Beauty and the Beast

I loved this story. This story is about a beautiful and feisty PR rep. named Lana. She is the daughter of an art thief. A P.I. named Justin is assigned to protect her from someone who wants to get back at her father by hurting her. He offers her help and protection and she says no thanks! , and kicks his butt. From the moment she meets Justin she is instantly attracted to him. The only problem is that Justin's face is disfigured. Surprisingly, this fact is more of a problem for Justin than Lana. When cut off from the outside world passion erupts and love is found. Mrs. Sneed is a wonderful writer she, makes you laugh and sympathize with the characters. She always gives her readers heat, humor, and romance.

To catch a thief...

Frank Hargrove, a world-renowned art thief, has eluded capture for many years. When he meets Justin Larkin, he feels that he has met a partner in crime. Not only does he believe Justin is a fellow thief and someone who will help him pull off the greatest heist of his career, Frank trusts Justin so much that he sends him to warn his daughter of the danger he believes is following both of them. Little does Frank know, but Justin is actually a private investigator whose mission is to capture Frank and finally bring him to justice. When Justin meets Lana, Frank's daughter, he is floored, literally. After he delivers Frank's message, Lana is highly skeptical, and with good reason; she hasn't seen or heard from her father in over 20 years. But when things start to happen to her, Lana quickly becomes convinced that her life really is in danger. On the run for her life, Lana is forced to hide out with Justin in a secluded cabin in the middle of nowhere. Although they fight it at first, their close quarters spark an immediate attraction and a passionate love affair ensues. When Lana, who has an issue with trusting men, finds out the real reason for Justin being in her life, will that ruin her chance at finally experiencing true love? ALL THE MAN I NEED is Tamara Sneed's latest literary endeavor, and as with her previous works, she did not disappoint. Packed with steamy love scenes, danger, humor and intrigue, fans new and old are sure to enjoy. Kudos Ms. Sneed for another sure-fire winner. Reviewed by Renee Williams of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers

A great read!

Tamara Sneed has written another novel that is funny and sexy and full of suspense. All the Man I Need takes risks in presenting a hero with a physical flaw. But it is worth the risk. You will fall in-love with this man. He exudes heat and the right amount of care and tenderness. If you like novels that make you care about the leads and novels that pull you in so much that you can not put the book down and want to re-read it just to have the experience again, then this is a book for you.

engaging romantic suspense

In Georgetown, public relations guru and social climber Lana Hargrove notices the man following her; since she took a self defense course, a confident Lana confronts the stud demanding he explains why he follows her. Justin Larkin tells her he is an art thief like her father who hired him to keep her safe. Lana rejects his rationale because her father Frank deserted her twenty years ago when she was just a child. When someone tries to kill Lana, she realizes that Justin is telling her the truth. They flee the DC area. As the duo hide together, Lana and Justin fall in love. However, he knows that when she learns the truth that he is a partner in Baxter & Baxter Investigations using her to catch Frank, who stole an obelisk from a museum, Justin expects their relationship to end. ALL THE MAN I NEED is an engaging romantic suspense tale that readers will enjoy due to the warm fully developed lead couple and her father who is a suave yet lonely felon. The story line obviously focuses on Justin's growing dilemma between his love of Lana and his honor to catch her father the thief. Readers know they can always count on Tamara Sneed for a strong entertaining read, as this fine tale bears out that truism. Harriet Klausner
