Review: PUBLIC RECOMMENDATION!
Rating: 5 out of 5

Reading this well-written novel by author Tamara Ward was a pleasure. From the first page, I was hooked. Ward clearly shows she has the talent and skill to create and tell a story with excellent characters and suspense. She also applies realistic, and at times, sharp dialogue to keep the plot moving. The twists and turns within this story keep the reader turning pages and trying to figure out 'whodunit', and it's a doozie of a challenge. I enjoyed how she gave the main character, Jade, the perfect 'best friend' to assist her for most of the story.Ward shares enough of Jade's back story to hold the reader's interest while the reader bonds with her as she works two tasks as a very determined, caring PI.Also, I must compliment Ward on her excellent grammar and punctuation throughout this novel. That's refreshing to see with today's young and upcoming authors.Now, the ending slowly builds and becomes suspense-filled with each page. The culprit will certainly surprise the reader...at least it did me. The other good news is Ward set the stage for a sequel that I know will be a top-shelf read as 'Private Deception' proved to be. I highly recommend this novel by this skilled writer. "Thank you, Tamara, for a super read. Keep writin' and smilin'..."LeeCarey-author.com
