4.5 starsIs this Sandra Brown's best novel ever? Quite possibly. Is this my favourite Sandra Brown? Most probably.Is Lee Coburn my favourite Sandra Brown hero? Indubitably. Lee Coburn is a dangerous man. Accused of killing seven people, he's on the run. When Honor Gillette's four year-old daughter Emily spies a man outside their house, Honor cautiously investigates. Coburn has not turned up at her place by accident. She has something he wants, something valuable her late husband hid. But Honor k...
The arrival of Lee Coburn into the lives of Honor Gillette and her four-year-old daughter, Emily brought drastic and deadly change. Honor’s husband Eddie had died in a car crash two years previously, so the two of them lived alone on the edge of the bayou in Louisiana, with her father in law, Stan Gillette not far away. But Coburn’s arrival after the murder of several men at a nearby warehouse had Honor terrified for their safety. Would Coburn kill them both?As Coburn searched Honor’s house, wit...
5 OH MY Stars!! YES!! Good stuff, really good stuff!!I did not see that coming. Wow…what an ending. I thought I had it all figured it out, but Sandra Brown played me for a fool, and I'd assume the role again if I could read more books that mess with my mind like this one did! This book ticked off so many of my RS need-to-have boxes. The perfect RS couple…Lee Coburn, a "lethal", protective, swoon-worthy hero with a sensitive side…Honor Gillette, a strong-willed, smart, fearless heroine-√! Plenty
DNF at 28% I would just respectfully like to say that this book isn't for me. Nothing wrong with the book or writing, this genre/plot just isn't my thing. Just a case of:
As much as I loved SB's writing and Coburn, I detested the (needless) ill fated endings of some amazing characters. So I'm knocking down a star for this otherwise 5 starrer.The budding love between Diego and Isobel was so beautiful. I was rooting for them since Isobel's rescue. The abject cruelty of her murder left me devasted. The credibility of the Bookkeeper as a big bad villain had been reiterated to the readers a hundred times before. Such a horrific act of violence for no apparent reason o...
4.5 starsI haven’t met a Sandra Brown book I didn’t love (knock on wood). She’s so skilled at weaving stories full of intrigue, suspense and one unexpected twist after another. It’s never clear to me who can be trusted. Never. Meanwhile, there’s tension galore and an unlikely romance that always seems to culminate in the perfect moment between the characters. Amidst all the chaos of uncovering the truth, it’s pure genius that she manages to pull it off every single time.Honor is making cupcakes
4.5 Stars!! I knew after finished my first Sandra Brown book that I was hooked. This is my fifth book in just a little over a month and I am yet to be disappointed. I know no one is perfect and I am sure I will come upon a SB book that I’m just not going to like, but for now I am enjoying the ride.Lethal was another fantastic read. For me there was a bit of a different feel to it compared to the other books I have read. It was a good difference. :) The synopsis really covers everything you ne...
This was a great book to come across. A really gripping story with a sprinkling of romance thrown in as well - the first of this genre that I've encountered. Also the first Sandra Brown novel I have read. Very enjoyable reading, I was engaged from the outset and I did not want to put it down. Coburn is our most attractive protagonist, with a hard edge that I liked, that is eventually broken by Honor, a capable woman who is stronger than she realises as she fights to save her daughter and decease...
“Put your hands on me. Pretend this means something.” Well there was no pretending from me!This book will always be special to me, probably because the ending is so burned in my memory I know I will never ever forget it.The storyDirty cops. Cover-ups. A man running from the law and holding a young cop widow hostage while trying to search through her house looking for something important.I think that about covers it.If you want to know more, read the book because I don't want to spoil
4.5 stars.Just as good the second time around. Had totally forgotten the "bad guy"! I cannot wait for her new book, due out in August. ==================================== My original review. “You know who this is. All hell’s broke loose.” I liked this one a lotBrooding, tough, heroWidow with young daughterSuspenseMysterySex – although not a lot of that His entire aspect was menacing, starting with his chilling eyes and the pronounced bone structure of his face. He was tall and lean, but t...
