White Hot
3.5 Stars
A solid romantic suspense.
While the plot is entertaining, it is not extraordinary and the supposedly surprising twist is actually predictable.
The characters are quite stereotypical: the patriarch, the prodigal daughter, the favorite son, the corrupt layer, the town bad boy, etc.
Overall, the romance is better than the mystery.

Reminds me of Slow Heat in Heaven (which I love). So many shockers.
Sayre is strong and stubborn (in a good way), while Beck is oh-so ruthless and clever. One of the better Sandra Browns, I think.

1. Uninteresting 2. Flat characters 3. Most unbearably, the misogynistic character as love interest & the old "after she said no, he forced himself on her, and she liked it an fell for him" plotting

It never changes with Sandra Brown - you are hooked by the first chapter or or two of any novel she writes, then you can barely put then book down until completion. It's really impossible to guess who the bad guy is - ever, because when it comes to writing intrigue, Ms. Brown just about holds the patent.
WHITE HOT is the story of one man's success in owning a manufacturing company that is the livelihood of a town called Destiny, Louisiana. All of the men in the story seem nefarious in one way or another. When Danny Hoyle is dead of apparent suicide, Sayre Holye Lynch - living in San Francisco - returns home for the first time in a decade. Her plans to leave immediately after the funeral services are derailed as quite a few things are not quite right, and Sayre's not leaving without answers. One man that could give her at least some insight is her enemy to the best of her knowledge, but that does not stop the passionate feelings that begin to grow between the two. Pick up (or download) a copy of WHITE HOT and you will be kept on your toes literally to the very end.
