Fiction. Literature. Romance. HTML:

In her first paperback original in more than six years, New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Brockmann delivers an unforgettable novel of contemporary romance and thrilling suspense.

When history professor Alison Carter became a consultant to the film version of the Wild West legend she'd dedicated her career to researching, she couldn't possibly have known that she would not only get a front-row seat to a full-blown Hollywood circus but would innocently witness something that would put her life in peril. Nor did she expect that a tall stranger in a cowboy hat would turn the movie--and her world--completely upside down.

A. J. Gallagher didn't crash the set in dusty Arizona to rub elbows with Hollywood's elite. Unable to ignore ghosts from the past that refuse to stay buried, A. J. came to put an end to the false legend that has tarnished the reputation of his family. But when he confronts Alison, sparks fly. And when Alison is targeted by ruthless criminals, suddenly she and A .J. must face the intense attraction that threatens to consume them--and survive the danger that threatens their very lives.

From the Paperback edition.

Enjoyable read featuring the spirit of the main character's great-grandfather (Jamie Gallagher) who's out to not only help his great-grandson find happiness but also get the truth of his own story out, eclipsing that of the man who turns out to be the oh-so-charming-monster (Silas Quinn).

Brockmann writes highly enjoyable books and this one well worth the read. ( )

I was disappointed in this book. In general, I really like Brockmann's books. But this one has a ghost as a major character. Although he was entertaining, I found his uber-presence annoying. The book, as a result, jumped around to his story, his great-great-grandson's story, the major female character's POV, etc. All this jumping around cuts the suspense and romance elements impacts. The book didn't get really suspenseful until the final third. I'm glad I finsihed it because the last half of the book gave me enough reading pleasure to add an entire star to my rating. ( )

rabck from aramena; romantic suspense. Historian Alison Carter is on the movie set to see that her book on Silas Quinn is historically accurate in the movie. AJ arrives on the set, at the behest of his Grampa Jamie's ghost, to set the record straight. Silas lied in his account, and can AJ get Alison to believe him before the bad guys kill Alison for a misinterpreted sighting of a deal? ( )

Not a fan of this book. I would love to give it even three stars...it certainly doesn't earn four...but, I can't. I love the last 100-150 pages and that is it. The rest is mind numbingly confusing. I don't like the alternating point of view AND the epistolary device. I do give Brockmann kudos for keeping her characters real! ( )

Really good stuff - a single title and a paranormal with an active character who is the ghost of the hero's great grandfather. I was a little leery of the premise. Heroine is a historical consultant who wrote a book on the protagonist of a movie being made about a supposed classic historical "good guy marshal" who killed the bad guy who had kidnapped and murdered the Marshal's wife.

Except the 42 year old first Iraq war vet greatgrandson of the supposed bad has an entirely different version where the bad guy and the woman he supposedly killed lived out long lives in Alaska.

This book has a similar feel to Heartthrob and to the Unsung Hero and if you enjoyed those, I think you'll like this, unless you are allergic to ghosts. Personally I loved the ghost.

I liked the fact that the thriller part of the plot didn't involve terrorists or spies, although the real present day bad guys were a little over the top.

I'd love to see more like this one from Suzanne. Much as I like the Troubleshooters it gets hard to have such a huge ensemble cast hanging around. ( )
