I have sooooo many books! I have a ton of print books and probably even more e-books. The Book Spotlight feature that I post every Saturday is a way for me to clear my shelves and to share some of the books I have. And to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy them.
This is another book that my daughter weeded from her collection. I think I may have read some of Julie's books way back when, but I have not read any of this series. Number 13 in this series is due out in 2016. She is a very popular, prolific author.
Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!
Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker by Julie GarwoodSeries: Buchanan-Renard #1
Hardcover, 432 pages
Published July 1st 2000 by Atria
Bless me father, for I will sin....
In the still shadows of the confessional, a madman tauntingly reveals his plan for a murder he is going to commit, pulling Father Thomas Madden into a twisted game by disclosing his next intended victim: Tom's sister, Laurant. In a frantic race to protect her, Tom calls upon his best friend, elite FBI agent Nick Buchanan, to track the predator who is closing in on Laurant. Now, as an electrifying attraction grows between Laurant and Nick, so does the danger -- and one false move will cost both of them everything that matters.
Let New York Times bestselling author Julie Garwood take you on a thrilling excursion into the soaring heights -- and the darkest impulses -- of the human heart.
About the author
Born and raised in Kansas City, MO, Ms. Garwood attributes much of her success to growing up in a large family of Irish heritage. "The Irish are great storytellers who relish getting all of the details and nuances of every situation. Add in the fact that I was the sixth of seven children. Early in life, I learned that self expression had to be forceful, imaginative, and quick," says Ms. Garwood.
She began her writing career when the youngest of her three children entered school. After the publications of two young-adult books, she turned her talents to historical fiction. Her first novel, Gentle Warrior, was published by Pocket Books in 1985. Since then, she has branched into other genres including contemporary romantic suspense. Today, her name appears regularly on the bestseller lists of every major publication in the country, and her books are translated into dozens of languages around the world. Her bestselling novel For the Roses was adapted for the Hallmark Hall of Fame television movie Rose Hill.
Ms. Garwood lives in Leawood, KS and is currently working on her next novel.

We don't get trick-or-treaters where we live, so we might be eating our own candy!
ReplyDeleteThat could be a good thing, right? Hehehe.
DeleteWe live out in the country, so we don't get Trick or Treaters. I always go to the stores, the day after, and get the candy at a discount. I just love chocolate candy...cakes, cupcakes, puddings, ice cream, donuts, etc.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great plan to me!
DeleteStaying up late watching scary movies on TV.
ReplyDeleteoooo - sounds fun, maybe. Depends on which movies. :)
DeleteGoing out Trick or Treating with my grandkids.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome, Rita. It is so much fun with little ones. Have fun!
DeleteThis Halloween I will be handing out candy! Yay! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'll be doing although we won't get many. But then --- more candy for me!
DeleteI own it so I'm not entering but I just wanted to say that I loved reading this series. :)
ReplyDeleteI will be here handing out candy to our trick-or-treaters. We still live in a small enough town that it's safe for the children to go door to door. I love Halloween. :)
ReplyDeleteWe went to see a showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
