Latest Read: Drop Dead Gorgeous by Linda Howard

This novel is a sequel to To Die For and Wyatt is still Wyatt. Sexy and completely compelling. Blair, whose character is addictive, returns and is planning a wedding with the sexy cop. Of course, mayhem ensues.

 

She has a hit and run as well as a fire that was nicely written. The sexual tension and bits of humor between Wyatt and Blair keep the book at a good pace. This wedding thing is getting boring however. There are pages of wedding stuff and the author seemed to give Blair a very girly and weak persona in those areas. I liked how she was portrayed in the first novel better. In addition, I’ve never heard of SDS. SDS is the Sperm Delivery System, in other words, his dick. Very creative.  

 

The ending was good; no one could have guessed the attempted killer because she wasn’t mentioned until the last few pages. The realization from the photo of who her stalker was was a nice touch.

 

I skipped the wedding scene, those bore me to death. There is a scene afterward that is a smile and a half. Although she didn’t include her usually great sex scenes, this novel was good, not her best but certainly worth the read.

 

 

5/10
