message 14: by Bryan R. (new)

Bryan R. (bryanradams) | 124 comments It was good, but I was expecting something along the lines of his other books, like Killing Johnny Fry or Diablerie. Those were steamy.


message 15: by Natasha (new)

Natasha (ahsatan82) | 288 comments I haven't read any by him, maybe one a long time ago (I can't recall). But this one sounded like I might enjoy. I'll have to look up those ones you just mentioned though lol, thanks!

message 21: by Bryan R. (new)

Bryan R. (bryanradams) | 124 comments I had to change my letter E book for something less than 400 pages, so I'm dealing with The Ex-Wife by Candice Dow. A lot of folks on this board seemed to like it, so I jumped on it.
