A Tale of True Love

This is a great book. It's a story of love gone wrong and true love that waits. It is also a story of the uncoditional love of a parent and proves that no matter what, there is always someone out there who your actions will affect. There is also no such thing as a perfect lie. All lies come out in the wash.Ms. McCall does a marvelous job with this novel. She captures and discribes emotions that most of us wouldn't know how to put into words. She spins a captivating tale that you will not be able to walk away from. Don't start this book late at night because if you are like me you will be in for the duration. Enjoy! I know I did.

The Perfect Lie

Now, after a successful drug raid in South America, he learns that his exwife has been brutally murdered, and the child he thought dead kidnapped by an enemy who wants revenge on Slade for killing his son. Her sister, Macie, who was just a child when he last knew her, has grown up into a stronger woman than Felicity ever was, and is demanding that he help her find his son.As they work together to rescue the boy before vengeance is taken on him, Slade begins to wonder if he should have waited for the baby sister to grow up, for Macie is much more than Felicity ever could have hoped to be. Dangers all around them drive the couple together as this action packed, exciting romance races to its thrilling and touching conclusion.***** Under any name, this author is guaranteed to give her readers an exciting story, heady romance, and a touching plot that will warm your heart. Slade is the older man that most of us dream about finding, not too old, but like fine wine, aged to perfection. His son looks to be someone who might grow up to be just like dad, so if the author reads this, please take the hint for a sequel. *****

Fantastic Read

I started this book in the early evening and stayed up until 3:00 am until I finished it. It has been a long time since a book kept me so captivated. The story line has already been reviewed so all I can say is that I loved it enough to give it a 5 star rating and it will go on my keeper shelf. I have read some others by this author and was not impressed but this one had characters that were realistic and the story was great and stayed with me for days after I read it.

The Perfect Read

A book that is shocking, thrilling and spell binding. I loved this one. Not often anymore can I read a book that holds my attention the way this one did. I just couldn't put it down. If you like Suzanne Brockmann's seal team books, well you are going to love Dinah McCalls The Perfect Lie. It is on that level, with action, suspense and romance all rolled into one, I wish they had more books like this out there.
