Summary: exciting thriller
Comment: Denver coffeehouse owner Addison Fox arrives at the private investigator's office seeking to hire the sleuth to help her find her biological parents. Instead, the drunken detective hassles her until he realizes he has bothered the wrong client. A few days later, her lawyer provides Addison with the name of her biological mother, but by the time she arrives in Ohio to meet Agnes Beckett, she learns her mom was recently murdered.
Three weeks later, Transportation Department Aviation Disasters Investigator Randall Talbot apologizes to Addison for his behavior in his brother's office. When a trespasser enters her coffee shop, Randall saves her life. He insists this was a professional hit. Later she finds her lawyer dead and Randall proves that her adopted parents were murdered in what was allegedly a car accident. She has no idea why someone wants her dead and why those close to her are being killed. As Randall and Addison fall in love, he carries baggage from his job that has left him on sabbatical while she knows anyone close to her dies.
THE PERFECT VICTIM is an exciting thriller that slowly builds the romance mostly to augment the suspense. The action packed story line keeps readers wondering why Addison is a death magnet of the killer. Though the climax seems a bit weak for this powerful tale, readers will root for the lead couple to overcome the impossible odds by defeating her foe and learning who her biological father is. Linda Castillo furbishes a strong tale that fans of suspense will enjoy.

Summary: Wow, wow, wow!
Comment: THE PERFECT VICTIM is awesome. It just got a permanent place on my keeper shelf. This is Ms. Castillo's first single title romantic suspense, and she did not disappoint. I was riveted from the moment I started reading the intense prologue until the end of the book. Addison Fox is a strong, believable heroine, who owns a Denver coffee shop, and is searching for her birth parents. Randall Talbot is a burned-out airplane crash investigator for the federal Transportation Department, who's on leave for post-traumatic stress disorder, and working for his brother's PI firm. Addison and Randall do not get off to a good start as he mistakenly assumes she's a prostitute who owes his brother money. It is fortuitous that Randall comes to Addison's coffee shop a few weeks later to apologize for his behavior, because he saves her life when a masked assailant tries to kill her. Then he and Addison team up to find out why everyone involved in the search for her birth parents have been systematically murdered. The suspense, action and romance don't let up for a moment. Ms. Castillo's trademark bad-boy, tormented hero and incredible descriptions, along with sizzling sexual tension, and heart-stopping action are present throughout. Don't start this book until you have time to read it straight through, because I guarantee you won't want to put it down.

Summary: Garbage!
Comment: Addison Fox fell in love with the man who assaulted her. They had sex a few times while investigating her case. One of the descriptions of their sex sounded more like a description of rape. I can't believe this garbage was written by a woman!
