Well written: engaging plot, romance, likeable main characters, and quick pace., December 19, 2010

With so many romantic suspense books, one usually needs to suspend disbelief to a high degree over so many jarring coincidences and improbable or convoluted plot points, but this was relatively a non-issue for me with this book. We are told who the villain is very early on, so there weren't really any big twists or surprises here, but the story still kept my attention until the very last page! I always wanted to see how Julia and Robin's relationship would unfold and how justice for Julia's brother would be served.

I read the first eight chapters in one sitting, and the remainder of the book in the second sitting the next day, straight through (except for a short incoming phone call break) due to the easy story telling/writing flow and definite reading escapism factor. The main characters had the right blend of strong and vulnerable and were plausible and relatable. I think the author created two of the more realistic main characters I've read in a while in this genre with regard to their thoughts, emotions, insecurities, and the relationship pace and development. I especially liked that the story continued for a chapter or two after the "we-got-the-bad-guy" part of the story concluded.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes their romances with an actual story, a little suspense and action, and less page-after-page of repetitive erotica type drooling, angst, and sex. Kindle formatting was excellent and contained only a few typos

First, let me start off by saying that this was the first book i've read by this aurthor. The reviews looked promising so I decided to give it a try. Plus it was only .99 cents.
And I'm SO glad I did get it, worth every penny and more.
The lead charactors are nicely developed and very well rounded. You cant help but love them and keep turning the pages to see where everything is going to go!

MIDNIGHT REFLECTIONS is about a woman named Julia coming to LA after learning her brother, Brian, was put in a coma when he was "supposedly" mugged.
He had been working as a ghost worker for a very powerful man.
He dies soon after in the hospital in suspicious circumstance-- but not before Julia hears his cryptic last words!
Did he know something that got him killed, and if so, what? Julia vows to investigate the truth of what happened by retracing his footsteps and finishing the book her brother had been writing for this very weathly and powerful.. and creep movie mongrul. Now she is his ghost writer and finishing what her brother started.
With the help of Robin, whom Julia believes to be a mechanic, she hires him to help her, not knowing who to trust. But Robin is much more than he appears to be...and he has his own motives at first.
Will the bad guys get caught or will they both end up the next targets?

It's full of suspence that will keep you reading til its finished, and i still didnt want it to end!
Not to mention the Romantic suspence between Julia and Robin is not forced like in many books. It actually enhances the story line and give the book more depth, not taking away from the overall plot.

You can't help but to cheering on Robin and Julia at the same time you are gripping the pages for the bad guys to get caught!

All in all, this reader found this book great for a new aurthor and if you are looking for a fast paced read that holds your interesting from begining to end, M.R. will not dissappoint!

Midnight Reflections is highly recommended for those who are into either and/or both mystery suspense and romanice suspence. They are a great blend in this book.

Well done, Pamela M. Richter! Can't wait for the next one. This reader would love to read more about Robin and Julia!
