Description As Books Open Season
Be careful what you wish for....
On her thirty-fourth birthday, Daisy Minor decides to make over her entire life. The small-town librarian has had it with her boring clothes, her ordinary looks, and nearly a decade without so much as a date. It's time to get a life—and a sex life. The perennial good girl, Daisy transforms herself into a party girl extraordinaire—dancing the night away at clubs, laughing and flirting with abandon—and she's declared open season for manhunting. But her free-spirited fun turns to shattering danger when she witnesses something she shouldn't—and becomes the target of a killer. Now, before she can meet the one man who can share her life, first she may need him to save it.
Seamlessly blending heart-pounding romance and breathless intrigue, Linda Howard delivers a stylish and provocative novel that absolutely defies readers to put it down.

Overall rating: 4.5 "Miss Daisy" stars!Triggers:Cheating: (view spoiler)[ No (hide spoiler)]Love triangle: (view spoiler)[ No (hide spoiler)]Sex with om/ow: (view spoiler)[ No (hide spoiler)]Intimate pasts: (view spoiler)[ Jack (hero): The hero was married once and the only mention of others was - "He hadn't had a steady relationship since his divorce; he'd had sex, but been careful not to let a routine develop with any of the women." That's it. I wouldn't say he was a manwhore, just casuallyTis' the (Open) Season. There isn't much more to say than what this picture will cover because the word "condom" was used a couple dozen times in this book.There were seventy-two condoms purchased in the production of this story. Maybe she needed to warn Chief Russo to keep a close eye on aisle five at Clud's Pharmacy, because judging by the variety offered here, there were some hinky things going on in Hillsoboro. No, hinky was not a typo. I swore it was kinky the first time I read it, which
4 STARSLoved it! I love how Linda Howard's books always follow the same formula (see below) but still end up different and unique.My rating is based on the following success equation:S = (.5P + .2C) + (.9M x .7F) + H + .3D + (Q x 1.5C x 8L),where S is the success of a novel, P is the build and depth of a plotline, C is the richness of the characterization, M is the the amount of badassness/hotness of a male character (hero), F is the amount of intelligence, independence and strength of the
Fun Stuff! When I picked up this book, I certainly wasn't expecting the story I ended up getting - but I really enjoyed this! Granted it's not as pent up with angst and danger as Shades Of Twilight and After the Night were but this story holds its own. This is probably the most light-hearted Linda Howard book I've read. The suspense was certainly there but it wasn't the kind that tore my nerves to pieces. I kind of liked how she toned down the elements of danger and mystery. The excitement of
~~~ 4 stars~~~When in doubt read Linda Howard! That's my new motto. I loved it.This book was funnier and cuter than the previous ones I've read by this author. I loved both MCs, they had awesome chemistry and their dialogue was funny. No OW/OM drama.Daisy is a 34 year old virgin. Halo!?! (she's not a nun or has a particular reason)A bit far fetched if you ask me but, she was intelligent, independent, naive and a sweetheart. I loved her a lot. Jack, Jack, Jack! Le-sigh. Hot AF Chief Russo!I adore
So I re-read or re-listened to this and I liked it much better first time around. This time I found the heroine to be nice but rude and judgmental. She acted young and naive but then also acted much older than her age too. So I found she didn't get better until the second half of the book which I enjoyed more than the first part. I also thought the guy who gave her the make over was a complete ass for doing what he did to her. So I will leave my stars but here I will say I am giving my reread
