Accident or Murder?



Dance instructor Kaylin Danner has sacrificed her chance to be a Broadway star to help her father raise her younger sisters in Florida. When her father's laboratory blows sky high and his priceless formula for a revolutionary new fuel disappears, Kaylin is left with nothing but her father's business partner Sawyer Scott and a cache of deadly trouble.

When the Danner family home is vandalized and her sisters are threatened, Kaylin and Sawyer team up to unmask the killer terrorizing her family. Sawyer's bent on pursuing both Kaylin and the missing formula, but Kaylin fights the attraction, believing Sawyer's a dreamer like her father--and in her experience, dreamers end up dead.





Customer Reviews
User popularity level: out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Romantic suspense
Susan Kearney's latest book has moved away from the paranormal romance genre in which she has recently been writing to a more apparently down-to-earth set of characters. We are introduced to three sisters, Kaylin, Becca and Lia Danner, who have to come to terms with the death of their scientist/chemist father at the beginning of the book. Everyone think the father's death is an accident but it soon becomes apparent that there may be something more sinister going on and that people may be trying to find his formula for biodiesel.

Sawyer Scott was Dr Danner's research partner and he works with Kaylin to try to investigate who may have caused the accident that killed Dr Danner. As Kaylin and Sawyer work closely together and as they learn about each other their attraction grows; however, with kidnapping and other danger to the family, is there any chance for a future for them, especially as Kaylin doesn't want to marry someone like her father and instead wants to go to New York to dance.

This story was OK with some moments of suspense and a varied cast of characters. However it was also rather unbelievable at many times with credulity stretched to breaking point as we try to go along with the plot. Some aspects of characterisation were rather sparse, such as Becca's boyfriend Shadee, and I was never entirely sure who he was or exactly what he did within the story, and the arrival of the girls' grandmother into the story was rather skimmed over. This was a reasonable read but the unlikelihood of the plot in places rather spoilt it for me and although hero and heroine were engaging people I never entirely entered the world of the story to fully appreciate them.

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - exciting timely romantic suspense thriller
When her mom died four years ago, the oldest daughter Kaylin Danner gave up her dream of dancing on Broadway to help her dad Dr. Henry Danner raise her younger sisters in Tampa, Florida. Now twenty-four years old and a bit old to be starting on stage, the ballet dance instructor plans to take a chance. However fate intervenes when her dad's lab explodes with him inside.

Soon afterward, someone breaks and enters into the family home vandalizing the place in search of something. Kaylin assumes it is her father's scientific work involving bio-diesel fuel. She turns to her father's business partner, Sawyer Scott to help her keep her siblings safe. However, though ruthless adversaries want the formula so they kidnap Kaylin's sister.

Even before the lab explosion and subsequent inferno, readers will feel the heat between Kaylin and her father's younger partner Sawyer, which sets the tempo for an exciting timely romantic suspense thriller. The fast-paced story line never slows down as ruthless people want to possess at any human cost the bio-diesel fuel formula the late Dr. Danner and Dr. Scott were working on. The support cast enhances the strong romantic thriller as Susan Kearney turns up the Florida summer heat with this exhilarating fiery tale.
