Understand Police Officers and Staying Out of Trouble Unfinished Business is one of the best action romance stories I've ever read. It would also make a very good movie for tv or the big screen. Mrs Taylor spared no details in bringing her story to life in words. She actually painted her scenes to life with great expression and detailed description. In this story you never have a dull moment in reading. All of her characters bring suspense, action and adventure to the story. Reading this story makes one think that the author had some type worldly espionage experience herself. She writes as though she use to be one of the characters in a real life adventure. It is a very well writtern story which keeps the readers attention from the beginning to the end. I recommend this book to all who enjoy plenty of action, suspense and romance. Get this book and read it, you will not regret it. GEMorrison
