Allison Brennan is Back and Better Than Ever!, Dec 31 2010
By valarie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Love Me to Death: A Novel of Suspense (Mass Market Paperback)
I am a huge fan of Allison Brennan's suspense novels and am happy to say she is back in her "thriller game" with Love Me To Death. So much about this book was classic Brennan: fast pace, nail biting suspense, never-saw-them-coming plot twists. The ending was absolutely amazing. But, for me, this one was even better than previous books because of the wonderful hero, Sean Rogan. He's strong - even arrogant and alpha -- without ever being a jerk. And Lucy Kincaid is a perfect match, even with all her serious baggage. I read this one in two days and have already preordered the next one.

taut "FBI" romantic suspense, Dec 31 2010

Six years ago, Lucy Kincaid met a seemingly nice man on-line. When they finally met in person, he proved to be a psychopath. He attacked her, but she survived while her molester died.
Since the assault, Lucy dreams of becoming an undercover FBI agent. In the meantime in DC waiting for the feds to call, she works obsessively as a volunteer for Women and Children First! Her role is to lure web predators and other sex offenders into traps. However, Lucy becomes concerned with her endeavor when she realizes several of those she busted have been executed since leaving prison. A friend and business cohort of Lucy's concerned brothers, private investigator Sean Rogan, tries to keep her safe. They are attracted to one another, but are hesitant to act on their feelings. Meanwhile Lucy probes the connections that seem chaotic, but at the same time the FBI is scrutinizing her actions as she is more than just a person of interest in what is believed a serial killer's vendetta.
Love Me to Death is a taut "FBI" romantic suspense thriller starring family members from Sudden Death and Cutting Edge. The story line is fast-paced but driven by obsessed Lucy who is stunned to realize someone is following up on her efforts to capture sex predators by killing the psychopaths. Although purposely serpentine with surprising but fun chaotic misdirection and red herrings that confuse the heroine (and readers), this approach enhances the investigation that Lucy and Sean conduct. There are also a ton of support characters who can overwhelm the reader at times trying to remember who's who, but this also adds to the fog of a convoluted inquiry as Allison Brennan provides a tense twisting thriller.

Another Great Installment, Dec 29 2010

So I still have some unanswered questions, however, I now AB will answer them in the next two books. This was a great start to the Lucy series. Sean and her are a great pair. Plus it wasn't clogged with to many Kincaids. Lucy sure has grown up a lot. The jury is still out on Noah, as I kept calling him a jerk, up until the end. The overall bad guy was not who I expected, which was great cause I thought I knew in the first five pages. Can't wait to see Patrick shine in Kiss Me, Kill Me.
