The perfect balance of suspense mixed with romance, just the right amount of fast-paced action, a heroine that most women can identify with, a gorgeous, believable hero, beautiful landscapes – and to have it all superbly written in a way that makes the reader feel like she’s right there. What more can a girl want? More, that’s what! I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the next from Alexa Bourne!
