Editorial Reviews

Trust Me Once by Jan Coffey marks the contemporary romance debut of the writing team of Jim and Nikoo McGoldrick, who also write award-winning historical romances as May McGoldrick. Life is full of surprises, but some lives are definitely more full than others. When Sarah Rand returns home from vacation, she's surprised to discover she's a dead woman. Somehow, while she was abroad, her best friend was murdered, and the body was mistakenly identified as hers. Only the killer knows that Sarah is still alive and, if he has anything to say about it, she won't remain so for very much longer. To make matters worse, Sarah's mentor, a local judge, has been charged with her murder, the cops are not to be trusted, and some of the most powerful people in Newport are involved in the cover up. The only person she can turn to is Owen Dean -- a man whose only qualifications as hero come from his role on a hit TV cop show. It isn't easy for Sarah to trust a virtual stranger, even one who offers help when she so desperately needs it -- especially when she learns the man has secrets of his own. Jan Coffey's debut features tight plotting, hot action, and enough twists to keep Sarah and Owen running...right into each other's arms.
