Rating: 5 out of 5

I read all the other books in this series in a 24-hour time span a couple months ago and LOVED it! I could hardly wait for Lisa Renee Jones' next release! So when this came out, I read it as soon as I could and found that the story could very well stand alone.I like that I didn't need to reread all the books before to relate to the characters and immediately enter Lisa's fantastical creations again. Don't underestimate this book's power punch. Yes, it is a novella, but it is packed with action! A quick and gripping read with sizzling intimate moments between the lead characters, I immediately dove into the midst of the action again in the continuing unfolding of a sexy mystery suspense romance story.Mark Compton, art dealer and owner of an exclusive BDSM club, is faced with a devious heiress and coffee bar owner who is currently being treated in a psych ward. This lady, through the help of her richly funded attorneys, concoct a plan to shift reasonable causes for the murder of a young woman whose body has still not been found. Election year means things heat up and conviction is needed. The possible person being convicted is none other than Mark himself.With his mother hospitalized in New York with stage 3 breast cancer and undergoing various tests, Mark puts Crystal in the hot seat managing his art foundation there while he flies back to San Francisco to put out the fires popping up there around Mark's art gallery and sex club.In between (even though Mark would say that there is no in between) all the action, things get steamy between Mark and Crystal, and I find myself wanting to see what happens next in "No In Between." Although this book can stand alone, I highly recommend reading the other books preceding it to delve into more of the mystery unfolding, especially if you are into trying to figure things out before you finish reading the whole series! A shocking revelation in this book makes me wonder if somehow the fates of Rebecca and Sara's missing friend are intertwined. This book is definitely a must-read! Plus, I can't wait until the rest of the series concludes and is published this year... Way to go, Lisa! I am one captivated reader!
