Rating:  Summary: ROMANCE PLUS SUSPENSE KEEPS PAGES TURNING Review: When we first met beautiful private investigator Kat Vargas in "Lover's Lane," we soon learned that her heart had been broken. It hasn't mended when we meet her again in "Heat Wave." Speaking of a client who suspects her husband of infidelity, Kat opines, "...there was always `another' someone. Another woman. Another man. She was convinced happy endings were only for romance novels and that ninety percent of the population shouldn't even bother getting married." No, she hasn't forgotten who done her wrong, how much it hurt, and she's not about to make that mistake again. Most of us know better than to say "never," and Kat should, too. Once more the setting in Jill Marie Landis's second novel in the Twilight Cove series is a small California beach community, Twilight Cove, of course. It's a sleepy, slow spot, much too laid back for Kat who likes activity and is beginning to show signs of boredom. Then the doorbell rang. Ty Chandler was too good to be true in the looks department. When he said he needed a PI, Kat was sure he thought his wife was cheating on him (which meant his wife was nuts or he wasn't very good in the husband department). Never able to resist a story, she agreed to listen to him. Some nineteen years ago Ty had become a father; the girl he went steady with in high school had secretly given birth to a daughter. He had just learned of his daughter's existence, and he desperately wants to find her. As the two begin their search for Ty's offspring they are irresistibly drawn to one another. Yet the intimacy they both wants can come only at a price - each must overcome what is past in order to have a future together. Ty and his daughter are reunited. Now, what of Kat and Ty? After love has failed her will Kat be able to trust it again? Author Landis spices her romance story with enough suspense to keep pages turning. - Gail Cooke
