Better than most of the Nora Roberts I've tried lately. The relationship isn't fully plausible but it has its fun moments. A little angsty but Eve has some depth, even if its a bit stereotypical. Going from three stars to four because the mystery and the end explanation is clever. Full review soon.

Re-read with audio. I would still rate it a 3-3.5
Awesome!
I have been reluctant to start this series because of the number of books, but I should have known better! Set in a futuristic world with interesting electronic devices, it has a dark, compelling mystery and the beginning of a steamy romance between multilayered, well built characters.
I absolutely loved Roarke! He is intelligent, confident and considerate and knows what he wants and does his best to get it. The chemistry between him and Eve is palpable and I enjoyed every single one of t ...more

Murder mystery set in the future (2058). Once I got over the shock of a future world, the mystery and romance captivated me.
Reminds me of Rachel and Trent in Kim Harrison's The Hollows series, but without the magic, Eve Dallas is a tougher and smarter detective then Rachel is a witch, and Roarke is more sweet and sexy than Trent.
Likes:
* Beautiful and tough thirty something, Lt. Eve Dallas
* Eve's appreciation of coffee
* Mavis Freestone, Eve's one-time arrest turned friend

I have been meaning to start this series for a while now. I have read a few of Nora Roberts books in the past and had liked them, so chances were good that I was going to enjoy her writing under the name J.D Robb. And I was correct.
I mean whats not to like, we have a psychological thriller set in the future, yes there is "romantic" moments, well to be honest there was sex and the build up to potential romantic relationship. It's the year 2023, guns have been banned and are illegal, prostitution ...more

I don't know what took me so long to start this series, but I am not a huge fan. Yes, its true and only after reading the 1st book in the series.
Who in there right mind wouldn't want more Eve and Roarke.
She alone is so kickass and take no prisoner, that you can't help but to root for her and his definitely fits right in with her personality.
He doesn't judge her, he just accepts her for who she is and falls in love with her flaws and all.
On top of that it fun to see Eve or rather experience Ev ...more

This combination of police procedural/romance/SF book really sucked me in. I devoured the next two in this long-running series.
