First sentence:
"Dropping a sealed manila envelope on the desk, General Buck Grant eased himself into his chair and stretched out his bad leg."
Description:
"Only the most dire emergency could send
paleontologist Regan McKinney racing across the West in search of a man.
But her grander has vanished, and Quinn Younger could be the missing
link. What the bad-boy-turned-American-hero is doing in a deserted
tumbleweed town is an even bigger mystery...until danger trails Regan
into Cisco, Utah, and the sexy ex-air force pilot becomes her sole hope
of survival....
Quinn figures things can't get worse than being stuck in tiny Cisco on
an impossible special-ops mission. Then the dinosaur doc's granddaughter
roars into town with bad guys on her tail. Once, Quinn was on the fast
track to a life of crime...until Regan's grandfather rescued him. Now
Quinn owes it to them both to find the old guy. But throw in a deadly
terrorist and some hot dinosaur bones, and a man could get himself
killed. Because facing down danger with this revved-up lady is one
endless adrenaline-rush of pleasure--especially when they're falling
crazy in love...and hanging on for dear life...." -- from the back cover
My thoughts:
I enjoyed this first book in the Steele Street series. The characters were enjoyable to get to know, and the plot moved along well. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Crazy Cool.
