Raves for Reckless

I thoroughly enjoyed the book.It was hard to put down. This first book of the triology will definitely have you waiting for the next book to come out.

Another Thrilling Tale of Romance and Danger

Selena Montgomery tantalizes her readers with yet another thrilling tale of romance and danger intertwined. I read this book in less than one day. Lawyer Kell and the Sheriff Luke are well-developed characters with interesting roles and hot romance in a book that is a great read in itself. I can't wait until the next installment of the goings on in this small Georgia town.

Fantastic! Keeps you reading

Selena Montgomery has done it again! Her ability to cross genres and to skillfully weave together plot elements reminds me of why "Secrets & Lies" and "Never Tell" are two of my favorite books. In "Reckless" we meet the first of three heroines who are tied to a dark secret that could ruin their lives. Kell Jameson is an attorney who must defend her Eliza Faraday, accused of a drug dealer's murder. But the murder may have more to do with Kell's past, and she has to save Mrs. F while protecting herself from the investigation. Part crime solver, part legal thriller - this book is all suspense. Can't wait for book 2!

Reckless

Great book, could not put it down for long. I'm anxiously awaiting the books (stories) to follow.

action-packed romantic suspense thriller

Atlanta attorney Kell Jameson left her hometown Hallden and the orphanage she grew up in behind; vowing never to return. However, the only person she would go back to help needs her and she is summoned back to her hometown after years of running away since the fiery incident back in 1991 broke up the Three Musketeers (Kell, Fin and Julia). Mrs. Faraday, the kind head of the orphanage where she lived, is accused of murder. Sheriff Luke Calder investigates the homicide of a local drug dealer. He stops Kell for a traffic violation, but she flees the scene. Luke follows Kell to the diner where he hands her the tickets and asks her out. As they work the case and related matters, they fall in love. However besides the commute, Kell fears telling him the truth because she needs to protect Fin Borders and Julia Warner and believes he will not just reject her when he learns her darkest secrets from 1991 he will expose them. RECKLESS is an action-packed romantic suspense thriller that sets the tone of the story line with its 1991 prologue and never slows down afterward. The cast is strong as it brings to life small town Georgia even some players from the past and from beyond. However, the tale is owned by the feisty courageous yet vulnerable heroine who finds love with the one person who can destroy her. Selena Montgomery allows her recovery specialists to rest (see SECRETS AND LIES, and HIDDEN SINS) with an entertaining regional thriller. Harriet Klausner
