Almost to the End! Smashcut!

I decided I wanted a little color to my post. I am almost finished with the book and we now know who committed the murder and the whys. Now the conclusion is coming to see if the attorney can prove someones innocence and save the day. I wonder how they are going to do that? Sandra Brown has written Creighton character wonderfully. He is in a little bubble with his obsession with  movies. It's like he is living in a movie. All the research she had to do, to find the perfect movies  and movie quotes. Nice Job Sandra! Can't wait to finish the book. Hopefully I can read the rest today.

Suspenseful!

Wow, wow, wow...I am still chugging along reading Smashcut. I love the way Sandra Brown wrote Creighton's character. He is slimy, sneaky, and psychotic. Then intertwine it with his movie obsession. He is a fictional character and I would like to pummel him most of the time because of his obnoxious behavior. I can't imagine a grown man in real life acting the way he does. On to the mystery man Billy Duke. Is he Julies ex husband, or did Creighton hire him? Maybe Julie hired him? I still haven't gotten far enough in the book to know who is the culprit. I did just end the chapter which shows how obsessive Creighton is and that Julie might be more legit than we think. I assumed I would be able to read more since the kids were out of school for the summer, but I was wrong. I should of had this book read before now, especially since it's good. We have been watching more movies than usual. Hopefully I can get more read tonight. I really want to know who killed Paul!

Smashcut by Sandra Brown

  I'm on Chapter 12 of Smashcut. Sandra Brown does not disappoint.  It's a romantic, murder mystery novel all in one. Creighton Wheeler is a class act snobby arrogant rich kid (man). Julie Rutledge is a mourning girlfriend that watched her rich boyfriend get murdered in cold blood. Did either one of these suspects set up Paul Wheeler to get murdered? We don't know, they both have alibis. Of course Julie was there, but does that mean she didn't plan out the murder?  Creighton says he didn't do it, but did he? Could it be someone else? Who knows! I'm only on Chapter 12. Some new evidence came along in Chap 11 and now it's heating up. I hope the rest of the book is as good and intense as the first few chapters. Oh and the criminal lawyer Derek Mitchell sounds pretty darn hot!

End one book and begin another

       I finished the Stone Barrington series I was reading. It got better by the end, but it was kind of a boring book. I'm not sure if the reason was because I went from Fifty Shades to a crime book. It could be that it took me longer to finish. I was busy with end of year school activities with the boys.

         I just started a Sandra Brown book. I always like her books. My very first romance novel was Sandra Brown Where's There Smoke. I had to look it up to make sure it was the right title. I guess it's listed as a suspense/ thriller. While on her website looking up the title, I realized I have read quite a few of her books. I was scanning the list and thinking I have read that, I have read that, so on and so on. The book I'm reading now is Smash Cut. It's also a suspense thriller/romance novel. Its a murder mystery book. It does start out with action.
