After the brutal murder of her husband, Spencer Huntington turns to her husband's former partner, ex-cop David Delgado, for solace, safety, and love, in a tale of passion and mystery set against... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Slow burn is an excellent read. I have read of all of Heather Graham's bboks and once again, this is top notch. David's love for Spencer is for all time. Graham makes him come to life and he is very realistic. what you would expect of a virile Latin male. I could fall in love with him. Spencer is feisty and has gumption. although it is a bit sad, the ending makes it all worthwhile. If you're into romantic suspense, the villian is not too hard to figure out. it's a definite must read.
Slow Burn Burns Up the Pages!!!

Wow! I haven't read a Graham book in a long time and I thought I would try out one of her contemporaries and boy was I shocked! I had only read her historicals all these years. This was excellent! The characters were so real and complex, I loved them! Especially the male lead of David Delgado. Whew, does he burn up the pages!!!~Spencer Huntington just lost her husband, a police detective, to a brutal murder and now she is faced with the possibilty that the crime wasn't random at all. She needs help and only the trusted help of her husband's best friend and her former lover and ex-cop David Delgado. But, can she do it? She has to. She has to swallow her pride and put the past aside and get to the bottom of this heinous act.David is from the wrong side of the tracks, being a former Cuban refugee as a child and struggling through life with nothing until his best friend Danny Huntington saved him. Danny made his friends David's too and they both fell in love with the same girl, a petite blonde rich girl named Spencer Montgomery. Ten years later, David is faced with his friend's murder and his widow, the only woman David ever loved....Can their long lost love hinder their efforts for the truth or spur them on to the end? A killer awaits...Gritty and very well written. As I would expect from Ms. Graham. David is very real and deep. Spencer is no 'rich girl' to be put on a shelf. These two make a real 'slow burn' on the pages and you will wish for more! The only complaint is that the killer is a little farfetched, but all in all, the story make up for it by far! Definate hot romance to read on a hot summer night even though I read it in March, lol.Tracy Talley~@

David and Spencer are not your average lovers. With a long history and wonderful future, there story goes from Miami to Newport. With a killer thrown in it makes for a wondeful mystery as well! The pereferal characters are wonderful and add much to a great story. Cuddle up with this one on a winters night and before you know it, it will be spring.
