Conspiracy in Death by J.D. Robb

5.0

Just when I think they can't get any better, I'm wrong. Eve is constantly evolving in this series and I love it. This one was especially more emotional for me when it came to her. Without giving any spoilers, my heart broke for her. She was alone for so long it's hard for her to see all the people that she has around her that believe in her, trust her, and would go to bat for her. And I love that each and every one of them have such a strong presence in every book: Feeney, Peabody, Whitney, Mira, McNab. But the most important is Roarke. The relationship between Eve and Roarke is something I look forward to in this series. I love that he's constantly there to help her, lift her up and just be there for her.

Out of all the books so far, Eve was the most vulnerable in this one. Literally stripped and made bare. I'm excited to see where the next book takes us!

“You know, a lot of women would get pissed off at having their husband star in their aide’s purient little fantasies.” “But you’re bigger than that, Lieutenant. I like that about you.”

“Roarke: "Pull yourself together, Eve."
He was already in a business suit, his hair shining and sleek...
Eve: "How come you already are?"
Roarke: "Because staying in bed half the morning unless sex is involved is a waste of time. Since you didn't appear to be cooperative in that area, I started my day with coffee instead”
