Entertaining plot,,
By Sandra (Avid reader) - See all my reviews
This review is from: High Stakes (Paperback)
High Stakes is a fun story with engaging characters I easily connect with. I, also, enjoy the humor intended in the plot. Nice job!

Nice change,
By Butterscotch (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: High Stakes (Paperback)
This was a good book, and a nice change from what I usually read - Nora Roberts. I almost gave up on this book because it started slow I thought - the reason for all the running around took a bit too long to unfold. The writing was very funny in many areas, and that was great. This was my first Justine Dare book, but I will definitely look for more.

A Great New Find,
By Kathryn J. Lizee (Berea, KY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: High Stakes (Paperback)
This is the first book by Justine Dare I've read.It won't be the last. The premise is interesting and nothing you've seen too often before. Shelby has been in the wrong place at the wrong time and is now on the run, (and this is not the first time she's been a runaway either.) She ducks into a casino in a small town near Vegas, and just when she feels her luck has run out and the person after her might catch her, she gets a big run of good luck in the form of hitting a $25,000 jackpot at the slots. She is wary of the attention, afraid it will draw the person after her right to her, so she dashes off. Aaron Montana, the owner and head of security at the casino, sees this and all of his "Save the Whale" instincts rise to the surface. Aaron has a penchant for saving wounded birds and the fear he sees in Shelby's eyes is something he can't ignore. The two join forces, but each has their deep wounds. Can Shelby learn to trust in time to save her life? The way Ms. Dare handles characterization was the best part of this book. Shelby and Aaron are characters you love, for all their wounds. You just want to hug them and make them feel good. The suspense is mimimal, compared to say, a Linda Howard book. Nothing dark and evil here, but it works for this book. This is a book about healing wounds and Ms. Dare does a fabulous job. A really enjoyable read.
