It Was One For The Books...
Sgt. James "Slade" Sladerman had practically been born to the force, but he wanted to be a writer, not a cop. No one was more different from him than Jessica Winslow, who was wealthy and working only because she wanted to.
He felt the gap between them keenly, and almost refused to be her undercover bodyguard. But someone had to watch her and he'd...more

He had a face any female would respond to--a bit narrow, angular, with dark coloring that came from Italian ancestors on his mother's side. The mouth had been hard in repose, but now, curved, it showed both promise and passion. Black hair and gray eyes were an irresistible combination, especially, when the hair was thick and a bit unruly and the eyes were smoky and mysterious. He was an interesting prospect…

IT WAS ONE FOR THE BOOKS... Sgt. James "Slade" Sladerman had practically been born to the force, but he wanted to be a writer, not a cop. No one was more different from him than Jessica Window, who was wealthy and working only because she wanted to. He felt the gap between them keenly, and almost refused to be her undercover bodyguard. But someone had to watch her and he'd given his word--regardless of her innocence or guilt. Slade couldn't afford to care, but in the shadow of danger, in the arm...more

Apesar de interessante e relativamente intrigante, este romance tem um desenvolvimento pobre, com muito pouca pesquisa envolvida.
Sem a qualidade habitual dos livros de Nora Roberts e com pouco conteúdo, esta leitura compensa apenas pelo formidável estilo de escrita da autora.

No doubt this was the story by Nora Roberts that I most enjoyed so far, even though the romance continues to seem forced as in the other books I had the opportunity to read.
The ingredients are almost the same, a writer is looking for inspiration to finish his/her literary work (although in this book the writer is also a policeman), so he/she moves into the home of a member of the opposite sex to whom he/she feels attracted to. He/she fights against it, but the other character isn't indifferent t...more

Que dizer de Nora Roberts... outra vez? Nada de original, pois todos os adjectivos positivos e elogiadores já foram usados para descrever as suas obras.
Neste pequeno conto, mas que serviu para matar saudades da sua escrita e criatividade, Nora enlaça-nos e puxa-nos para uma história repleta de paixão e suspense.
Como sempre, a escritora gosta de nos deixar na dúvida até ao final, o que faz com que devoremos o texto até à última página.

My weekend of reading is over, I enjoyed the kids at grandma and the quiet that allowed me to read all weekend, I love happily ever after and I love a strong women and a man that reach out to each other. I enjoyed the books and I love a quit easy romance.
Apesar de ser uma história pequena, não fica atrás de muitas outras desta autora, com dose certa de romance. Gostei muito.
Foi a primeira vez que li algo de Nora Roberts e confesso que fiquei agradavelmente surpresa.
Um livro curtinho mas que nos prende rapidamente, transportando-nos sem demoras para o mundo criado pela autora, brindando-nos com uma leitura leve e fluída do inicio ao fim.
Gostei bastante.

Another that I started years ago and finally picked up to reread and finish. Nothing spectacular but not a bad story.
detective romance..as ussual.
so easy to guess the plot...
but not bad for light reading anyway

somewhat more savage (in a firey passion bordering-on-abuse sense) than the average Roberts book.
Love Nora Roberts and all of her books they are fast, easy, fun romances.
Fotocópia do romance "Uma última Noite". Definitivamente NÃO GOSTO.
Loved the characters!
Very tv movie-esque.
I would be quite happy and content if I could say that I don't like Nora Roberts, but that's just not the case. I really like her, fast injection of good romance. And to be honest - I’m a junkie.
É giro, mas sabe a pouco. Um livro deveras pequeno.
