One mistake leads to a year of exile... Used to the busy playground of Winter Park, police chief Reese Daniels is shipped off to sleepy Lake City, Colorado. She takes the job of sheriff seriously, but makes it clear to one and all: this year is just a blip in her life. When it's done, she's gone. Forest Ranger M. Z. Morgan has lived in Lake City long enough to be considered a local. The pace, the quiet and the many friends make life there well worth the lack of dating material. A girlfriend would still be nice, and the new sheriff is easy on the eyes. It's entirely natural for Morgan and Reese to be friendly, but Reese's repeated reminders that she's not sticking around make it impossible for anything more between them. That is, until they strike a no strings bargain. Some guaranteed exchange of heat as the long winter sets in seems just what they need to pass the time. So what if it's the best sex they've ever had? It's still only temporary. They won't mistake sex for more, even if it only gets better--month after month. After month. No Strings--it seemed like a good idea at the time. Golden Crown Literary Award winner Gerri Hill weaves a sensuous, sizzling story against the spectacular backdrop of a year in the high country.
another great book from Gerri Hill. This one is not so much about a crime but more about the relationship between these two woman. Very good book!
Good read.

I usually enjoy books of mystery but ventured a try at romance and was not disappointed in this at all. I expected to be bored due to the lack of an exciting murder related plot but found instead that someone does not always have to die to make a story interesting. I found myself simply unable to put the book down after becoming enthralled by the main characters and their story.
Gee, What Sweet Torture

Gerri Hill's books don't sit unread at my house for too long. If I don't take a new one out of the mailbox and start reading it immediately, my partner will grab it instead. Needless to say, she's very popular around here. (That's it for my disclaimer.) Reese Daniels, Winter Park police chief, is exiled for a year because of an unmentionable incident with the mayor's wife. Her new assignment is to stand in as sheriff of the sleepy town of Lake City. Fun. Or not. Lake City certainly isn't a social mecca, particularly for lesbians. However, Reese quickly crosses paths with MZ Morgan. Neither has any intention of starting a relationship and neither is interested in a one-night stand.
You're going to love "No Strings"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a great new book from author Gerri Hill! One warning though...don't start reading until you have plenty of time to read the whole thing. Like so many of her previous books, this is one that you won't be able to put down! It's the story of two women that begin a "no strings" attached affair, which of course doesn't work out quite as they had planned. Before they both know it, they're in love and wanting anything but the "no strings" arrangement they had agreed on. If I had one complaint about this book (and many others of Gerri Hill's), it's that it ends too soon and leaves me wanting more!
A Beautiful, Heart-Warming, Romantic Tale
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
When it comes to Gerri Hill, I don't even bother to read the extract, to find out what the book is about. She's belongs to that elite group of great writers, whose descriptive technique puts you in the middle of the scene, and whose characterizations are so rich that the characters just leap right off the page, forcing you to race through the pages to read their story. I don't think, I need to say anything about the book. If you want to know what it's about simply read the extract. What I will say is that "No Strings" is a beautiful, heart-warming, romantic tale. It easily became one of my new personal favourites and without a doubt will be a book that I will reread countless times.
