moreAffairs of the heart can be lethal in New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey's latest sensual, thrilling novel.
As a low-level enforcer in Los Angeles, Ken Swift knows danger, but nowhere does he feel it more than in his tangled romances. Divorced from one woman, in love with another...
When Margaux meets up with her father Ken Swift to demand he give her fifty thousand dollars, because we know how Eric Jerome Dickey writes, we KNOW there is more to this than meets the eye. Ken Swift and his partner Jake Ellis have an assignment from the boss San Bernardino to talk with Pasadena and if it doesn’t go well the consequences could be deadly.
From the master of intrigue, we have another page turner that I wish I could say I loved because I really do enjoy most of EJD’s work. But I must say, these last two offerings from him have left me trying to figure out what direction he is trying to go in because, in place of books like he wrote at the beginning of his career, we are getting a lot of useless dialogue that I am not enjoying when I read his books. I want the strong character-driven books he wrote when he started out. These books for me concentrate on current events and are written more like a blog in place of the page-turners I really enjoyed.
With that said, I REALLY liked the San Bernardino character and I hope to see more about that character in the future. Those who enjoy EJD will still enjoy this work by him but I prefer the EJD who I know can write the page-turners I love. I do recommend you buy and read this work but hopefully, I can see the old EJD in future books.
