This novel is a fast-paced, witty & brilliant portrayal of a beautiful woman living in a her fairly flawed reality...Bethany True takes the modern appeal of Sex & the City-esque characters and places those personalities in an engrossing drama that harkens the reader back to the days of Dynasty and Dallas. FINALLY Southern characters are depicted artfully and without the usual stereotypes! Sensuality, Scandal, Suspense--New twists with every turn of the page!

I loved reading every minute of it and can't wait to read her next novel!

I loved this book. It was laugh out loud funny, very well paced and had wonderfully steamy love scenes.... which for me .....makes a perfect book. I will be on the look out for more of this writers future books. A+++++

Remember the Alimony by Bethany True is a terrific debut romance murder mystery. The first half gives the reader a great steamy romance and the second half sends all the murder mystery lovers trying to stay one step ahead of the next big clue. Will keep my out for more by this author.

I loved this book. It was sweet and funny, very amusing, and the suspense was actually suspenseful. The characters were strong and very likeable. I highly recommend it and look forward to a second book by Bethany True.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the characters, although there were times I kind of wanted to shake my head at Lucas. I know it's totally a guy thing, but you should be able to go a month or longer without sex, so when he was thinking this at a very tender moment I did want to thunk him. But I also loved how desperate he was toward Delaney--I loved how he called her and drove past her house, typically we see those types of "stalkerish" behavior in women, so it was nice to see a guy caving in for a change. This book was very fast paced. The dialogue was witty. The book had a perfect balance of romance, sex and suspense.

I look forward to other books by Bethany True.

This book was excellent! I will definitely be on the lookout for more books by Bethany True. BRAVO!

Former Miss Texas Delaney Davis-Daniels met the hunk when she went out with her friends. They talk about lap dancing and more as the alcohol flows. Delaney and the stud end up in bed together. To her it was heaven until the "morning" after when she learns she was sleeping with the enemy. Her terrific bedfellow is her former spouse's divorce attorney Lucas Church.

Delaney vows to never see Lucas again; Lucas vows to definitely see Delaney again. When their "matchmaker" is murdered, the police suspect Delaney killed her louse of a spouse in a crime of passion. She plans to prove otherwise by uncovering the identity of the real culprit. Lucas vows to help the woman he loves on her quest while praying for a miracle in which he keeps the girl out of jail, keeps his law license as disbarment is possible, and keeps the girl.

REMEMBER THE ALIMONY is a wonderful lighthearted chick lit amateur sleuth romance starring two likable protagonists. The story line is fast-paced from the moment Lucas bids on her dancing but quickly twists into a murder mystery as Delaney knows the cops are only looking at her; for that matter so is Lucas but his motive is different. Disavowing Texas "truisms" of never sleep with the enemy and your ex's lawyer is clearly an enemy combatant even if you fall in love with him, fans will enjoy Delaney's motto REMEMBER THE ALIMONY not the hunk.

It was an enjoyable read but I can't quite give it the same high reviews as others. The second half of the book, where the murder comes into play through me a little in the reality department. But the romance between Lucas and Delaney was very sweet. And the sex sences were very hot. I'll look for this author again even if she never does make it into my top ten favs.
