This was my first Sandra Brown, and I'll definitely be reading more from her in the future. I really enjoyed Play Dirty. It had a great sense of place; as a former Dallasite, I could picture the setting so clearly. I've driven those expressways, I've been to the church mentioned during the burial, etc. I loved that.

"Accused of murder, convicted of throwing a game for the mob, former Dallas Cowboys superstar Griff Burkett spent five years in federal prison. Now a free man, the fallen quarterback has no prospects -- and, worse, no forgiveness -- in football-crazy Texas. But there is someone willing to pay millions for Griff's services -- airline CEO Foster Speakman and his wife, Laura. It's a provocative and lucrative job offer Griff can't refuse, demanding only his absolute secrecy. But in this high-stakes game, Griff finds himself falling in love with Laura Speakman and racing to protect them both from a ruthless nemesis from his past. Now, plunged into the spotlight of suspicion as the clock winds down, Griff's future -- and his life -- hinge on one last perfect play." (From Amazon)

A great romantic suspense novel.

I like the flawed characters and the general premise but a lot of Sandra Brown s books feel like the sex is there as an add on rather than contributing to the overall story. The story was not enhanced by some of this detail. It made it more like a racy Mills and Boon rather than the good story it already was.

This story line is certainly a unique one. I'd really like to give away some details, but I won't. What I will mention is that a certain unforeseen event occurs which puts Griff in danger of taking the blame. We as the readers follow as Griff runs from the law and solves the crime. It's a wonderful whirlwind of activity. Again, Sandra Brown knocks one out of the park.

For any of you who enjoy a good thriller, put this on your TBR list!
