"No matter how much my vibe changes I think this one probably stays on [the list] consistently and that’s Midnight Express. That one is always in my top five. I think it goes through all the emotions. It puts you on the edge of your seat, it breaks your heart, it scares the crap out of you. I even laugh a little when they do that yoga scene. That’s the one thing I’ve never really understood. Do you remember that part? When they do naked yoga together? I understand what they’re conveying, that these two people find companionship and peace inside of all the insanity going on around them. The blond guy and your main character, Billy, have this, like… it’s not romantic, but it’s very… it is sensual in a way, this yoga scene, together, and the way they shot it with the light coming through the window. It always makes me chuckle. But yeah, Midnight Express, man, it’s always on the top five."

4.5 stars.

This is my first ever J.D. Robb book and it definitely wont be my last. I've read Nora Roberts books before and liked them too, mainly her romantic suspense ones.

I was so caught up in this story, once I really started reading it, and never wanted to put it down for sleep or work or anything. The mix of romance and mystery and police investigation had me hooked from pretty early on.

I think it was the romance mainly. From that first meeting of gazes at the funeral I knew something was going to happen. Roarke was just enough mystery and hotness to compliment Eve and her cool aloofness.

The murders were also a source of great intrigue. There was a list of people who would want to kill these women but I could never figure out who it was, though looking back they were always a little shifty.

I'm looking forward to reading more books in this series and by the author.
