5.0 out of 5 stars Well-written; really held my interest, July 8, 2009

No Second Chance

I seldom read romantic suspense, but I'm so glad I came across Maggie Toussaint's No Second Chance because the plot really held my interest and the quality of her writing is a pleasure to read. I say this as a not-easily-impressed book editor.
The two main characters are most convincing in their behavior and motivation, especially Hope's mistrust of the persuasive Devlin. Moreover I didn't know who the villain was until the end. In fact, I'd pegged the wrong character. Well done!

4.0 out of 5 stars Romance and Horses - A Winning Combination, July 15, 2008

By	Lynn Reynolds "www.lynnreynolds.com" (Planet Earth) - See all my reviews

NO SECOND CHANCE is a clever mystery with a likable heroine and an interesting setting. Hope Farrier runs Second Chance Farm, a refuge for abused and mistreated horses. Unfortunately, the farm's hanging by a thread financially.

Enter wealthy playboy Devlin Temple. Is he the knight in shining armor who will rescue Hope's farm from financial ruin? Or is he a self-centered opportunist out to rob her of her life's work? Hope isn't quite sure, but she discovers she enjoys Devlin's attentions.

When unlikely accidents keep occurring at the farm, Hope is forced to consider that someone wants control of her farm badly enough to kill her.

This is a wonderful romantic suspense novel for animal lovers!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great novel for lovers of romance, suspense or horses..., March 20, 2008

By	Teri A. Wilson "puppylove" (San Antonio, Texas) - See all my reviews

I read this book in three days. Once I started, I just could not put it down. It is a wonderful read for any one who enjoys romantic suspense or is simply a horse lover. The heroine is so very likable, the horses are sweet as pie and the hero... what can I say? Yum.

I highly recommend it!
