Dotti Root: Although I have had this book for almost two years, I have just started reading it today . . . and I am almost finished. It is just that riveting. As my parents grew up during this time period, my mother related that my father "delivered these illegal beverages" during this time period. AND, as I am reading the book, I read that Texas gripped prohibition with both hands and outdid the Federal government in tightening the screws on any would-be violators. AND, Texas is repeating history with regards to abortion rights. Whether you are pro- or anti-, this is historically significant. As prohibition ran itself down, so will abortion.

Michelle: Longtime SB fan and still consider her to be one of the best romance writer’s to date but I was hesitant to read this book because it takes place in the 1920’s during prohibition and bootlegging which didn’t seem that interesting but I’m glad I read it because the characters are strong and the time period’s intriguing depicting how hard times forced some to find creative ways to bypass the law to make money. I wouldn’t consider this one of her best books but it’s still an enjoyable read with good characters.

Narelle Meyer: This book has been on my TBR pile since its release, and I feel like hitting myself for not reading it earlier. This book has all the twists and turns. The romance wasn't forced. Overall, an excellent read.

Gandalf: Not as good as some of her others

Cathy P: I was hesitant to read this book, and it has sat in my TBR for months. I wish I had gotten to it sooner. It had plot twists, surprises along the way and was closer to the books I had come to love from this author. Laurel is our h and she has a rough go from the start. I really loved out H, Thatcher Hutton. I'm from TX and knew all the towns referenced and have lived in a couple. So that was cool to read about places I have been. The main town the book is set in, I'm pretty sure is fictitious. There used to he a Foley County, but it wasn't located where this book is set. I enjoyed the characters and storyline.
Standalone suspense romance, told from multiple POV. We get a HFN with the Laurel and Thatcher as well as other couples in the book. Definitely recommend.

Amazon Customer: I have read 3 now, I think, of Sandra Brown's books. I tend to pick one up if I have one to read in between more serious reading, as let's face it, they are more Harlequin Romance than anything. This one intrigued me because of its setting in the 20's (I do like history). I am plowing my way through it and may or may not finish it, but I couldn't possibly recommend it to anyone....it's really ridiculously silly, and stultifyingly boring for the most part. The mystery aspect of her books, which I generally enjoy, is missing in this one and I think that's why I'm finding it a tough go. I'd advise giving it a pass.

Vickie Watts: Set during the Prohibition Era, this book is the story of a widow named Laurel and her ties to the bootlegging industry as well as her attraction to a deputy sheriff named Thatcher. The two attract and repel and their interactions made the story a romance as well as an adventure. There were some real scoundrels in the tale and I was glad to read about them getting what was coming to them. My favorite character was Laurel because she was a strong female protagonist with a backbone and a will to survive in spite of all the bad hands that life had dealt her. I also liked Irv, her father-in-law, who was a ne’er-do-well determined to help his daughter-in-law thrive in a harsh environment. Finally, I enjoyed the character of Corinne, a young woman who didn’t know how to read but who had more common sense than a lot of people who did. This is a book that is part adventure, part romance and all entertainment.
I checked out a copy of this book from my local library using the Libby App. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Primavera: Brilliant
Raw
Heart wrenching

Beautiful main y second characters
Dont want to give a lot of spoilers, give it a chance, one of her best books (later books i mean).
There are some sick characters as well, very detailed crime scenes, on page there are ... lot. It was sick. Didnt like that, thats why minus one star.
Perfect writing, a bit slow (a bit, i didnt want to put it down) on first half, but gripping, and engrossing from 50%.
Strong heroine, she wasnt some “poor young widow”. Wow, she’s got some steel, all right. She was pushing him away but he was after her from first sight.
And so tender and strong hero, WOWOWOWO, love him!
Safe story.
