way she deals with the situation; she knows that she isn’t the expert in this situation, so is happy to let the Police take the lead. I found her utterly refreshing because she wasn’t stupid enough to think she knew best. Jack is a stubborn, snarky SOB, but man is he hot! He hates Cameron, but he can’t fight his attraction to her. Not once, does he let his personal feelings interfere with his role of protecting her and I utterly respected the professional behaviour of both characters. It made me believe in them a little more, and I found I waited with baited breath to see if the situation could be resolved to allow them to get together. I also loved the fact that Jack’s partner took such great delight in pointing out that Jacks snarkiness was partly because he was very attracted to woman; that kind of bromance type behaviour is guaranteed to keep me reading! The side story was well fleshed out and helped the relationship develop. The basic premise was that people were after killing Cameron because she was a witness to the crime. These people were incredibly clever, therefore there was more than a few sticky situations for her to get out of. I liked that there was no “man must be saviour” cave-man like attitude. She had an equal role in protecting herself. The side characters were good and I’m looking forward to seeing what becomes of Wilkes. The sex scenes were OK. There wasn’t a great amount of detail but to be honest that wouldn’t have fit with the style of the book. A fab read which has put Julie James on my auto buy list
