DANGEROUSLY

Something wonderful this way comes….

Next comes Jon Sutton, another mystery man. Unlikely lab tech, unlikely lover. While Demi's hot on the trail of an unsurpassable fragrance, Jon sniffs closer and closer to an earth-shattering revelation.

If Demi and Jon can survive one final, terrifying night that tests their courage and devotion to its limits, they just might find the true scent of happiness.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best romance novels I ever read., June 17, 2010

This review is from: The Scent of a Woman (Mass Market Paperback)

I just recently re-read The Scent of a Woman to see if it is actually as charming and amazing as my teenage memories pegged it. It really is! Jon Sutton is an archeological chemistry professor critically injured and wheelchair bound. His brother Trace with the FBI places Jon in a terrorist suspect's lab.

The suspect, Demi Cousteau, is a beautiful, demanding Egyptian and French New Yorker bent on creating the most enticing perfume. Now she has a new employee who seems nerdy and shy one moment, and riveting the next. The author brings out fantastic details that captures the chemistry and laughter of real attraction. The focus on scents and the senses during their flirtation is very sexy. The terrorist plot is interesting, and Demi's slow discovery of the man behind the wheelchair and glasses is romantic.

I've read many romance novels, and Jon is still the guy I'd want to marry.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb mix of romance and suspence, March 14, 1999

This review is from: The Scent of a Woman: Loving Dangerously (Harlequin Superromance No. 770) (Paperback)

I found this book to be an excellent read: it had it all: a gorgeous woman, an annoying but handsome man, a dark but exciting villain, and a plot not commonly found in romance books. It could stand on its own in any edition.

Sure, like an all romance books, the conflict could be easily solved with a little bit of effort, but then, that's what's so good about Harlequin books.

Read this one, you won't be disappointed.
