Avvocato canadese che si dedica a scrivere libri d’azione, Ethan Jones distribuisce i suoi romanzi online, incluso questo, il secondo dedicato alle avventure poliziottesche con una sfumatura rosa di Jennifer Morgan, pubblicitaria niuiorchese che si diletta in una seconda attività da investigatrice privata. Il romanzo è breve e, specie all’avvio, non fa rimpiangere le (poche) ore trascorse a leggerlo: come in un vecchio telefilm, gli intrighi si alternano alle parentesi movimentate nonchè innaffiate sovente da un profluvio di pallottole e non c’è il tempo di annoiarsi. Per il lettore casuale, il problema principale è fissare le coordinate: lo svolgimento si riconnette in modo diretto a quanto accaduto nell’episodio precedente e l’autore si limita solo a cenni stringatissimi in materia, però la narrazione funziona comunque sia nella prima persona quando è in scena la protagonista, sia nella terza laddove invece ci sono tutti gli altri. Visti i bastoni fra le ruote messi in passato, l’eroina è nel mirino di trafficanti di droga per qualche via legati ai cartelli messicani: prima distruggono a pallettoni un caffè per cercare di eliminarla, poi provano la trappola con una falsa indagine da occhio privato. La giovanotta riesce a cavarsela, mentre il fidanzato poliziotto James (uno che ha una pazienza da stilita, visto che viene tenuto sempre a distanza) inizia a ricomporre le tessere dell’intrigo: il tutto conduce a un finale però troppo scontato con i fuochi d’artificio che caratterizzano l’arrivano i nostri che vede insieme NYPD e FBI, mentre iperrealista, ma almeno divertente risulta la scazzottata sul terrazzo del cattivo con la tirapiedi che vuol redimersi (o forse vuole solo sfangarla). Assieme alla sensazione di inutilità che vanno assumendo gli intermezzi ‘sentimentali’ o le ruminazioni di Jennifer su se stessa (le prime volte va bene, poi iniziano le ripetizioni), la banalità con cui si conclude la vicenda fa così propendere per un giudizio nel complesso negativo.

The Secret Blush (Jennifer Morgan romantic suspense novel – Book 2) by Ethan Jones can be read as a stand alone even though it is a series. It is one of the few romantic series I like, I don't care much for romance novels but this author does it well and tastefully. The girl of the story, Jennifer, is a PI part time and it has almost gotten her killed in the last book and it opens in this book with a bang also. The mystery is on. He boyfriend's job, cop, and her job, and her part-time job as a PI, and the near miss on her life are all intertwined and it is really exciting. Just how and the who is the big questions. The book is a fun mystery, action, adventure, and romance novel all bundled into a nice exciting package. I like his espionage books but I found I like these books too and didn't know if I would. It is a good nail biting episode. ( )

Well there is a lot going on, and I hope you like series because that is what you are getting. But I did not read the first book, however I don't think that I will, this just didn't do it for me. I did appreciate that it is a clean romance, not all books need to have sex in them, I really dont believe James would really stay in so called relationship but that is the scenario. Those of you who continue to read it can prove me wrong. I know there were many readers who loved book and I am glad for you to continue reading it, but I wont be one of them. ( )

I received a free e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I would recommend reading the first book in the Jennifer Morgan series, The Secret Affair, before reading this one.
On a scale of murder to money, this book was a run in the park.
Words can’t express my love for Jennifer Morgan, her best friend, Amber, and the large cast of characters in The Secret Blush. While every single character didn’t have a realistic amount of layers, all of them were memorable and essential to the plot.
I loved every minute of the book and the ending is an amazing lead into the next book which I can’t wait to read.
I recommend this book to fans of mystery, romance, and suspense. This book had my pulse racing until the last line and I am excited for the next one. ( )

I received an early review e-copy of this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review. This is the second book in the Jennifer Morgan series. I recommend reading The Secret Affair, the first book in the Jennifer Morgan series, before reading The Secret Blush, a continuation of the Jennifer Morgan story. This is a well-written book with good character development and a well-developed plot that seems more sinister than in The Secret Affair. The Secret Blush is full of action, danger, and intrigue. Someone wants Jennifer dead and nothing is, as it seems. The ending sets the reader up for another book in the Jennifer Morgan series. Ethan Jones has done it again with another great romantic thriller. Will be looking for the next book in the Jennifer Morgan series. ( )
