It was unique and kept my attention." ~Goodreads ReviewReview"TORN is a steamy romance with enough CSI-style mystery to keep the pages from melting. The story is entertaining and engaging until the end, with likeable, fully-human characters and a lively plot.The chemistry between Nicholas and Savanna is intense from the very beginning, and the love scenes are hot and passionate. The mystery part of the novel is action-packed and full of intriguing twists and turns . . . Savanna's affectionate but thoroughly non-romantic friendship with her partner Matthew Quinn . . . is particularly well done.The political and legal aspects of the job are not neglected, but neither are they dwelt upon to the point of dullness.TORN: A FORENSIC ROMANCE offers exactly what the title promises - an action-filled forensic adventure combined with intense romance - and the result is a delightfully warming diversion for a cozy snow day.
