Never Tell

I enjoyed this romantic suspense by Stacey Abrams. Being a psychology major with an interest in true crime and abnormal psychology, I particularly enjoyed the psychological aspects of the crime. While categorized as a romance, I found it was a bit more weighted in the suspense aspect of the story, and that worked out well for me. This is the first book I've read by Stacey Abrams - I was admittedly drawn to check out the book due to her high profile reputation politically, and was pleasantly surprised at her talent as an author as well.

Fascinating romantic suspense! Wow, what a twisty rollercoaster of a story! Erin and Gabriel have to work together to solve a murder mystery, and their working relationship quickly turns into so much more. There were quite a few surprises along the way, and I loved every bit of the ride. These are intelligent characters who have been through a lot, and I really appreciated the intensity and attention to detail that kept the investigation intriguing from start to finish. Their HEA was simple and perfect for the two of them. This will appeal to readers of crime fiction as well as romance readers. If you love them both together, you don't want to miss this one. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
