He couldn't move on until her killer was found

For five friends, summers on a British Columbian island revolved around the beautiful Simone DeRosier. A talented singer, Simone was destined for stardom. Years later when she made it big, she immortalized her friends in a hit song just before her unexpected death.

Harrison Kincaid, Simone's husband, was one of those friends. After Simone's apparent suicide, a devastated Harrison left the island, and left the care of his home to real-estate agent Justine Melbourne. Now strange occurrences in the house have brought Harrison back . . . and into Justine's life.

But Harrison has reason to believe that Simone's death was murder, and he won't let anything -- not even another chance at love -- stand in the way of finding the murderer.

More About the Author

In another life I was a chartered accountant, but the writing bug hit me hard, and now, as I am about to become an "empty-nester", I realize that I will soon be publishing my 30th book with Harlequin.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable romantic suspense, June 17, 2006

This review is from: You Made Me Love You (Signature Select) (Mass Market Paperback)

One year ago songwriter Simone DeRosier committed suicide at their summer house on Summer Island. In Seattle, her spouse Harrison Kincaid still grieves his loss and feels guilt wondering what he could have done differently to prevent her taking her life. Harrison has not been able to set foot on the island since her death.

Justine Melbourne, the best friend of Simone's sister, calls him to tell him there may be trouble with his property on Summer Island. Reluctantly Harrison returns to the place that he used to have fond memories of, but now invokes tragic thoughts. Justine has always loved Harrison and hopes he will see her as a lover and not a buddy. However, her dreams are dashed when he begins to believe that he has uncovered evidence that Simone may have been murdered as he remains obsessed over her death

This is an enjoyable romantic suspense starring a woman feeling unrequited love, the man she wishes would return her regard, and the ghost that lies between them. The story line is driven by the lead couple as he needs to know the truth while she needs to know he loves and cherishes her. The amateur sleuthing is cleverly designed to keep the audience wondering about the hero while the romance seems late and rushed at least on his part. Fans of romantic suspense will enjoy the tale although (in spite of our desires), they will doubt any romance blossoms between Harrison and Justine.
