“a great diversion from Evanovich’s long-running Stephanie Plum series, and a laugh-out-loud impossible adventure.”

“The Fraud is a brilliant pastiche. It is clever, often entertaining, well-researched . . .”

“Action is the attraction, with dollops of sex and romance.”

“Despite the magnetic pull of eagerly described physical attraction, there’s never a moment when Alex Walton yields control over her own heart and life.”

“Despite its flaws, the book ultimately succeeds in getting the reader to root for Grace.”
