4/10 stars
This was a predictable crime legal book. It was like so many others I’ve read before. Nothing spectacular about it. There was just too much lust-enthused moments with tingling hands and quivering body parts.

The author did manage to surprise me however, by not having her 2 main characters jump into bed together. Sure they did everything but have sex on the journey. And I’m sure future volumes of this crime/romance series will explore more of these same "delicacies" and "delights" with greater detail than anyone of us should ever read, and so I plan to avoid future encounters. As it was, I found myself skimming through the gushing parts.

I did laugh out loud at one line: “Her ovaries responded with yum.” Wow! Yes, I guess my expectations were way TOO high with this one to expect less bodice-ripping and more crime solving. AHEM!

Two stars from me simply because she kept it “clean” albeit steamy.
