Exciting book

Even though this is the third book in the series, it was the first one that I read. I thought it was wonderful and addictive and as a result I have purchased every book in the series thus far and have read them several times. The mystery is good and the love triange relationship is sooo interesting. A very pleasant way to spend an afternoon.

Great mystery/romance series, gets better from book to book!

I really love the "Deadly" series, and I just finished this one. I can`t wait to read "Deadly Desire" to see how the love story continues! Maybe I am wrong, but in the end I think Calder Hart will marry Francesca, for I think he is the better man for her. He is really exciting and sexy, the "more than meets the eye" type. For my taste, Rick is far too good and moral (but maybe he isn`t and is also responsible for the failure of his marriage?). I am looking forward for all the next books and would love if someone would like to mail me to share one`s opinion about the books! deborah.hof@gmx.de

This is the best so far....

Joyce has found her footing and the series has really taken off. Excellent read!

Great Page Turner

I have read all three of the Cahill mystery books and can't waitfor the 4th in May. This one was the best so far. The characters are just wonderful and so fully developed. I want Fran and Bragg to get together so much - yet I am intrigued bythe interest that Bragg's brother Hart shows in Fran. Start with the first book and work your way up to Deadly Affairs.This is a great mystery, romance series.

The Whole Shebang---Murder + Mystery + Romance

Brenda Joyce delivers an exciting, plot twisting addition to her Francesca Cahill Series. A rich young woman living in turn-of-the-century New York Francesca could be content with high society---balls, dresses and men. Instead she squeezes in the occasional society happening with her new career as an amateur sleuth, family problems, and college classes.In Deadly Affairs Francesca's sleuthing hits home in more ways than one as her hoodlum/sleuthing assistant's mother becomes a target. Working again with the City's Police Commissioner Rick Bragg, Francesca's stalks the killers.In this third installment, Francesca's personal life is more developed. The reader finds that Calder Hart, Bragg's entreupreneur and estranged half-brother, desires at least friendship with Francesca. Unfortunately, Francesca's mother sees the answer to the "Francesca solving crimes" problem as a marriage to Calder Hart!Francesca continues to delight readers as a moral, committed, and occasionally meddling twenty-year old finding that life and sleuthing have several more experiences in store for her.
