DARK AND DEADLY by Jeanne Adams 2009, 340 pgs, Romantic Suspense
Rating 4/B -- Read June 09
1st Line: What do you mean we can't get married? Torie's words wers a panicked screech.
Despite this Not really being a WHO-done it but more of a how/when will the murderer be caught mixed w/ romance, I still found it a page-turner. Torie was left at the altar by her groom-to-be, his reason: he won the lottery and decided he had bigger/better things to do than get married. Torie, natu More...

2 ½ stars. Just ok. Easy to put down. Heroine is mostly a victim. She doesn’t do anything logical or smart to help herself.
STORY BRIEF:
Due to a conflict in college and miscommunication, Torie has not liked Paul for many years. Torie was later engaged to Paul’s best friend Todd. Todd broke the engagement when he won a multi-million-dollar lottery. Since then, whenever Torie dates someone, something bad happens to the guy. One guy was murdered, and others suffered propert More...

Dark and Deadly by Jeanne Adams – weak 3* - 2.19
I loved Dark and Dangerous by this author, so I was glad to pick this one up, but it was a disappointment. The love/hate/love relationship between Tori & Paul verged on the childish at times. Tori’s emotional growth seemed to be stuck at late-teen level, although what happened to her in college helps account for some of that. The stalker aspect – something happens to every man who gets close to Tori – was well done, and there were plent More...

Don't bother with this book - its fluff. The characters (Paul/Tori) are just silly. However don't discount this author from this book. Having read Deadly Little Secrets first I was anxious to read more from this author. Was shocked when I read Dark and Deadly. Maybe Jeanne Adams first book here was just that, a beginning. The next book Dark and Dangerous was very good, great plot and characters. It was almost like a different author than this book. By the time she wrote Deadly Little Secrets she

I had a hard time putting this down, I had to see what was going to happen next. I always love hunting for the clues and trying to figure out who the bad guy is, and this book gave me many opportunities!
It was a nice break from the paranormal I'm usually immersed in. May have to check out her first book.

I really liked this book. I bought it at a Goodwill and didn't really expect much, but I read this book in 24 hours. I really liked the lead male, Paul, alot. The romance was perfect, but the suspense was a little lacking. It was there, just more focused on the romance aspect I felt. It was still done pretty well though, with some interesting characters. I was hooked within the first few chapters, and just flew through this book!
