Book One: Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Winner for 1999.

The Last Enemy cover art

"I very much enjoyed Ms. Jones' blend of romance, suspense, and comedy. Her characters are very dimensional. The hit man still haunts me because of the way his depth is revealed as the story unfolds. Action and comedy are smoothly written, making it easy to watch it as a movie in your head. But, don't count on intermissions, you'll want to read it straight through." Midwest Book Review

"A highly suspenseful, should-be-a-movie, totally entertaining tale of derring-do, THE LAST ENEMY defies categorization--at least by me. All I can tell you is: I enjoyed every word and was sorry when I reached the end. If you really liked the movie, ROMANCING THE STONE, then you will absolutely love THE LAST ENEMY and be clamoring at Hollywood's gates to make this book into the next "really great movie." Very Highly Recommended, Under the Cover Reviews

"Pauline B. Jones is back with another terrific tale that will make readers want to savor each and every line. More suspenseful than her first book, THE LAST ENEMY still contains a large element of humor that really spices up this dynamite novel." 4 & 1/2 Stars from Romantic Times

"Jones pulls together many different elements and story lines in her skillfully written novel and combines elements of flowery romances, suspenseful thrillers, and hard-boiled mysteries to create an engaging, fast-paced story full of unexpected twists and turns." Booklist, Nov 15, 1999.

Book Two: Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Nominee for 2000

Cover grahic of Byte Me

"Pauline Jones is an accomplished writer able to engage superbly crafted characters with plot-line surprises that play fair with both her story, her characters, and her readers. Also highly recommended is her earlier novels, The Last Enemy and The Spy Who Kissed Me." Midwest Book Review

"Ms. Jones makes a large splash with each new book and BYTE ME is no exception. The intricate plot and compelling characters make this a nail-biting read." Four and one-half stars and a December Top Pick, Romantic Times Magazine

"Ms. Jones does an incredible job of using words to paint the backdrop surrounding this lush tale of romance, suspense and intrigue.  Jake is a strong, determined Marshal who kept the action at a max throughout the story.  Phoebe is also headstrong, smart and sexy, as she provides a great partner for Jake.  The romance adds charm to BYTE ME. BYTE ME has already gained quite a following, and I feel that the re-release from Hard Shell will gain a number of additional fans." The Romance Reader's Connection

Book Three: Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Winner for 2001

Missing You Cover graphic

"This rounds out the marvelous Lonesome Lawmen Trilogy. The wonderful characters from previous books are back, making this a truly exciting, engaging read! Talented author Pauline Baird Jones' star is on the rise!"  4 1/2 stars! Romantic Times

"Fans of Tami Hoag, Iris Johansen, and Catherine Coulter's Sherlock and Savich series will find Jones' fast-paced and suspenseful romance satisfying, even though it's kinder and gentler...Teen fans of contemporary adult romantic suspense may enjoy this even though the protagonists are middle aged." Booklist

"...MISSING YOU keeps you on the edge of your seat, as Luke and “Amelia” have to make a fast getaway on skis and evade the baddies who are after them. More intrigue and secrets are revealed as this story takes you for a downhill race into danger and romance. I loved it! Pauline Baird Jones is a master at creating superb romantic suspense. I knew she was going to be a star the moment I read her first book. Her books are all keepers." Suzanne Scoleburn,  Reader to Reader
