A hungry attraction. A hidden enemy. Devoted defense lawyer Clare Westbrook, used to working for others, can now call the shots on her own terms. A multi-million-dollar inheritance from the father she never knew has allowed her to start her own practice. And with her teenage niece, Emma, whom she's raised as a daughter, on a school trip to Europe, Clare has been able to focus on turning a storefront in a tough Phoenix neighborhood into the legal firm of her dreams and offering her services to the troubled community. But just as she opens for business, explosive shots take out her street-level windows -- and nearly take her life. Someone clearly has targeted Clare, though she doesn't know who or why. All she knows is she must surrender to Tony Sonterra's protection if she wants to survive.... Sonterra has designs on a career move to the FBI -- and on rekindling his scorching, no-strings-attached affair with Clare. But can the man who sparks her passion be trusted with her life? Or is someone using Clare, the one person Tony has dared to get close to, to get to him?… (mais)

Clare Westbrook has started her own law practice using her recent inheritance as a way to take pro bono cases so that she can help people in need. Her relationship with Tony Sonterra is on the skids due to the fact that he can't get past her chosen profession, and she can't get past his. From the day Clare opens her new office, she is already in danger when shots are fired, shattering the glass in her front window. Things really heat up after Clare gets a visit from a patient with an appointment at the psychiatric clinic next door to her office who warns her to beware of the dolls. Clare then begins to receive dolls with creepy messages, and people start turning up dead.

Never Look Back is the second installment in the Look Trilogy. Although the mystery in this story is intriguing, it isn't as well developed as the one in the first book. The suspects and clues are scattered throughout the plot, making it difficult to connect them to the mystery. Much of this story revolved around Clare and Tony's failing relationship, which slowed the story down a great deal. Throughout the book, I was reminded of the Stephanie Plum series with some laugh out loud moments. She is even mentioned prior to the end of the book. Overall, Never Look Back is an enjoyable romantic suspense read, but not quite as good as the first book in the Look Trilogy. ( )

Second in the Look series, not a quick paced as the first. Clare opens a pro bono law office downtown. But is a killer, with a calling card of dolls targeting her to kill her? Or harass her? Meanwhile, boyfriend, Detective Sonterra is still hanging around helping her chase down leads and she's not sure if she should give her heart to him or not ( )

Never Look Back is the second novel in the Clare Westbrook Series. I really enjoyed the book. It was a delight to read. It was full of suspense, and humor. Just like in Don’t Look Now I laughed so many times well reading. The very first sentence left me in stitches.“If there’s a maniac or a mad ax murderer within a hundred mile radius, he - or she - will come straight to me, Clare Westbrook, hapless attorney at law, like steel filings to a magnet.”The book is fast-paced, very hard to put down, and the characters are outstanding. I have not read One Last Look yet, the third book of the series. I am going to start it, right now.Well reading a few other reviews of the books in this series. Many people compare it to the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. I have never read anything by Evanovich, so I wouldn’t know. Maybe she is an author I should check out! ( )

This is the second book in the trilogy. Clare Westbrook, former foster child, is now a defense lawyer. She is raising her sister's child, after the disappearance of her sister, thirteen years earlier and the imprisonment of her sister's husband. She is also wrestling with a relationship with a Homicide Detective in Scottsdale, AZ. And if that isn't enough, someone has shot out the window of her new law office. ( )
