Product Description
Futuristic cop Eve Dallas is back on the job. This time it’s Christmas in New York, and all the lonely hearts are simple pickings for a serial killer spreading death through a dating service.Amazon.com Review
In the seventh of J.D. Robb’s futuristic romance thrillers, NYPD Lieutenant Eve Dallas is on the trail of a serial killer terrorizing the city during the holidays. The only link between the victims–all are patrons of an exclusive dating service, Personally Yours. Effective with her aide Officer Peabody, Peabody’s nemesis Ian McNab, and her own intriguing spouse, Roarke, Eve uncovers secrets that link the victims: secrets that occupy both the owners and the clients of Personally Yours and which might be worth killing for. Whether she’s writing as Nora Roberts or as J.D. Robb, Roberts weaves a taut and powerful tale with lush sensuality and masterful characterization. This murder mystery combines fundamentals of romance, science fiction, and police procedural genres in an entertaining mix that will keep readers turning the pages. –Lisa Wanttaja

Sorry to be the bearer of terrible news, but this one stinks!
It is set in the future: what a fantastic opportunity for adding an appealing element and yet nothing is made of it! The characters are flat: the protagonist is not the least bit likeable. Her spouse seems to function merely as her sex toy as their relationship seems to consist of nothing but panting at the sight of him. Otherwise, she is driven, mean, abrasive–not the kind of person you would want to meet.
The mystery itself lacks any kind of suspense and is utterly predictable.
Take it from an avid mystery reader: you’ll be hard pushed to find anything more ridiculous, predictable and trashy anywhere. Strictly bottom of the barrel.

This has to be one of the worst books I have ever read. I delight in all types of books and was looking for something light and entertaining as a break from heavier reading. The characters were really unbelievable and shallow. The book was supposed to be a mix of sci-fi, suspense, and romance. The sci-fi part was fun, I’ll admit. The suspense consisted of a mediocre crime plot, that was very graphic and disturbing in its description. The romance was nonexistent, unless you consider gratuitous sex scenes romantic. I know that Nora Roberts is known for the “steamy sex scenes” in her books, but these scenes were just stuck in there for the sake of their steaminess. They had no tie to the tale whatsoever. The relationship between the protagonist and her spouse was based only on sex. What made this especially unbelievable was the fact that the main character was a survivor of abuse/incest. I’m no practiced, but you’d reflect somebody with this type of background would have a few issues regarding sex/intimacy. I just thought the book was dreadful. Flat characters, silly predictable mystery. I left it on the train and feel sorry for the poor soul who picks it up.

I don’t know why this book keeps getting positive review, maybe they’re all loyal fans of J.D Robb. I’m not going to wrtite any negatives about the leader because I haven’t read her additional books, but so far this one is not so special. Not very orginal and clever.

For persons looking to read an orginal and clever book this wouldn’t be the one.

I find this book to be appealing, and captivating. All of the characters are evolving and maturing. I like this series and l;ook forwards to reading the next.
