No Time to Lose

Time is running out for Spiegel Cullen. Her biological clock is ticking at an alarming rate and she would love nothing better than to be married with children, but more importantly, the beautiful trial attorney is running out of time to solve the murder case involving her current client.

When the lifeless body of Breanna Jordan's boyfriend is found sprawled on a beach in the beautiful island of Bermuda, the spotlight immediately focuses on the gorgeous, spirited daughter of Pennsylvania State Congressman, Felix Jordan. Recognizing her courtroom skills, the preeminent attorney who is in charge of the case invites Spiegel to assist him in Breanna's defense and Spiegel is rightly apprehensive. After all, James, the defendant's brother, was Spiegel's first love who had inexplicably "dumped" her for another woman. Spiegel accepts the challenge and they all adjourn to the romantic island for the trial.

Soon after their arrival, Spiegel starts having erotic dreams about the still married James, who is making it clear that he wants to rekindle their relationship. When Spiegel's boyfriend shows up on the Island with a beautiful woman in tow, Spiegel realizes that she has some serious decisions to make.

Author Gail Ramsey writes a riveting novel which nicely captures some of the sensationalism that often accompanies high profile trials. With a colorful, skillfully crafted cast of characters and an intriguing storyline that unfolds at just the right pace, TICK TOCK is an absorbing, unpretentiously written story which will catch and hold the attention of lovers of this genre, reminding them to "step with the present and not worry about the past or future."
