Customer Reviews

I think it should be a movie! :-)

If True Lies was doable as a movie(which I loved, by the way) and Mr. and Mrs. Smith was a doable movie, then this book could be a great movie too. I loved it. It was funny, smart, cute and yes a little too unbelievable but that is what makes it a good book. I read to get away from the believable. Tallie was my favorite, then Felicia. Most of the charactors were three D... There were a few in the back ground like in any book. I hated when I knew the ending was near because I didn't want it to end. If you want believable, get NON-fiction!!

Creative twist to the story

This is my first Stephanie Bond book and I'm sure won't be my last. It's a cute mystery with some romance thrown in. Three women, a cute cop, and a missing manuscript... all make a good fun read.

GREAT story with lots of action.

I really loved the two main characters for this book. I was sad to put it down. It really flew along and had a wonderful suspenseful storyline. I immediately began looking for more books by Stephanie Bond since this was the first one I read. I hope they are all as wonderful as this one.

delightful police procedural romance

In Manhattan, Parkbench Publishing Editor Tallie Blankenship has spent nine years at the company that releases romance and mystery novels. When her boss Ron Springer tells her he has to leave town, he also assigns her with handling their top selling writer Gaylord Cooper. At the same time her nutty domestic engineer extraordinaire mom asks her to meet her best friend's son Keith Wages, who turns out to be a cop living in a house in Brooklyn. Keith saves her life when a robber begins shooting at a restaurant where they meet for the first time. Keith likes Tallie and wants to see her, but she is reluctant because she is the polar opposite of her mother as undomesticated as they come. Still, as he investigates a murder of a cohort they fall in love, but will Tallie see he wants her just the way she is. This is a delightful police procedural romance with two wonderful tales of love (Tallie's best friend and mentor, a closet domesticate and a biking messenger besides the obvious lead couple). The story line focuses more on relationships especially between Tallie and Keith rather than the investigation though the latter enhances the fine warm tale of an odd couple falling in love.
