Publisher's summary

Carla Neggers' sizzling novels are loved for their deliciously funny dialogue, electrifying suspense, and heart-stopping romance. Here, the New York Times bestselling author presents a fast-paced, scintillating tale of love, art, and danger....

Annie Payne realizes her dream when she moves to San Francisco and opens an art gallery. But when she accepts a secret commission to bid for a painting going on the auction block, she finds herself thrown into a haunting swirl of events linked to a five-year-old unsolved murder. Who is this secret client?

Marina owner Garvin MacCrae was determined to have the portrait of his late wife, and knows of only one person who would want it enough to outbid him. Could the intriguing art dealer who represented the auction winner hold the key to the mystery of his wife's death? Working together to untangle a murderer's clues, Garvin and Annie strike so many sparks off each other that they could start another San Francisco fire - a four-alarmer fueled by an explosive mix of suspicion, attraction, and love.

Good storyline but …

Is the blasphemy really necessary? It was very disappointing and made the total experience not worth the credit.

Narrator distraction

Narrator uses many voices for same person. Hard to know who is talking. Storyline tends to rehash, like the reader missed something and needs to be retold frequently.

Just before sunrise

Too predictable and interesting enough. Boring would recommend. Too many fluffy words describing a scene made you lose interest.

Very good Entertainment!

Interesting story line with a cast of caricatures that keeps you listening throughout the story.

Just Before Sunrise

Overall, the story was good - not hold your breath exciting - but good. The narrator was okay and and because she had to be quite a few different characters, I gave her three stars. What bothered me was the dog’s name “Otto” which I think is correct but most of the time, it sounded like “Auto” and it drove me crazy. But other than that, the story was good but could have been more detailed. I would call it light reading. And I loved Otto!
