To Die For (Blair Mallory Series #1)

An Ultimate in the Romance Genre

Business savvy club own Blair Mallory finds herself in trouble after witnessing a murder in her parking lot. The killer has no way of knowing that Blaire didn't see his face, and therefore she needs police protection.

Having had an intense but short relationship with Blair years ago, when Lt. Wyatt Bloodworth hears that Blair's club is the crime scene of a murder he rushes to the scene to take over. After serious reflection on walking way from her once, Wyatt is game on. Blair? Not so much. Wyatt takes the challenge head on using their intense chemistry-that Blair scowls at throughout the book-to his advantage. It's testosterone verses estrogen, and there is no battle of the sexes like Blair Mallory and Wyatt Bloodsworth.

Watching these two compromise, rebuild trust, and learn how to understand each other is the best part of this story. Blair is full of wit, charm, and was taught by her momma that when a man comes back, he does it crawling. Wyatt is masculine, determined, protective and sensitive when it counts. It's impossible not to love this couple, particularly Blair. She's pure, cheerleading fluff. An All-American girl with a no nonsense attitude, and confidence to kill for. A pink hammer? Of course, tools don't have to be ugly. A cheerleader? Hard work, dangerous, and can you say college scholarship?

You simply cannot go wrong with this book. It's light. It's sexy. It's out right FUN.

OH NO!

Linda Howard has always been my number one favorite author. Unfortunately, not this time. I dislike books written in the first person. 'Blair Mallory' IS the biggest ditz since 'Clueless'. Usually I can't put her books down. This one I can't seem to keep in hand. I sincerely hope all future books live up to the usual standard.

A Quick Read

I'm a huge Linda Howard fan and enjoyed this book; however, the suspense part of the plot is a little thin and because it's told in the first person, we don't really know the hero as well. A nice, easy read but I'm eagerly awaiting her next hardback.

To Die For

I struggled through this book and I'm not sure it was worth the effort. My bookshelves are clogged with Linda Howard books, but I've been disappointed with the last two I've read--To Die For and Kiss Me. Hopefully the next release will redeem her.

Great Read

I was surprised and dismayed when I saw that this book was written in first person. I usually hate books that use this narritive form but I gave the book a try because I usually love Linda Howard's books and trust me it was great! The chemistry between the main characters was great and I laughed several times out loud at some of the crazy dialouge between the two. The story line was kinda predictable but the characters more than made up for it. I would recommend this book to everyone!

Loved this book!

Loved this book!

I couldn't put down!

I enjoyed this book so much. Blair was so funny. I just couldn't believe the things she said and did. I loved it.

a must read

I love to read Linda Howard, her books are usually serious mystery and romance. I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 books of the Blair Mallory series . (2nd book is Drop Dead Gorgeous). Mystery, romance and hilarity. What a combo! Enjoy......

A fun read

A fun read that got a few laughs out of me. She writes a lighthearted mystery and throws in some humor and a bit of steamy romance. I love this author though.

New Side to LH!

Laughed out loud! It was a nice change of pace from her darker or more intense suspense novels. Lighthearted romantic comedies are usually not my cup of tea, but I really enjoyed this one. LH, you are one talented lady!

VERY ROMANTIC

I was very scared to read this book considering some of the bad reviews from other customers...but I love Romance book where it deals with some kind of detective work so I went ahead and bought it.....and am I glad I did....it was one of the most romantic books ever...the main couple is so cute and the banter between them as well as the chemistry is amazing...ok yes the main character is a little dumb at times...but the love story makes up for it....trust me and give it a chance. This was my first Howard book and won't be my last!!!

Love this side of Howard.

Smart fun sexy ride that gets me every time.

Funny but readers voice was shrill, old sounding and fake southern accent

Very different from authors other books. Very entertaining. I'd like her to continue the series with pre-quel on Blairs mom and books on Blairs sisters. Do not like the voice of the audiobook reader for this book. Accent is fake, shrill and has the character of an older woman.

Surprisingly Hilarious

I did not expect to like this book, for several reasons. The main two were that I don't like books written in first person, and I don't like southern, blonde, self-centered, women as the heroine. (I get enough of that last one in real life.)This book really surprised me though. It was so good that I started the book a 9:30 pm and finished it at 3:15 am. I couldn't put it down, and I also couldn't stop laughing. It was one of the funniest suspense novels I've ever read, and true to the genre, it was also chock full of romance. I would definitly reccommend this book to anyone, and I also reccommend Mr. Perfect, another great book by Mrs. Howard. Those are the only two I have read by her so far, but if the rest are this good, then Mrs. Howard is going to be a winner in my book!

The Chick Is Off the Wall

This chick is everything she says she is in the first chapter or more. You will love her or you will hate her. And she will will remind you of someone you actually know. I had to love her because I know someone un-apologetically just like her. And the guy is OK too.

I loved this book

I could not put this book down. One thing that I liked about this book is that the main character was a very strong independant women. The plot was very good. It kept you entertained. I have read it several times over again. It's too bad there aren't more Wyatts around. I also really liked the follow up book Drop Dead Gorgious. I hope that Linda Howard decides to write more about these characters in the future.

A FUN READ

A REALLY CUTE BOOK. I LOVED WHAT A BLONDE BLAIR IS. THIS BOOK CAN MAKE YOU LAUGH OUT LOUD. MY ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT IS THAT THE AUTHOR DIDN'T INCLUDE THE ACTUAL RECIPE FOR THE BREAD PUDDING!

Loved it

I loved this book...very easy reading and kept my attention until I was finished.

Very Entertaining!

I absolutely loved this book! I wasn't sure that I liked it being told in the first person, but once I got used to it wasn't bad. I read it in 2 days because I just couldn't put it down. I laughed so much. Blair was absolutely hilarious and Wyatt was a good match for her. Another hot guy, Linda is great at writing them! I can't wait to read the sequel Drop Dead Gorgeous, just as soon as I can get my hands on it.

A whole lot of Fun

This book was just light hearted fun. I loved the main characters. Blair is funny and likable. I love that Linda Howard is not afraid to try something new.
