From the Guardian Express, reviewed by N.M. Lorde
For those who are fans of the late Sidney Sheldon (in particular his latter works) then may I suggest Lust, Money & Murder - the first in a three part series written by Mike Wells? The novella possesses most of the components that made Sheldon's books so captivating.  A fast plot. International intrigue. And a beautiful heroine with a troubled past who uses her inner resolve to climb her way to the top..Wells does his research...readers will get a detailed account of what it takes to join the secret service, how to detect counterfeit bills as well as what the reality of life is like for young women living in Bulgaria.  

5.0 out of 5 Stars!  You will be hooked! Not since Sidney Sheldon has a male author captured a woman's perspective so well. it has it all -- intrigue, love and realism. - Kathleen Bursaw "bookster"    

5.0 Out of 5 Stars!  "Good book for those who like a little mystery, a little intrigue, a little romance and an average person as a heroine. I couldn't put this book down. The tone was light and easy going, story well written and easy to follow. Counterfeiting details seem to be well researched, without being boring and technical." - Christine, at Goodreads    

5.0 Out of 5 Stars!  "A fun filled rollercoaster   Love, revenge, danger, and pride propel the reader through this excellent novel. The protagonist, Elaine, grows throughout this entire story and at each stage the reader can relate to what she experiences. Fantastic read!"  - Theresa Fitzgerald, Book Reviewer
