Ms. Enoch Has Penned A Winner!!, March 27, 2005
I admit to reading anything this author writes...she is that good. I was so suprised when I found out that one of my favorite historical romance authors had switched gears and genres! My first thought was..."a contemporary romantic supsense read? No way!" WAY! Ms. Enoch has mangaged to switch gears without missing a step. The end result is a rather funny but entertaining read that you won't want to miss out on.
Sam Jellico is a thief. She has her standards but she's a thief none the less. She has just broken into Rick Addison's home. She is there for one item, and one item only. What she ends up getting is caught and not in the way you think. One minute she's almost home free...the next she is saving rich Rick from being blow sky high. Problem with this is she is now considered a suspect in the death of a security guard. She has only one witness to the fact that she didn't kill anyone...if anything she saved a life, and that witness is...yup, you guessed it Rick. Wull she be able to convince this handsome Brit that they can and should work together to figure out just who on earth wants Rick dead?
Rick should have been in Germany...instead he's home and right in the thick of things when BAM! His life is turned upside down. He knows that his lady thief is not responsible but the police think otherwise. Than the minx breaks in AGAIN and offers to make a deal with him. Should he get himself tied up with the beautiful thief or should he take his chances with a killer?
This was a very fast read! Samanatha and Rick are great characters. Both are strong willed and used to being in charge. It was fun to read about them falling in love while hunting for a sick would be murder. Ms. Enoch has taken on the genre of romantic suspense and has done so with style. I highly recommend this read and this author.

Marvelous Genre Jump!, February 11, 2006
I do love Enoch's historicals so I was slightly hesitant to read her first contemporary. Thank goodness I did! Flirting with Danger is a fast, fun romp and I have tosay I think that her contemporary voice is even better than her historical one.
I won't give a plot synopsis. You can get that from the book description.
Sam is a wonderful heroine. I loved how unashamed she was of her past. She's unique and interesting and wholly likeable in her twisted nature. How rare is that?
And Rick? Oh my. Rich - check. Hot beyond hot - check. Totally adores Sam - check. Strong, muscular, handsome - check. Yeah, nice one.
Fun and interesting mystery. Excellent secondary characters. Steamy hot chemistry. Great dialog. I quite enjoyed Flirting With Danger and I'll definitely be looking forward to the others in the series!

Funny First Contemporary, November 15, 2005
Flirting with Danger is a well written novel and I am looking forward to the next installment. I laughed so hard. Suzanne Enoch normally writes historicals. I had read an excerpt for this novel and was just a little nervous about reading it. I however thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for an excellent book.
The heroine does a few stupid things that cause the reader to laugh as well as the stupid things the hero does. It takes place in the United Staets which is also a step away from normalcy for Ms. Enoch. There is murder and intrigue that draws the reader in as well as the chemistry between the two main characters. The second in the series will be out in January and continues to follow the story of Samantha Jellicoe and Richard Addison.
