Dark of Night by Suzanne Brockmann

5.0

I approached this book with caution due to the traces of foam I saw splattered on the path from certain fans who didn't appreciate the ending. That being said, I loved this book and agree 100% with the direction the author took.

SpoilerSophia, Sophia, Sophia.
I know a lot of people wanted to see her with Decker, but I never did. They never had compatible personalities from the very beginning—and that was BEFORE Decker went ballistic over that... event... in the abandoned building.

From the first moment that Dave mentioned knowing her from his CIA days I wanted them together. Then to see how much he adored her? He has always been, imo, exactly what she needs. Those two fit together perfectly. I'm glad Sophia finally recognized it.

Tracy though?
She was a little bit of a surprise, but not completely. Brockmann I think was hinting at this particular pairing when she played out that scene with Deck and Tracy in the Hotel room. The one where she dumps out her bag with ah, embarassing items in it? There was a spark between them. Just a little one, but it's definitely there.

I also liked how Tracy AND Decker's characters developed in this book. We learned a lot about both of them, and I for one, think they make a perfect couple. Tracy's not as Ditzy as she first appeared.
