Julie Leto lures you in with red fingernails and the promise of steamy adventure with a heroine very comfortable with her gun. In the Miami heat or enjoying an island breeze in Puerto Rico, she thrills you with Marisela and the lengths she'll go to to see a job done right. A highly recommended read.

This is the first book I read by Julie Leto and it will not be the last. The story about Marisela was exciting and sexy. Every page kept my attention and wanting for more. I hated to see it end. Tonight, I am going to buy the next book which is a continuation of Marisela's life.

I was skeptical that this might be another Evanovich knock-off, but this book takes you into the Cuban-American culture and is more serious and steamy. More spy novel than mystery. Excellent.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.In Tampa at the Club Electric, Marisela Morales runs into her former lover Francisco ¿Frankie¿ Vega. Ten years ago when she was a teen they were an entry, but he spent seven years in prison as an undercover DEA informer, has been out two years, but recently was busted for possession. Unbeknownst to him, Marisela works for AAA-Able Bail Bonds and has for the last seven years as an enforcer. Although he still desires her, Frankie has other problems to deal with so he plans to go home alone. She plans to bring bail jumper Frankie back with her. However, she also has not forgiven Frankie for breaking her heart a decade ago. Before taking him in, Marisela wants vengeance as only a woman scorned can demand even if she still finds she loves the rat. --- Mindful of Stephanie Plum, Marisela is a fine protagonist who has been a terrific enforcer for several years because her boss Alberto Garcia understood a basic tenet of not sending an employee back to home turf especially relatives and friends. Thus her chasing after the man she loved who she believes jilted her brings tension as Marisela proves Alberto is right. Readers will appreciate this strong cat and mouse thriller while wondering throughout just who is the rodent as the teenage love of the lead couple threatens to enflame them as adults, but both believe that there time has passed and have other issues to deal with first. Julie Leto provides a tense character driven suspense laden ¿Bad Girl¿ tale that subgenre fans will read in one sitting.--- Harriet Klausner
