Review
Dangerous Curves opens with Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer, Samantha Martin, running through a Florida swamp from the Happy Haven Mental Institution. Fearing for her life, she is more frightened of the people who are after her than the snakes and alligators lurking in the dark. Jake Cavanaugh is an ex-cop who threw in the towel after his best friend and partner was killed on duty. On his way home from a fishing trip, the last thing he expects on a deserted Florida highway is a woman in major trouble. He picks Samantha up, intending only to give her a ride, but when her story comes out, he pulls over at a truck stop and calls one of his cop friends to help her. But then, two gunmen arrive. They shoot the policeman, and after Jake and Samatha escape, they kill the waitress and the cook, too. Now, wanted by the police as well as these hit-men, Jake and Samantha must figure out who wants her dead and exactly what she has captured on film that has made her a target. Along the way, she and Jake must face their own demons even as they uncover a government conspiracy, and fall irrevocably in love with one another. Many writers find it difficult to balance suspense and romance without sacrificing one for the other. Kristina Wright is not one of those authors. This book is extraordinary! The romance is to die for, and the story is fast paced, intelligently plotted, with a suspense element that will make life-long fans for this Golden Heart winning author. Along with all of this is a sizzling sexual element that completely sells the story. Try this debut novel - you won't be disappointed! Dangerous Curves is a lightning-paced ride, complete with adventure, suspense, and sexual tension! Order a pizza for dinner, and get videos for the kids - you won't want to lay this book down until the very last page is turned! In Dangerous Curves, Kristina Wright pens a masterful debut novel worthy of its 1997 Golden Heart Winner Status! A new author romance readers won't want to miss. Put this one on your to-be-bought list and make room on your keeper shelves! Jake Cavanaugh and Samantha Martin have my vote for favorite hero and heroine of the year!
