Smash Cut (Mitchell & Associates #1)

Derek has been played, but he is not sure why til he turned the tv on. It gets a little wordy in places, but it is twisty, so it keeps you reading.

If you love thrillers with a generous helping of mystery, suspense and romance … Sandra Brown will not disappoint. I have read many of her books each one nearly impossible to put down and each leaving you guessing till the very end. I haven\’t even finished this book and I am sure that it\’s one of her best and yet still unsure of how it will even end. Each one has handfuls of plot twists that will leave you utterly shocked at times, giving the characters so much meaning. If your looking to dive into a good book you can start with this or perhaps Mean Streak, Friction or Hello Darkness. Many of which have not and I predict will not disappoint.

I almost didn\’t want this book to end! The sheer lunacy of Creighton kept me reading far into the night. Derek and Julia went through some hard times and had gigantic trust issues. And the final revelation was totally unexpected!\’ If you enjoy suspense and intrigue you will love this book!

Smash Cut by Sandra is a romance suspense novel, where the killer recreates cinema\’s goriest murders. Enters Derek Mitchell, a renowned lawyer to defend the victim\’s nephew, Creighton- spoiled little rich boy, who hasn\’t been charged. Julie, the victim\’s mistress, was there when he is killed. So who killed millionaire Paul Wheeler? And how many more victims will die before the killer is stopped? I love reading Sandra Brown\’s books. So rich with a great plot and characters.

Julie Rutledge never imagined her standing weekly liaison with Paul Wheeler would end up with him being shot point blank in an elevator. She was devastated and inconsolable, but one thing she was adamant about was this was specifically directed at Paul. He was an intended target. The police were calling it a robbery gone bad, but Julie had other thoughts. She was convinced that Paul was murdered. Derek Mitchell had of course heard of Wheeler Enterprises, but was surprised when Paul Wheeler\’s brother Doug asked him to represent his family. He is a criminal attorney, and couldn\’t fathom how his services would be needed. Apparently the police were asking Doug\’s son, Creighton, some very pointed questions, and thought they may accuse him of being involved with Paul\’s murder. Derek thought this was going to be a typical case, but soon learned otherwise when duplicity and lies were exposed at every turn. I enjoyed this tale from the beginning. We are drawn in from page one with the demise of Paul Wheeler. It happened in such a horrific manner that it is like an auto accident. You just have to hang around to know what happens next. Derek and Julie are very strong characters and have incredible chemistry. Derek is such a dominant enigmatic man and Julie compliments him well. Creighton is a sociopath of the most sinister caliber. SB spins an intricate detailed story weaving in lust, sex, betrayal, and loss. This one is well worth the read, and definitely a keeper!
