Description Supposing Books Woman on the Run
What's a girl to do? Sophisticated urbanite Julia Devaux loves her life. What's not to love? A fabulous job in publishing, wonderful friends, gorgeous apartment, the company of her beautiful though temperamental Siamese cat, Federico Fellini--she's got it made. But then Julia has the bad luck to witness a Mob murder and her life goes straight down the toilet. Under the Witness Security program, Julia is relocated to the boondocks, a hundred miles from the nearest bookstore and Estee Lauder outlet, where the only fast food is deer and the only entertainment is sex with a laconic local rancher. Luckily, talking isn't what Sam Cooper does best... Former SEAL Sam Cooper can't believe his luck when mystery woman Sally Anderson hits town. Simpson, Idaho, can't even offer a decent cup of coffee let alone gorgeous new grade school teachers. The instant Cooper sees Sally, he stakes her out as his own. Granted, he's not much good at talking, but he does his best to keep her happy. When he discovers her life is in danger, he'll stop at nothing to keep her safe and with him. He's not alone. The whole town of Simpson wants to keep her. Publisher's Note: This is a rewritten and expanded version of a story previously published under the title PURSUED.Rating Out Of Books Woman on the Run

11/01/2014 re rated from a 3 star to a 4. I had issues with the start, but since I finished it I have found myself thinking about it and how much I liked it in the end and I shall be trying more books of hers out.This was my first book by this author.Have to admit, in the first few pages, I was wondering if I would finish this.We have Julia Devaux, who witnesses a mob murder.And what are her concerns upon being told she has to go into the Witness protection programme? The name she has beenIm really confused, I like this book more that I should judging by all signs. And its probably mostly thanks to the writing and not the story itself.The whole idea behind the book is pretty fine, while not being overly innovative. There is some potential in the story of a successful business woman from Boston sent by the Witness Protection System to the small town in Idaho. Unfortunately, this promise of a great plot is lost. Still, the book is a rather easy read without too much drama.And this
Not quite 4 stars, but rounding up. I found this very fun! It's lightweight and not something that is going to move your soul or whatever, but it's an enjoyable read. The prose is very smooth, it isn't full of terrible nonsense, and I just... enjoyed it. I find myself typically almost unable to read those "former SEAL and a random lady" suspense things because they are so over the top and trying and failing to be macho. Heroine is Julia/Sally, who inadvertently witnessed a murder and is now in
3.5 stars. Good erotic romantic suspense. Enjoyable and fun escape, but a few weak plot devices.STORY BRIEF:Julia was a city-loving book editor who witnessed a mob murder. Under the Witness Security program she is relocated to a small town in Idaho, working as a 2nd grade teacher. The murderer put out a million dollar contract on her life. Hit men are plotting and searching for her. She meets Sam who breeds horses and is a former SEAL. Julia and Sam are immediately drawn to each other and begin
CURRENTLY READING (view spoiler)[ ...this will be good. If she had red hair instead of brown, he'd probably pick her up, throw her on her bed and jump on top on her. These Lisa Marie Rice cavemen are irresistible charming to meet every time. Love them!!*********************************************************** Sophisticated urbanite Julia Devaux loves her life. Julia is a well-educated city girl loving old movies, books and nice restaurants. She has a pretty nice job in publishing, a bunch
I have to say that I find this book extremely frustrating. There is nothing special in it, its pretty basic, with a well known structure, a typical plot line, plenty to criticized about the characters, yada, yada, yada. And yet I find myself coming back to it and rereading it!! Why? Why? I have read it at least 3 times already! Whats wrong with me? I swear I have much more bad things to say about it than good things but for some reason it beckons me! It kills me to admit it but I find Sam Cooper
3.75 stars, rounded up. Absorbing. Suspenseful erotica with a lovely feel-good STORY about a dying community. Some bits at the end bugged me, we spent too much time in the killer's mind, and the sex ... felt exhausting. But I just loved Cooper! (The cover art does NOT do him justice.)
