Graham's flawed contemporary romance linking a reverse diamond thief with an FBI agent isn't the gem it could be. Stilted dialogue and a slender premise doom what might have been a lovely affair between criminal psychologist Kieran Finnegan and FBI Agent Craig Frasier. When Kieran's brother Danny, the youngest co-owner of the Finnegan siblings' pub, boosts a wildly expensive diamond as a favor for a friend, Kieran decides to return it. In the midst of the un-boosting, a gang of jewel thieves enters the store, takes Kieran hostage, and flees the scene. The FBI, under Frasier's lead, come hot on their heels. In a crazy twist of fate Kieran saves Craig's life and ends up becoming a target for another, murderous, gang of jewel thieves who believe she knows too much. Naturally, love blooms even while she worries he'll discover the real reason she was in the store in the first place. This is not one of Graham's best.
Starred review from April 15, 2016
Although Kieran Finnegan's real job is as a criminal psychologist, she often helps out at her family's Irish pub, a lower Manhattan fixture that she now owns with her three brothers. Finnegan's is a warm, friendly place that welcomes all comers--until a rash of diamond heists and their deadly copycat thefts bring Kieran and FBI agent Craig Frasier together in a bewildering search that seems to lead right back to the bar, raising unwanted suspicions. A savvy, observant heroine with an unknown murderer on her trail and an intuitive G-man discover romance as well as danger as they track down a band of clever killers. Enriched by authentic family concerns and vivid descriptions, this tale will make fans yearn for a Finnegan's of their own. VERDICT Intricate, fast-paced, and intense, this riveting thriller blends romance and suspense in perfect combination and keeps readers guessing and the tension taut until the very end. Graham (Bougainvillea) lives in southern Florida.
