Love Camy Tang's books

Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2012

Camy writes an engaging, humorous and well crafted novel. I loved her characters and setting. The story flowed beautifully and the mystery had just the right amount of twists and turns. It was also very fresh and original. I have found all of her books, that I've read so far, a very enjoyable read. I especially enjoy the multi cultural aspect of her work.

A Mystery Who-Done-it Story

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2009

I received a complementary copy of this book and I'm so glad I did.
Camy Tang does an incredible job of packing so much action, suspense, humor and drama in only 212 pages. Wow!! What a different writing style than the one I read in her debut novel Sushi for One, which is a chick'lit style light hearted story. I didn't know what to expect when I started reading Deadly Intent. Part of me wondered how this chick'lit style writer would write a murder mystery. I was pleasantly surprised and I'm happy to report Camy pens a great who-done-it. I liked the fact that the author kept me guessing up until the very last page. Camy brings the book to a climatic ending that satisfies. Camy had me so hooked to her murder mystery I carried her book with me wherever I went grabbing a few minutes here and there to discover more clues so I could figure out who was behind all these attempted murders and killings.

At the same time Camy Tang touches on issues that cut to the heart of the matter. Because of all the drama and heartache her main character, Naomi, goes through, she starts to wonder about God. Did she really believe in Him and why was God allowing all these bad things to happen to her?

There is something honest and true about Naomi's struggle--I found out why in the author notes. Camy admits that she had these very same struggles with God that Naomi had in the book, when she was in College. I truly enjoyed this book and the way Camy brought this suspenseful story to life. The characters and their struggles were believable. It was fun to have the setting of this book at a spa. I hope that Camy has the opportunity to write a full length action adventure story. I can only imagine what she could develop with more pages to expand her characters and the plot twists. Way to go Camy!!

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2009

Deadly Intent marks Camy Tang's first foray into romantic suspense fiction, and she proves to be as adept at crafting an engaging suspense story as she is at making readers laugh with her "romance with a kick of wasabi" flavored Sushi Series. In Deadly Intent, Naomi Grant, massage therapist and acting manager of the exclusive Joy Luck Life Spa, finds herself trapped in a murderous web of danger and intrigue when one of her clients ends up dead, and suddenly she's a suspect. The victim just happens to be the ex-wife of the very handsome, brooding Dr. Devon Knightley - as the ex-spouse, Devon is the #1 suspect, until a series of subsequent events makes it clear that someone's not just targeting the spa - they're intent on framing Naomi for their crimes. Naomi and Devon join forces to clear their names, but can their fledgling attraction to each other survive the threat that surrounds them?

This is definitely one of the strongest Love Inspired Suspense novels that I've read. Camy's skill for characterization and pacing help make this short and sweet read shine. She also shows a flair for building some real tension and threat into the storyline, an element that's sometimes lacking in LI Suspense reads that focus too heavily on the "love" part of the brand and not enough on the promised "suspense" element. My one complaint about the book is that it's far too short - but that's the nature of the LI series. Camy gives Naomi and Devon wonderful character arcs - they have some real "baggage" to work through while seeking out the killer and falling in love. This is especially true for Devon, as he starts out as an unbeliever - and this is where I wish the novel had more room develop his character's journey. It seems a tad rushed. However, a strong suspenseful plot, engaging characters, and some sizzling romantic tension make this a fun way to while away a few hours. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more suspense from Camy Tang!

I could not get into this book. In my opinion there were far to many unimportant characters. I really thought I’d like it. I forced myself to finish it to find out “who did it”. When that was figured out, I was thinking, who is that? I probably thought that because I just skimmed through the book, because it didn’t hold my attention. I would pass on this one.

"Deadly Intent" by Camy Tang

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2009

"Deadly Intent" by Camy Tang is set in California's Sonoma Valley at the Grant family's JoyLuck Life Spa. Naomi Grant is running the spa for her father, who has recently suffered a stroke. Unfortunately, under her watch, a murder takes place, and sends her on a quest to discover who the murderer is before she's accused of a crime she didn't commit.

Her love interest in the story is Dr. Devon Knightley. Isn't that a great hunky name for the hero? Naomi is attracted to him on many levels, but there's one thing that keeps her from trusting him. He's the murder victim's ex-husband!

The spiritual thread of the story is based on Zephaniah 3:17: "The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save." I loved how this verse and spiritual concept is woven throughout the story.

The author does a wonderful job of combining romance, suspense and inspiration in this fun read.
