From the beginning, Spinelli and Caseworker Shannon O\u2019Hara generate their own kind of fireworks, causing more than the normal workplace stress. They both have their own philosophies for dealing with the clientele. However, the forces of nature have their own plan for Spinelli and Shannon.<br \/>\nShannon moonlights as Santa Claus\u2019 little helper at the mall, and when Santa and an elf turn up dead Shannon appears to be next on the killer\u2019s list. Spinelli is placed back on homicide and goes undercover as Santa to help capture the killer. He catches a great deal of grief along the way but will he capture the heart of his little Santa\u2019s helper as well?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Review:<\/h2>\n<p>Spinelli has had a tough day.\u00a0 First his mentor and father figure retires and then he is reassigned to the Child Services department.\u00a0 But, the bright spot in his day is when he meets his partner, Shannon O&#8217;Hara.\u00a0 His bright spot quickly becomes dark when they can&#8217;t seem to work together.\u00a0 The more they fight and hate each other the more they start to feel for each other.\u00a0 When the Santa and an Elf that Shannon works with at the Mall are found dead she is soon dragged into a case that Spinelli is working.\u00a0 The closer Spinelli gets to both the killer and Shannon the tougher it is for him.\u00a0 Can he manage to find the bad guy before they find Shannon?<br \/>\nI really enjoyed this book.\u00a0 Spinelli was a fantastically fun character.\u00a0 It wasn&#8217;t just Spinelli though.\u00a0 The story was a great story that unfortunately we could possibly find in the newspaper.\u00a0 That aspect alone gave this story a level of realism.\u00a0 With the realism, the fun characters and the spicy love story between Shannon and Spinelli join together for a great book.\u00a0 I am so glad this is only the first book in the series because I can&#8217;t wait to read the next book.\u00a0 I definitely enjoyed the book, the characters and the story.\u00a0 Valerie Clarizio did a phenomenal job and she has found a fan in me.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I am reviewing a great suspense romance novel, Covert Exposure.\u00a0 This is the first in Valerie Clarizio&#8217;s Nick Spinelli Mystery\u00a0series.\u00a0 This was a fun suspense filled novel that will keep you on your toes.\u00a0 For my full review keep reading after the book blurb.\u00a0 I hope you all have a great Tuesday.
