THE MAN WAS HARD TO RESIST... Aidan Brodie's sensual stare could seduce a woman almost against her will. Samantha Giancarlo found herself to be no exception. Her reporter's instincts screamed at her to stay far away. But fate--in the form of a woman in black--had united them for a reason.... An explosive interview with the stranger thrust Sam into the thick of a murder investigation. And when her search revealed truths that struck too close to home, she was forced to heed other, more womanly instincts.... She had no choice but to accept the safety of Aidan's strong embrace--and the protection he was only too eager to provide. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Back in the 1940's Margaret had a film rival (Mary Lamont) who was deeply jealous of her and always held a grudge against her. Throughout the years Mary was institutionalized for her apparent insanity. Now, in 1996, Mary has escaped and is out looking for Margaret. Margaret is worried about her safety and the safety of Sam, her only living relative/descendant.
Sam goes to Oakhaven Sanitorium where Mary had been staying before she escaped. She talks to the head of the sanitorium, and also meets handsome hero, Aidan Brodie, (who is in his late 30's and is an insurance investigator). After an attempt is made on their lives they both team up to try to find out where Mary is, and if Mary is receiving any outside help.
I liked Sam, she was a good heroine. I also liked Aiden. He had some Irish ancestry, his family moved from Dublin to Boston when he was thirteen. The supporting cast of characters/suspects were lively and interesting. I also liked all the references to the 40's and 50's---movies, stars, etc...
I did enjoy this book, but it didn't grab my attention as much as the other Jenna Ryan books I've read. Maybe it was my mood? It seemed slow at times, but it sure wasn't bad. An okay read. ( )
