Hooked Till the End

Such a great easy read that was also full of suspense. The story had enough twists and elements along with the right dash of romance to get you hooked till the end. Unlike some romance-turned-thriller writers where you could tell deliberate effort was made to create the thrills, here the story was never awkward but flowed smoothly. I admired the writer's courage of giving the heroine a dead-end at the beginning of her investigation when she was fired by the hero. And, just when you were worried how the heroine could continue with the investigation, the writer effortlessly put the heroine back on the case.This was the 3rd Margaret Allison book or story that I read. The first one was Christmas Magic from an anthology. Though it was short, it was more than a romance and it won my tears reading the feelings the heroine had to her father. Now the writer did equally well in this suspense. Though the other book that I read, The Last Curve, was good, I hope her "Christmas Magic" and "Promise Me" set the benchmark for her future works. I am glad to have discovered this talented writer and will definitely seek out her books.

Just when it made you worry how she could move on to the case, the writer put the heroine back on so logically.This is the 3rd Margaret Allison book or story that I read. The first one was Christmas Magic from an anthology. It was a romance, but she won my tears when she wrote the feelings the heroine had for her dad. Now, she did equally well in this suspense. I find this writer talented and hope that her future works can keep up with Promise Me and Christmas Magic.

I Loved this book

This book was a very fast read, it kept me entertained throughout the entire book. The book was easy to follow because she only had a handful of characters. I felt like I was with Alex throughout the story. I've already read the Last Curve and loved it.

Wonderful!

"Promise Me" is the first book that I have read by Margaret Allison. It was a wonderful romantic/suspenseful story.

Great reading!

It's the kind of book you don't want to end but you can't wait to see what happens. It is a stand-out, and I read a lot of suspence/romance novels
