Amazon Category:  Mystery/Suspense Publisher: Amber Quill Press ISBN-10:  1592799906 Type: Fiction Pages: 300 Copyright: Mar 1 2000 Snake Gallego and LeAnne McVeigh must put their personal differences aside to catch a killer. Neither counted on the attraction that ensues. From the Back Cover: Marcus “Snake” Gallego lives in the fast lane. Play hard, ride fast, die young. But nothing seems to touch him, not until his faithless wife turns up dead, and a pretty little detective slams his head against a bar, cuffing his hands behind his back. LeAnne McVeigh has a murderer to catch and “Snake” is a prime suspect according to her fiancé, the County prosecutor. She fights her growing attraction to the biker, but the pull is too strong to ignore and more than that, he proves to be her friend in adversity. Excerpt He grinned sinfully "I don't think what just occurred would fall under the category of funny business. I don't know about you, but the thought of screwing you heats my blood, not tickles my funny bone." "Do you have to be so crude? Screwing?" Her gaze widened. "Is that what you'd call it?" "What would you call it, LeAnne?" He advanced on her until they were mere inches apart again. His hot breath spanned her cheeks. She would be lying if she said she did not desire this man. The juncture of her thighs still throbbed from his touch. "Making love?" he whispered softly. "It's a more civilized way of putting it," she said, shifting her stance. "There's nothing civilized about what I'd like to do with you. Besides, making love means there is love involved. Am I right?" She might have laughed had he not been so serious. Instead, she remained silent. "You planning on falling in love with me, Detective?" "No," she stated, hoping she was never that unwise. "Then it's screwing."

Very Highly Recommended

Control, power, lust, deceit-this book has it all and more. KISS OF DECEIT, Patricia Rasey's second full-length novel is gritty, raunchy and a damn good read.

Powerfully written characters, morally challenging situations and emotionally twisting plots have become a trademark of Patricia Rasey's writing. Once started, this book is nearly impossible to put down. If the good ol' whodunit mystery doesn't snare your interest, the forbidden sexual attraction between Snake and LeAnne will. With enough detail to run the imagination screen inside your head, KISS OF DECEIT is a definite must-read!

Ten stars!

I'm still reeling from this one! Author, Pat Rasey, has penned one extraordinary twisting, turning roller-coaster-of-a-ride romantic suspense story!

The name of the game is murder. Cold. Premeditated. Brutal...Rasey weaves a whole host of intriguing characters throughout her story. Creating the challenge of trying to guess who is really guilty and who is innocent. And just about the time you think you have it, she throws in a hairpin curve and you're right back where you started. I read this book in one sitting, unable to tear myself from its clenches. And I got to the end thinking, all was right with the world once more, the good guy wins, the bad guys loses, the lovers live happily ever after. Then Rasey, threw in a curve~

Powerful, Sizzling and Taunting. This is a volatile read!!!
