Olivia Winters, successful New York model, is returning to
her home town to help plan for the Donley High School's 10
year reunion. In truth she is there with private
investigator Max Lyon looking into the death of a former
classmate and trying to see if some other "accidents" were
tied somehow to a past that she would love to forget. To
get to the truth she goes to the Rockfort Security Agency
to set up her own private investigation and in the process
links with someone from her past. This PRIVATE AFFAIR is
about the blow up a secret that no one wants out ...
especially the killer.
Max Lyon, bad boy of the school, is now a respected member
of Rockfort Security Agency. Olivia had come to them for
help when her classmate was murdered and there were no
leads. But his instincts tell him that Olivia is leaving
out something... something very important ... something
that
happened at a party all those years ago. He will find the
truth and protect the beauty with everything he has. He
just doesn't expect to fall for her ... she was always out
of
his league, but seeing her courage under fire, he is
seeing
the real Olivia and a woman he wants forever.
PRIVATE AFFAIR is edgy and intriguing, with a good splash
of steamy romance. Author Rebecca York does a
contemporary
mystery with just the right amount of tension to keep
readers in her grasp while nudging them to the unexpected
finale. I loved meeting Olivia and Max and through each
page got to know them as we watched them get to know each
other and reconciling a past they both seemed to want to
get over. It was very interesting to read about the fears
that Olivia, who is now a renown model, had when she went
to high school (such as being made fun of for not having
the right clothes)... things most of us either went
through
and could understand. These are the touches that Ms. York
puts in her books that make you feel what the main
characters are feeling and root for them to succeed in
whatever their quest might be. I also liked the security
team members, Shane and Jack, who had Max and Olivia's
backs through out the whole book. Having missed reading
Ms.
York's other Rockfort Security books Bad Nights
and Betrayed I have two books to get my hands on. PRIVATE
AFFAIR will have you glued to the pages and wanting more.
Does everyone have something to hide? Olivia Winters and
Max Lyon knew each other way back when, but she was one of
the cool kids, and he was a bad boy from the wrong side of
the tracks. Olivia's a successful model now, and Max a PI
much in demand. When Olivia's old high school friend is
murdered-and a raft of "accidental" deaths may be
murders, too-Max is the only man Olivia can trust to help
her investigate. As they team up, Max is blown away by
Olivia's courage under fire, and Olivia finds that the
bad boy she remembers from the fringes of her social
circle might just be the best man she's ever met...
