Reviews

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;">&quot;Denise Robbins' delicious debut novel, <em>It Happens in Threes</em>, begins with a bang and doesn't let up. Fueled by a heady mix of action, suspense, humor, and romance—and a couple of thoroughly engaging protagonists—the book kept me turning pages (and hoping that the wild, sexy ride wouldn't end!). IHT marks the launch of a career to watch.&quot; </span></p> <p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;">~David Daniel, author of Reunion and The Marble Kite<span>  </span></span></p> <p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://www.daviddanielbooks.com/M">http://www.daviddanielbooks.com/</a></span><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;"><strong><br /><br />Midwest Book Review gave It Happens in Threes 5 Stars<br /></strong><br /><em>It Happens in Threes </em>is packed with scorching romance, nail-biting suspense, and nonstop action. The chemistry between Ruby and Michael sizzles and Robbins gives the reader quite the tease along with a lot of fun as she adroitly brings Michael and Ruby together only to pull them apart through their own misperceptions. The characters are engaging, from the sensual Ruby to hot-tempered Michael to the deliciously evil yet debonair LaRue. The story moves at a fast pace and keeps the reader entertained throughout. Consider this book one rollicking good read.</span></p> <p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;">~Christy Tillery French, Midwest Book Review and author of The Bodyguard Series</span></p> <p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://www.midwestbookreview.com/rbw/feb_09.htm#christy">http://www.midwestbookreview.com/rbw/feb_09.htm#christy<br /></a><br /></span></p> <p><strong>Coffee Time Romance gave It Happens in Threes 5 Cups<br /></strong><br /><em>It Happens in Threes</em> is one adventurous scene after another. Ms. Robbins has written an intense thriller filled with hunky men, beautiful women, and one action-packed stunt after another. I could not put this romantic suspense down; it was just so powerful and overwhelmed my senses. When I first met Ruby, she gave me the impression of being a wimpy woman, but it was not long before I comprehended that she has a spine of steel. Where Michael came off as a hardcore man with a superhero complex, I found his weakness was not kryptonite but Ruby herself. The author took a great story, stuffed it with sexual tension, added some drama, and crammed enough exploits to turn a wonderful spy novel into a perfect tale with unique twists and mysterious turns, accomplishing her goal of making one heck of a romantic and suspenseful adventure!</p> <p>Danielle<br />Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance &amp; More<br /></p> <p><a href="http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/BookReviews/Ithappensinthrees.html">http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/BookReviews/Ithappensinthrees.html</a></p>
