Kiss Me, Kill Me by Maggie Shayne


Someone is after her son. She's been protecting him all her life and she's not going to stop now.

Harlequin has published this book in paperback. I downloaded my review copy from Net Galley (thank you) and was pleasantly surprised by just how good a read this was. I hadn't read Maggie Shane's books before because she was doing a vampire series, and I'm not into vampires (despite the latest craze for them).

A new doctor is traveling to her new job when she finds a pregnant woman ready to deliver. She helps her deliver the baby, then goes to find a phone to call for help. She can't find a phone but when she returns, the lady is gone. However, her jacket has the baby cuddled in it!

Carrie adopts the baby but lives in fear that someone will take him away from her.

Ms. Shayne's characters are strong and vibrant. The plot is interesting. It's a bit far fetched, but this is fiction and it makes a good story.

The author gives you three new people in town that could all potentially mean trouble for Carrie and Sam. I didn't see the ending coming - it has suspense all the way through the book.

This is a good thriller/romance tale and well worth a read. Get yourself a copy and see what you think - I think you'll like it.
