FIRST YOU RUN

When Adrien Fletcher agrees to help his best mate, ousted Bullet Catcher Jack Culver, find a baby adopted through a black-market ring thirty years ago, he never dreams he’d be thrust into the world of Maya culture.  He’s given a name – Miranda Lang – and a clue – she was marked with a tattoo.  Together, they may be able to solve a thirty-year-old murder.

Miranda, an anthropology professor at Berkley, is promoting her book which debunks the theory that the Mayans predicted December 21, 2012 as the end of the world.  But someone is out to stop her.  Signings are disrupted or mysteriously cancelled, books disappear by the case and her life is threatened.

If Miranda is indeed the adoptee Fletch is looking for, he must keep her safe from the lunatics who seem determined to stop her.  And if along the way his attraction to Miranda turns into more, he’ll just have to deal with that too.

Fletch, a former member of the Tasmanian Special Ops, is the most engaging Bullet Catcher to date.  He’s fearless in the face of danger and known for his ability to get a woman horizontal and naked in under five seconds.  Miranda is his intellectual match, but she’s a woman hounded by fears.  Who better to help her conquer them than Fletch?  Watching these two in action was pure bliss.

Sexy, thrilling, spellbinding, romantic – FIRST YOU RUN cover all the bases of a great romantic suspense while including a little history and geography lesson as well.  The plot and characters hooked me from the first page and kept me hooked until I finished at four in the morning.  This book – especially the hero – was well worth losing a night’s sleep.
