When his “neighbors” intrude it could be a way out for her, but Emory quickly realizes these neighbors are the kind only a man like her rescuer can deal with – efficiently and effectively.Īfter days in his company, she now knows he’s a good man, despite his mysterious ways and silence. The man is a contradiction between word and deed, and he begins to fascinate – and arouse – her with little effort. Wary and cautious, though he promises to return her to civilization after the bad weather clears, she tries at every opportunity to escape her captivity. Awaking in an unknown cabin hidden deep in the mountains and woods, Emory is faced with a man so mysterious he won’t even give her his name. Taking a weekend from the clinic and her husband – after another heated argument – Emory heads to mountainous terrain to try out a few trails that should help in her mission.īut things go horribly wrong. Her upcoming marathon is one she’s spearheaded, so she’s determined to be in even better condition so there’s no question she’ll finish the race.

She also loves marathons and keeps herself in tip-top shape with plenty of practice. And, believe me, there are several eyebrow-raising twists in this story.Įmory Charbonneau is a pediatrician with partners in a thriving clinic. They go right along with the characters as the story progresses, never seeing the twists and turns coming. Not only for her characters, but for the readers too. Now with this latest from Sandra Brown, I’ve vowed the same with her future stories. I learned a couple of years ago that I’m not letting a Nora book get by me anymore. With so many books, even my favorites sometimes get lost in the shuffle. I used to read her all the time, as I did Nora Roberts.

It’s been a while since I’ve read Sandra Brown, and I’m not going to let it be so long before I dig into the next book. Romantic Suspense published by Hodder & Stoughton 19 Aug 14 Sandy M’s review of Mean Streakby Sandra Brown
