My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tom Bierdz provided me a review copy, what follows is my honest review.

Masked Intentions is the third in a series of books a bout psychiatrist Grant Garrick. In the first we were introduced to the character and given his back story. In the second, Grant fights to prove he is innocent of a murder. In this one, a new friend is charged with murder and does not help his case when he runs to Mexico.

Grant finds Toby Rathbone dead drunk on a street while walking to work. He takes him in and later finds out he was married to a successful author of trashy romance novels. Toby eventually makes it to the point where he is starting to get back with her when she is murdered. Toby flees knowing the police will suspect him. Grant soon discovers her murder seems to be staged to be like one of her books. With the help of a local detective they try to find the real killer.

The story was good. It has quite a few twists and turns and keeps the reader on their toes. The characters are well developed in a continuation from the first two books. It is a stand alone book in that you can read it without having read the other two. Information needed from them is provided when and if it is needed.
I would recommend this book to young adult and older. There are some scenes that younger people might not understand and the nature of the romance novels comes into play here.

Pick it up if you are looking for a good mystery. Especially who did it.
