Disfruté este libro. Es una lectura rápida, con mucho enganche. Los personajes son interesantes, complejos, imperfectos. Se trata de un libro de suspenso romántico, y el balance entre ambos aspectos está bien logrado, aunque tal vez se inclina más hacia el romance y por eso no lo padecí.
Me gustó la parte del misterio, el suspenso, aunque muchas veces era mucho ruido y pocas nueces. Será que vi mucho CSI de chica, pero siempre estaba esperando que saliera todo MUY MAL. Por suerte para mi salud mental no fue tan así.
No me convenció el final, demasiado rápido, como que la autora piso el acelerador a fondo y no llegamos a ver todo el paisaje. O algo así.
Igual, recomiendo totalmente este libro para lectoras de Romance que quieren explorar un costado distinto del género, y para lectores de policiales que estén dispuestos a sacarse los prejuicios y pasar un rato entretenido.

Serviceable romance, but not up to Krentz's usual.

This was my first Jayne Ann Krentz, and I was quite pleased with it. I found myself picking it up even when I only had a few minutes to read, which is a very good sign that it kept me interested. I also found myself changing my mind about it while reading… There is a cat that JAK lets out of the bag a little early in the book, and I originally thought that was a mistake. However, that cat turns out to be a dog (you get my metaphor here, right?), so instead of a disappointing plot slip you find you’ve fallen victim to a very good red herring. Never would I have guessed the real reason for Pamela’s death. And there’s just the right amount of romance mixed in with the suspense as Luke and Irene find some stress relief in each other. The epilogue is a little too sappy for my tastes, but I guess she wanted to make sure everyone gets their happily ever after.

One of the better reading experiences I've had with this author in a while! Definitely not the best romantic suspense that I've read but still thoroughly fun to read. The mystery was unpredictable enough that I was interested the whole time, the characters had really good chemistry and I liked it enough that I read the whole thing mostly one sitting.
