An interesting twist from her newer novels (where I started). I can see the framework of her newer novels through this work. What I did love was the expanded romance section, which did not ever detract from the suspense and drama of the novel. A great read!

Having read this first, then "Fever", then coming back to this one - the complex intricacy of the two novels combining for one longer story is great! Although separate in their plots, the framework is the same (think different rooms in the same house....). Well worth getting the set!

Quick read but enjoyed

I love this book, except for the whole tracing-the-orchid scene, which I just skip now on a reread. Put two people who hate each other in one car and get them soaked through with rain every once in a while. Definitely a 10 on the sexual tension scale.

The 2nd and last book of the McCalls. The first was Fever which told the story of Rye. This book features Cynthia who like her brother is constantly being set up with men by her father who wants to ensure a dynasty. After his many manipulations does not lead his daughter to the alter, McCall Sr. realizes there does not have to be a marriage for Cynthia to give him grandchildren!
