Since both of their feelings have changed, Ace knows that he must protect Hartley. Until one day, Hartley and Taylor are kidnapped by the murderer. Could the murderer be one of the blind dates?

I love BLIND DATE. This is another book that I just couldn't put down. Ms. Jewel captured the true meaning of friendship between Hartley and Taylor. BLIND DATE also shows never judge a person by their cover. There is some sex in this book, but not enough that you would be offended.

Maybe a sequel to BLIND DATE would be great. Did Hartley and Ace continue their relationship? You kept me guessing through the entire story. A couple times I thought I knew what was going to happen, but I was wrong. Great job, great book, if you want a fast read this is the one for you.
