BOOK PREVIEW- DREAM OF DANGER by Maggie Shayne

She didn't want to need him.

Murder brought self-help guru Rachel de Luca and Detective Mason Brown together. Their shared secrets drove them apart. But now they're together again in this riveting novella that begins where New York Timesbestselling author Maggie Shayne's Sleep with the Lights On ended.

She may have been blind for twenty years, but Rachel's always had an uncanny gift for seeing through people—and she distrusts her assistant's new boyfriend at first sight. Amy isn't interested in Rachel's misgivings, though. She's too eager to celebrate Thanksgiving by introducing her family to the new man in her life.

Then Amy doesn't show up for the holiday….

Desperate to find her missing friend, Rachel has no choice but to turn to Mason. Their investigation into Amy's disappearance takes them ever deeper into danger—and reignites the attraction that they've both sworn to resist. Now it's a race against time as these reluctant partners fight to stave off passion and save a life.  AMAZON  5 STARS

Look for Wake to Darkness, the next installment in this suspenseful series, coming in December from Harlequin MIRA and Maggie Shayne.

It was short in the number of pages but I loved every minute of it. This was the first book that I have read in this series.  But I didn't have one ounce of trouble keeping up with what was going on.

The personalities in the book were strong ones and not just the main characters and I liked that.

I just HAD to give it 5 stars on Amazon just because of the writers style alone.  The way that the thought speech that went on in Rachel's head and out of her mouth was hilarious.  Rough and tough at many times but I thoroughly enjoyed it!  
The interactions between Rachel and Mason was also worth the read and I want to read more about them.  
He really "got" her, which it seems isn't always the case with other people.  I want to read more of this series and I am crossing my fingers that Rachel and Mason become a couple and stay that way.

This book also included a look into "Sleep with the Lights on" by this author.   Very interesting.  And definitely looking like an adult story too because of it's subject matter.
