I've read a stand alone of Helen's which I loved so I thought I'd start on her detective series. I did like it but I didn't love it. However, I liked I've read a stand alone of Helen's which I loved so I thought I'd start on her detective series. I did like it but I didn't love it. However, I liked it enough to keep going and try the next one. DI Callanach took a while to connect with (although that may have been intended) and I wasn't so keen on the murder angle but it's book 1 in a series and they never tend to blow me away. I have enough to want to keep going so onto the next one :)...more
This is an excellent romantic suspense novel and I couldn't put it down. I managed to read it in just one day.

Ellie feels she recognises new headmaster Harry Dixon and when she finally works it out she's stunned by who he really is and so was I! Harry though, thanks to a head injury can't remember Ellie at all. To make matters worse her violent ex-husband is released from prison. I loved how all three lives are interwoven and how the events play out.
Lots of twists, the characters are great and I enjoyed the romance angle as much as the action and suspense. It all comes together excellently at the end. I think I have a bit of a crush on Harry myself!
A brilliant debut. I have the next release The Truth Lies Buried and can't wait to read it.
