4.0 out of 5 stars Graham Grips, July 2, 2000

By

"goldcoastreviews" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tall, Dark, and Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)

Amongst the backdrop of flashy Miami Beach, Coconut Grove, lurking monsters in the Everglades, Graham grips you again into the world of mystery & romance.

I relaxed & had fun with this book. I could feel the danger lurking off Key Biscayne. The twisting complex relationship between Sam, a witty, brave woman & Rowan, her sexy ex-lover was truly enjoyable. I found myself leary but pulling for them.

"Tall, Dark, and Deadly" left me thrilled, chilled, and satisfied.

if you find my comments interesting, please click the *yes*--thanks--CDS

5.0 out of 5 stars Mary Higgins Clark wishes to write this well!, July 5, 1999

By

Lance Taubold - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tall, Dark, and Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)

From the ghastly, engrossing first page through the suspense-filled surprise ending, Graham's new novel reads like the book Mary Higgins Clark has been trying to write for years. Graham manages to make one actually feel the sweaty atmosphere of hot, humid southern Florida, so much so, that as one tears through the the pages of this pulse-pounding and ever-so romantic thriller,this reader found himself mopping his brow on more than one occasion. As for characters, each one has a rich and unique personality, seldom seen in the genre. Ms. Graham's moments of humor are apt, never calculated and always derive honestly from the characters, as well as being welcome tension breakers. If you've never read a Heather Graham novel-GET THIS ONE! For suspense, romantic or otherwise, it just doesn't get any better. Bravo! Ms. Graham. You've done it again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I'd been looking for..., August 15, 1999

By

Danielle Stevens (Philadelphia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tall, Dark, and Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)

Summers are slow, lazy, and hot; Heather Graham's latest thriller was just what I needed to give me a little chill...her 'tall, dark, and deadly' villain seemed so real that I found myself checking the doors and windows before I went to bed. The romance between Sam and Rowan developed naturally before reaching a gratifying intensity. I also loved the scene-setting. It was so dreamy and enticing that I think I want to buy a house on the ocean...

2.0 out of 5 stars UGH!!!
If you are looking for suspense, look elsewhere! If you are looking for gushing prose that would do a Harlequin romance novel proud, this is the book for you.
