This was so much fun. I am really enjoying this author's foray into 1930s California/Hollywood.
We have another gal looking to start a new chapter in her life, a rumored haunted house, a murderous robot and cutting edge espionage equipment. Oh yeah, and a good romance too.
I will say that one of the baddies took me by surprise. I was so caught up in the double-crosses and triple crosses that I wasn't really keeping track of all the clues. It also looks like we may have a direct sequel coming up as several important threads were left dangling at the end.
Long time readers will probably be amused with the hero's family history. I know I was. Very cleverly done.
I am looking forward to my next visit to Burning Cove.

Liz Mc2 I haven’t read her in a while, but I was eyeing this at the library. Perhaps I’ll try this series.


Barb in Maryland This is a fun series--a nice bit of romantic suspense in an interesting setting.
I will confess to being a life-long JAK fan-girl. I have been reading her since her category romance days way back in the late '70s. So I may be a bit biased. I'll keep reading her stuff as long as it keeps me entertained.
