Behaving Badly
The latest novel from the author ofOut of the Blue(2003) andRescuing Rose(2004) opens with Miranda Sweet, a vet turned animal-behavior specialist, reeling from the sudden end of her engagement to a handsome actor whose television career is taking off. Running into an ex, the sleazy Jimmy Smith, who is now a supposedly respectable member of Parliament named James Mulholland, doesn't help matters, especially since it brings up long-buried guilt from an incident Miranda can't forget. Sixteen years ago, as a young activist under Jimmy's sway, Miranda was responsible for hurting the son of a university professor, and she decides to look up the boy, now a photographer, and confess and apologize. But when she meets the handsome, gruff David White, sparks fly immediately and Miranda puts off telling him that she was the one who unwittingly delivered the letter bomb that scarred his hands. Wolff's new novel has an unusual premise and a great payoff that will keep readers hooked.Kristine HuntleyCopyright © American Library Association.