First of all - thank you Blacky for this awesome recommendation. :)Second, this is what I saw every time Lee Coburn made an appearance in Lethal (which is all the damn time): And in the end, read this!
3.5 StarsI really enjoyed this suspense novel with a touch of romance, especially the second half. The first half was a bit too slow for me. The characterization is strong and the writing is great. The hero is just my type – hot, brooding and stoic. The heroine is strong and likeable. I didn’t guess who the villain was but I was a little disappointed with the Bookkeeper’s identity. I found it a bit unbelievable. Also, the ending felt a bit too rushed. Although I did love the epilogue, it still l...
Another addition to my best heroes ever list!! I really want to hunt Sandra Brown down right now and make her write the scene that should have come at the end, but I can live with the way she left it since I have no other choice. So much happened to this couple, and I was so in love with their story, I just felt like he could've at least glimpsed them before the book ended. Maybe it's better the way it turned out in my brain, though, cause that was very sappy and emotional.Excellent plot, excell...
This book was so good!! I loved Coburn. What a man!!! You can tell I was a happy reader by the number of exclamation points I've used thus far. Honor was a good heroine too. Very intense and awesome suspense. Very close to five stars. Rating: 4.5 stars.

Written May 9, 20154.4 Stars - Simply GREAT once again. Yay! The very best narration too... Ohh, I love to listen to these suspence stories by Sandra Brown. Lethal is one of her most read and reviewed suspense romances here on GR. It was time for the audiobook narrated by one of my favorite voices, Mr Victor Slezak. Stunned...I've used every possible "free" minute to audiobook listening these two last days. These SB books are a joy in good exciting entertainment every time. I sniffles and so...
✣ Dirty cops ✣ Mystery ✣ Suspense ✣I listened to this one and thought the narrator did a great job. I wouldn't say LETHAL is a romance book but it does have a sprinkling of "romance" towards the end of the book. If you decide to read this one keep in mind this is more about suspense than it is about romance. Leathal takes place over 2 days and has 4 couples that play a bigger part in the overall story. The main couple is Coburn and Honor. Honor possibly holds the key to Coburn figuring out who
loved it! Listened to this one on audio. This one is more suspense then romance, but what romance was there was quite believable. This is a story where you can't tell who is the good guy and who is the bad guy, and it makes you second guess every thing said and done. Kept me riveted! When it was over I wanted to scream, "One more chapter, PLEASE!!"
This was another one of Sandra Brown's really good ones. Lethal starts off with a bang and just keeps going and going. Honor is a widow with a four year old daughter, Emily. One afternoon, Emily tells Honor she saw a man outside in their yard. When Honor investigates she finds herself and Emily held captive. Coburn, a man accused of a mass killing at a local warehouse, has taken Honor and her daughter hostage. For some reason, Coburn believes Honor's deceased husband, Eddie, had some valuable in...
update: 1.99 sale price on 02/14/2017In the category of lethal, dark, and dangerous character, Lee is one of my most favourite heroes in books.Honor is not a TSTL kinda heroine. Romance? I feel the ending confirmed the authenticity in their romance. It is real!The villains are multi-layered.Plot? Dynamic. Suspenseful.TBH, the identity of Bookkeeper wasn’t credible to be a mastermind behind the horrific mass crimes. Lee: "But I'm not a hearts and flowers guy. I'm not even an all-night guy. I don...
5 Coburn Stars!!Wow!! I fucking LOVED this book! There's your review...lolol!!I think Tori said it best... "Kidnapper? I should be so lucky." You're damn right, girl!!! This is a great book for when you need a break from the strictly romance reads and want something more on the suspenseful side. I'd been recommended to check this author out by probably a dozen people, and had also been told that this specific book was the best one to begin with because, even though it is mainly a suspens
