More About the Author

Elizabeth Adler is a self-confessed romantic, a travel addict and a foodie, all of which she brings to the reader in her novels, along with a tough thrust of suspense and an unfolding mystery that keeps you on your toes. Elizabeth has lived in many countries and when she's not writing spends time discovering even more places to bring to you, with her husband, Richard - still in love after all these years - as are the characters featured in her past three novels, Mac Reilly the Malibu PI and Sunny Alvarez, his lover and side kick. You have to read about them to know them! Elizabeth lives in California and has the ability to take you to all those romantic places she knows so well, Capri, Venice, Tuscany, St. Tropez, Monte Carlo, and of course, Malibu. You will feel you are there, with her, sitting on that Italian terrace, sipping that coffee, smelling the delicious food, savoring the heat and the sunshine and the mystery unfolding for you. Elizabeth is five-three and wishes she were taller, blind as a bat without her glasses that anyway she is too vain to wear, and at 128 lbs till thinking about that diet. She has one daughter, Anabelle who is married to rock musician Eric Avery and two kitties, the Siamese, Sweet Pea who rules the household, and an adorable black cat Sunny.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good premise, bad execution, April 21, 2000

This review is from: All or Nothing (Hardcover)

Elizabeth Adler had a great idea but her new crime solver leaves a lot to be desired. Her villian was interesting and fun. BUT the banter between Al and Marla was ridiculous. The story was obliterated by the constant bedding of Al by Marla. If Adler had stuck to the story she'd have written another great book. Instead All or Nothing should be called Some or Nothing.

This is a very easy book to read, if you can read it in an airplane you will enjoy your flight and your book, the story of a private investigator and his girlfriend solving a very peculiar case (her first case) is really cute.

I read the reviews on this one and they aren't great but decided to read it anyway. If you want a book that touches you or makes you think, this is not it! However, if you want a book just to give you a few hours of distraction, then this will do it. I thought the hero and heroine were quite comical (though the sex was overdone a bit)and a villian you loved to hate though not all bad (she loved dogs). As for detective work, they were all so pathetic, I got frustrated with them. It's not one I would read again but was a fun read for a few hours.
