Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
IN HER SIZZLING DEBUT, KARIN TABKE SETS THE SCENE WITH HARD-HITTING COPS, A SCANDALOUS CRIME, AND UNINHIBITED PASSION THAT CAN'T BE DENIED....

Straight-laced, by-the-book police officer Philamina Zorn has always lived by the letter of the law -- that is, until she is assigned to work with Lieutenant Ty Jamerson, a tough-as-nails, arrogantly handsome cop who knows exactly how to press her buttons. Staking out Klub Kashmir, the Bay Area's hottest gentleman's club, Phil and Ty go undercover to bait the kidnapper of three young women -- including two strippers from the club -- while trying to keep their clashing personalities at bay. Baring more than just her inhibitions, Phil dons a barely there ensemble, straps on stilettos, and reveals her feisty side as Kat, a seductively sexy cocktail waitress who lets her luscious curves do the talking. Not only is she determined to expose a criminal but she has vowed to show her hot-headed lieutenant, a.k.a. floor manager of Klub Kashmir, that she's no shrinking violet.

As Phil and Ty become more deeply entrenched in the sordid underground world of exotic dancing, where money means everything and passions run wild, flaring tension becomes uncontrollable lust. It's all they can do not to surrender to desire -- a hunger that intensifies with each playful encounter. Meanwhile, a cold-blooded criminal is hiding in the shadows -- and a devastating secret that, if revealed, could shake Phil to her core.

Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - TERRIBLE BOOK
I CAN ONLY SAY, THEY BOOK WAS TERRIBLE. THE LANGUAGE ALONE TURNED ME AGAINST THE BOOK. I REALLY DISLIKED THIS BOOK.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Ok Read
The book was ok. What I did not like about the book was how Phil kept trying to prove herself by stripping and doing things she wouldnt if it hadnt been for ty pushing her and underestimating her. Second, Ty was to stubborn to realize his feelings for her. And the romance is slow, it does not catch up until the last several chapters.

Phil was not a desperate heroine though. Ty was just so stubborn being a hard behind.

I would recommend it, buy it used or rent from the library. I am reading Skin now and it is much more developed in characters, setting and plot. Not to say the book is not developed, it just need better understanding and development.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - My best read for 2007 so far!
I find it hard to believe this is Ms Tabke's very first published novel-length story. It's sophisticated, riveting and oh-so-erotic though it's a romance, not erotica. I've waited so long for a contemporary erotic suspense such as this - ie, no vampires, werewolves, psychics or aliens. Just plain, pure contemporary romantic suspense.

What makes Good Girl Gone Bad different from the usual romantic suspense fare is that it has a satisfying dose of scorching hot sex scenes - something the mainstream romantic suspense lack - yet it's so well-balanced and fits into the plot. Being a guzzler of erotic romances these days, I am, however, not a paranormal fan and most of the erotic romances that have suspense and action are paranormals. When I chanced on Good Girl Gone Bad, I took the leap and bought the tradeback (too expensive to be my regular purchase format) and I am just blown away by this book!

As soon as I finished reading the excerpt to Karin's subsequent book, Skin, I had to place an order but, thankfully, checked my TBR pile and to my delight, there it was in the pile! Now I can't wait to start on Reece's story and if you read GGGB, you'll be buying Skin, too!

The romance between Tyler and Phil is believable and I found myself aching to see Tyler finally give in enough to let their romance develop instead of insisting it was only sex. While GGGB gave me my pre-requisite HEA, it's not your typical romance HEA. It's a HFN - Happy For Now. While I did miss my formulaic romance HEA, it is a happy end to a wonderful story and there is absolutely no doubt in the reader's mind that Tyler is deeply in love with Phil.

Still, I'm hoping that the second book, Skin, which features Tyler's yummy colleague, Reece, will have Tyler and Phil making appearances and I might even have Tyler finally saying those Three Little Words to Phil that he refuses to say to her in GGGB.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Great Mix
This was one of the best books I have read. I am a grad student that reads alot, so I am usually not too excited about reading anything I don't have to, but I could not put this book down. My husband had to literally hide it from me so that I would do my school work. It had a great storyline with twists and turns and some very passionate sex.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome Book
I loved this book. I would totally recommend it to anyone who wants a little romance, a little spice and a great story polt all wrapped up into one. Totally go out and read this book yesterday you won't regret it!!!!!!
