Liza’s Review:

I somehow had never read a book by Lora Leigh until For Maggie's Sake. Yes I know she has been around for years, but for some reason I missed out on her books when they were originally published. I was excited for the opportunity to give her books a try when offered a review copy of For Maggie's Sake. I have to say I very much enjoyed her voice and look forward to reading many more books from her in the future.

For Maggie's Sake hit on all my favorite romantic suspense elements. The mystery wasn't too over the top and kept me engaged to the end. The sex was smoking hot and I loved the chemistry between Maggie and Joe. I'm also a pretty big fan of reunion-type stories, so the fact that Joe and Maggie had a past together was just a bonus for me. I hated they had to go through the years apart, with Maggie marrying another man to find one another again, but honestly felt like they wouldn't have been ready for a relationship then. I hated Maggie ended up marrying a man who was a total ass and only went after her because he knew it would hurt Joe. The fact Grant was supposed to be Joe's best friend made me even angrier.

For Maggie's Sake was a smoking hot romantic suspense book. The mystery of where the evidence was kept me engaged to the end and I loved seeing Maggie and Joe figure out what they needed to do this time to make their relationship work.
