Average Rating: 
Rating: - smart, original, fast-paced
This mystery was tight, smart and intriguing. I'm not a mystery reader, but this one got me hooked right from the get-go. Ryan does a great job balancing the personal insecurities of the heroine, Charlie McNally, with the increasingly intriguing plot. Hard to believe this was a debut novel. Secondary characters were engaging as well, though the hero smacked of the "too perfect" curse. The author also chose to ditch a wonderfully irritating coworker. All in all, though, Prime Time was a fast, smart ... Read More

When the widow of a man killed in a car accident contacts Charlie and asks why she never ... Read More
Rating: - enjoyable romantic suspense thriller
In most professions being forty-six years old means prime time, but as an on screen TV reporter Charlotte "Charlie" McNally is considered old. She as much as the brass compares herself unfavorably to the sleek new face of the young news anchorwoman, Ellen Cavanagh. Still Charlie hopes to put off father time a bit longer although she is insulted when news director Kevin O'Bannon assigns her to interview the widow of Aztratek Pharmaceuticals employee Bradley Foreman, who died in a recent car accident.
