Cold Case Cowboy by Jenna Ryan... QC #103

Cold Case Cowboy by Jenna Ryan, Intrigue, #972, February 2007

Painter's Bluff seems to have a serial killer in its midst. A killer that seems to be targeting blonde females of Scandinavian descent. And newly arrived architect Sasha Myer fits the bill according to cold case Denver cop Nick Law who was called in by the town's mayor. While going to examine the site where the resort will be built Sasha and 5 other people are trapped. Now the danger seems to accelerate because it seems the killer is also trapped. And there might be a possibility that one of the people she is trapped with is on friendly terms with the killer. Who can she trust? And is Sasha being in Painter's Bluff a coincidence?

This book started out great. The suspense was good. The banter between the H and h was great. Sasha used humour to deal with fear. There was no beating around the bush that these two were attracted to each other. Then the sarcastic banter got a little old and the story seemed to slow down for me. The story seemed to veer off in all kinds of directions. I had to go back and re-read several paragraph to figure out how they got to that point. I found the story ended a little too abruptly without knowing what happened to several characters.
