CLOSE ENOUGH TO TOUCH

He's their secret admirer, wooing them with phone calls, love letters, and special gifts. From a distance, he admires them. Desires them. Despises them. And when he gets close enough, he kills them all.

CLOSE ENOUGH TO KISS

Adams County, Alabama, is a small, friendly place where everyone knows each otherâ??but not well enough, it seems, because Sheriff Bernie Granger has a serial killer on her hands, a total psycho who stalks, woos, kidnaps and kills his victims. It's Bernie's first big case, a chance for her to prove herself to her new boss, former Memphis police detective Jim Norton, but it won't be easy. This killer is uncannily smart. It's as if he knows what Bernie's thinking. And his next move is more than shockingâ??it's chillingly personal.

CLOSE ENOUGH TO KILL

A terrifying game is underway. A desperate hunt has begun. And a rookie sheriff is determined to stop a killer at all costs. But is she getting nearer to catching him or drawing far too close to his deadly flame… (mehr)

This is book 2 of the Griffin Powell series. This one has a serial killer who thinks that each of his victims are his lovers...he courts them as a secret admirer before letting them know who he is.

This book is very well written and kept me turning the pages and wanting to see how the police would figure out who the killer was and how they captured him. My only negative things is that although it is part of the Griffin Powell series you do not hear about Griffin until the book is over half done and then only very briefly. Other then that it was very good and I ended up staying up late (11:00pm) a couple of nights reading because I couldn't put it down.

LOVED IT! The # of pages to this book made me think it would last a while...Nope! Good, fast read. Romance, suspense, and intrigue - perfect combo =o) ( )

I have to admit I did like Sherrif Bernie Granger. She has problems, her father was Sherrif and his legacy is hard to break (add to it that he's still alive and her staff often look to him for leadership if he's around); she trying to break in a new officer, Jim Norton, who has moved to the area to be closer to his son; her sister who is chasing every guy in town and her mother's constant harping about the extra 20 pounds she's carrying.

Her small town changes when suddenly theres a serial killer in their midst, a man who seems to be killing a certain kind of woman, cruely and terribly. Making their lives a misery before eventualy killing them and moving on to the next with gifts and notes before kidnapping them.

I enjoyed the read, sad to see that the author is dead. I look forward to reading more by her but I'm sad that when I'm finished with them there will be no more. The characters appealed to me and I found them believable and fairly true-to-life ( )
