About this listen

 She's old-money Miami. He's barefoot Coconut Grove. The only thing they had in common was the law, until they faced each other in the steamiest murder trial of the century, a case that would make sparks fly, headlines scream, and opposites attract. Surrounded by crooks, con men, and a cast of colorful characters, Steve Solomon and Vickie Lord must solve the crime before they end up in ruin, in jail, or, worse, in bed.©2005 Paul Levine (P)2005 Blackstone Audiobooks Crime Legal Literature & Fiction Mystery Thriller & Suspense Law Thriller Fiction

Do you remember that Bruce Willis/Cybill Sheppard Detective Agency show from the late 80s? Two smart, funny, attractive people solving crimes while resisting crazy sexual attraction and spouting humorous dialogue. This Paul Levine book is like that on steroids: the crime is erotic/violent (involving a death during a BDSM session), the sexual tension between Steve Solomon and Victoria Lord approaches the explicit & is spicy/arousing, and the humor is expletive-filled & laugh-out-loud ribald.
The tongue-in-cheek approach is occasionally heavy-handed and the characters are unrealistically cartoonish-sexy, but the book is a ton of fun.

Fortuitously for audiobook listeners: Reader Christopher Lane turns in a straight-up brilliant performance reading the book, too. True, he's occasionally mechanical - sounding like someone reading a text lying open on his lap - but his diction, timbre, cadence, and voice-acting are spot on, and he actually sings some dialogue.. demonstrating impressive dedication to the project.

In toto, this first book in the 'Solomon vs. Lord' series rates 8.5 stars out of 10. It was a no-brainer download when it was on the 'Plus' menu.. in fact, it's worth a Credit for anyone looking for Romantic Comedy with a legal thriller twist.

Reminded me of 'Moonlighting'

Laugh out loud f'n good. Christopher Lane at his absolute best. Couldn't put down. Fell in love with Bobby. Want to read Levine's next book but the narrator gets terrible reviews. I loved this book so much, that I don't want the next one to ruin my enjoyment of this one. Should of stayed with Christopher Lane. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

So F'n Good!
