About this audiobook

New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller turns up the heat in this sizzling tale of suspense and re-kindled passions set against the blazing skies of Arizona's lush desert landscape -- where a killer is determined to exact his revenge. When hard-working attorney Clare Westbrook learns that her ambulance-chasing boss has been murdered, she's shocked -- but not exactly surprised. Harvey Kredd was known for his less-than-ethical business dealings, and even his acts of generosity were tinged with greed; Clare, working at Kredd and Associates to pay off the law school loan Harvey had granted her several years before, knows she's got no choice: indentured servitude, twenty-first-century style. But Harvey's death doesn't let Clare out of her contract with the firm; instead it brings her a new, odious multimillionaire client, and Tony Sonterra, homicide detective and local heartthrob, who's not above using a murder investigation to get back into Clare's life. Jump-starting her affair with Tony is the last thing Clare needs -- she's got enough on her plate raising her niece, Emma, without throwing a bull-headed cop into the mix. Then Clare gets the news that may convince her Tony is exactly what she needs: Emma's father has been released from prison, and he's intent on seeing his daughter. Though she could never persuade the police to believe her, Clare is convinced that James Arren murdered her sister. Clare is determined to find evidence that will put James Arren away for good, but Tony is just as determined to keep her safe, after another murder -- clearly meant to target Clare -- rocks the law firm. With no real leads, too many suspects, and a growing chain of menacing violence, Clare finds that teaming up with the devil she knows is her only option -- one that's just too attractive to resist. With the same rich storytelling style that has captivated readers worldwide, Linda Lael Miller delivers a page-turning blend of heated passion and captivating suspense.

    Clare Westbrook has been working in the law firm of Kredd and Associates in order to pay off the debt owed to Harvey Kredd for helping pay her law school bills. Harvey's practices are less than ethical, and even though Clare doesn't believe in the way he conducts his business, he continues to hold the money she owes him over her head. When Harvey is killed, Clare thinks she may be out of the woods, but instead, she is coerced into taking the malpractice case of a multimillionaire plastic surgeon. Unfortunately, Harvey isn't the only death in Clare's life and suddenly it seems like she and her niece, Emma, may be in danger too, so reluctantly, Clare calls on Detective Tony Sonterra, her on-again, off-again lover, to help her figure out who might be after her.Don't Look Now is the first book in the Look Trilogy and is a very layered romantic suspense/mystery. The book is written in first person POV, so the character of Clare is well developed, but the other characters in the story don't get nearly enough backstory. Although, at times, the number of characters and clues makes it difficult to follow, this mystery is filled with layer upon layer of twists and turns right up to the end of the story. Even though the book only contains 296 pages, it is jam-packed with plot and characters. Overall, Don't Look Now is a great beginning to this trilogy about the continuing lives and romance of Clare and Tony.

    I don't know why they called this a romantic suspense thriller; it was a suspense thriller with some sex sporadically thrown in, there was no romance. Attorney Clare works for a firm that paid for her law school then forced her to defend the guilty rich. Old boyfriend Sonterra is a detective. I struggled through half then skimmed last chapter.

    The chemistry between Tony and Clare is what I enjoyed most in this book. There were several scenes between the two characters like the excerpt I’ve included above. They just cracked me up. This is the first time I’ve read anything by Linda Lael Miller. Don’t Look Now is the first in the Clare Westbrook Series. I’ll continue with the rest of the series. I found the first installment to be entertaining enough. It was a very fast read. I finished it in less than a day. I did find that there was a little too much going on with the plot. It’s a little unbelievable that so much could happen in one person’s life over such a short period of time. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series, Never Look Back.
