Judge Simone Thompson has made a name for herself as an up and coming family court judge.  However with her fame brings the possibility of danger, a cunning killer, Narcissus, has targeted Simone as one potential victim.  Hoping to escape the limelight for a short time, Simone heads to the lush Brazilian tropics for her friend’s wedding to a prominent filmmaker, Norris Haynes.  Norris also happens to be on the killer’s list.

It is in Brazil that Simone meets another target, famous actor D. Anthony “Sonny” Whittaker, who is there with his twin daughters.  When the killer fails a murder attempt on a famous actress, Simone and Sonny find themselves spending time together.  Soon Simone realizes she is falling hard for this man, a man to whom she cannot become attached.  Simone is slated to preside over Sonny’s bitter custody battle.

Hoping to leave her feelings behind, Simone vows to oversee this trial.  Soon, she finds her life torn apart by a potential scandal, the quest for her biological father, Narcissus’s stalking, and her growing desire for Sonny.  She is forced to face her past, present and future as they all merge in this powerful, sometimes poignant, story.

Packed with edge of your seat suspense, emotionally heated courtroom battles, fiery romance, Hollywood life and vibrant characters, TWILIGHT is definitely not to be missed.  Though I had to get used to the shorter chapter lengths, I was rapidly able to adjust to the story’s flow, and by the 8^th chapter, I was unable to put the story down for any reason.

With a few secondary plotlines keeping you riveted to the pages, there are plenty of reasons to love TWILIGHT.  Your best bet is to find a copy soon and indulge in a fantastic summer read.
