MY REVIEW

Romance and suspense mix together in Rebecca York’s Private Affair. Olivia, a successful model, has come home for her high school reunion she is taken aback when her high school friend is murdered. After several other people are killed with accidents, and Olivia hires Max Lyon from Rockfort Security to protect her and figure out what is going on. The only problem is the answer is buried in the secrets of a long ago past best left alone.

I liked the book overall, the suspense was pretty good, and I was definitely surprised to learn what had gone on years ago that was impacting the future. Max was hot, and I liked the way he tried to protect Olivia while still searching for answers. Olivia was pretty good, although her flippancy toward past events was a bit disheartening. There was one part that really alarmed me about this story, and that was the way in which a very serious issue was handled, as though it could just be forgotten and someone could just get over it with no lingering effects.
