If you like reading Julie Garwood's books then this will not disappoint you, you'll love it. The story starts off simple enough, an off-duty trauma surgeon witnesses the shooting of an FBI agent during a sting operation gone awry.

DNF Review I think this was one of my quickest DNF yet - before I finished half of Chapter 1 - and that is saying something given that I try very hard not to. On the first page, the reader is introduced to Dr. Eleanor Kathleen Sullivan, Ellie: Ellie was observed by three second-year surgical res...

3.5 stars. Not so much with the suspense, but an enjoyable romance. And I liked Ellie's Dad and his good deal air conditioner that tried to blow Max out of the room.

The Ideal ManThis is the first time I've read anything from Julie Garwood and I have to say, if this is what all her books are like, I've been missing out. I love Ellie and Max and was sorry to finish the book because I wanted to continue reading about them. The pace of the book was great with not...

*Review will be posted on From the TBR Pile on 2/3/12I had been looking forward to reading Julie Garwood's latest for a while now. It finally hit the top of my TBR pile and I devoured it. The Ideal Man has a great balance of romance, mystery and action. Everything I love about a good romantic sus...
