SHE WAS NO LADY— SHE WAS HIS WIFE!

Ray Madigan. The sexy cop turned P.I. was tall and lean, with a smile that tripped hearts and shoulders tailor-made for resting a head on. The kind of guy Grace could fall for— had fallen for— in a heartbeat.

Her ex-husband. Her friend. Nothing more. Until witnessing a brutal murder put her life on the line. Grace turned to Ray without question, sought shelter in his protective embrace...and wished she’ d never left him. Was it just the ever-burning passion, the way he still called her his wife? Or was it something more? Could they truly be meant for each other?

This review is from: Madigan's Wife (Silhouette Intimate Moments, No 1068) (Paperback)

This is the heartwarming, humorous, and suspenseful story of Ray Madigan, ex-cop turned Private Investigator, and Gracie Madigan, the first of his three ex-wives. While both Ray and Gracie try to appear casual and indifferent toward each other at first, it soon becomes apparent that they still love and care for each other very deeply. What comes between them is the same thing that destroyed their marriage: Ray's nonchalance about the very real dangers associated with undercover police work, and Grace's inability to cope with her fears for his life.

After Grace witnesses a murder in broad daylight and is seen and followed by the murderer, she immediately turns to Ray who not only protects her but uses all his skills (legal and otherwise) to find and eliminate the killer. The danger of his job that drove a wedge in their marriage ultimately brings them back together as Ray finally understands the fear that Gracie had to face when he was on duty.

What is so interesting about this book is the way Ray and Gracie grow throughout the story. You really get to know these characters through their humorous, frightening and very touching moments. I am looking forward to Ms. Jones' sequel later this year, and highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Madigan's Wife (Kindle Edition)

the story was nice. i loved both hero and the heroine. she was very strong. she had to take a lot. two other wives who were going to be there to remind her she was not the only one. the hero would run to rescue them every time they call. it is not that he loved them. they were friends. the hero loved the heroine very much. the heroine had to deal with the wives.

This book was so good I couldn't put it down. After I finished I found out it was part of a series " The Sinclair Connection". Seven books so far that I see. Linda Winstead Jones your the best. Can't wait to read the rest of this series.
