RS Review: Now You Die (Bullet Catchers) [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Now You Die" the 6th book in her Bullet Catcher series by Roxanne St. Claire.

Product Description

Former Bullet Catcher and lone wolf investigator Jack Culver is on a mission. Thirty years ago, an innocent woman was convicted of murder. Jack believes he's found the real killer -- but to take down one of the highest legal authorities in the land, he needs access. Serious access. Unfortunately, the one person he knows with that kind of power is his ex-boss and ex-lover, the woman who still haunts his dreams.

Bullet Catchers owner Lucy Sharpe realizes she's being used for her connections, and she intends to use Jack Culver right back. She's determined to see justice served, even if that means partnering with the man who once found his way past her iron shields. This time, she'll be strong enough to avoid Jack's persuasive touch.

But when passion flares, and they become the killer's target, Lucy and Jack don't just break some rules -- they shatter them. And that means risking everything: their jobs, their hearts and their lives.

My Review:

"Now You Die" is the last book in this trilogy series with "First You Run" and "Then You Hide" that follows a 30 year span with the Bullet Catchers tracking triplet sisters adopted in the black market.  The birth mother was involved with an influential politician who is the father.

Then she is arrested for murder she has not committed.  He has power and has connections that helps him convict an innocent women.  Jack Culver needs Lucy Sharpe's connections to help prove her innocence.  Lucy doesn't think much of Jack and thinks he's scum of the earth until he proves himself worthy.

This book had high-octane action, sexual tension and a well written complicated storyline.

RS Review: First You Run (The Bullet Catchers) [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "First You Run" the 4th book in her Bullet Catchers series by Roxanne St. Claire.

Product Description

AN UNSTOPPABLE BODYGUARD ON THE HUNT.

A WOMAN HIDING A SECRET EVEN SHE DOESN'T KNOW. A PASSION THAT BEGINS WITH DANGER


Bullet Catcher Adrien Fletcher is on a mission to track down a baby given up in a black market adoption thirty years ago. He has a list of possible names and one tantalizing clue: the infant girl had been marked with a tiny tattoo. And since tattoo-hunting will mean getting up close and personal with the women on his list, he's the perfect man for the job. But when Fletch meets Miranda Lang, he knows she can never be just a name on his list. If she's not his target, he should move on and find the right woman, despite their electrifying attraction. But Miranda is on her own mission, and every step takes her closer to a deadly trap. Fletch may be the only man who can protect her forcing him to choose between duty and desire.

My Review:


Bullet Catcher Adrien Fletcher is on a mission to find a black market adoption baby thirty years ago. The only clue he has is a tattoo on her butt and the date when she was adopted. He has a list of women who he has to get up and personal with to actually see the tattoo. Her birth mother is imprisoned and is dying from cancer and is hoping her bone marrow will save her.

When Adrien first meets anthropologist Miranda Lang at a book speaking event it erupts into chaos with cult like members and he has to help her escape. He is on the verge of seducing Miranda when he smells blood at her apartment door and they notice a dead bird which means death. As Adrien digs deeper threats and stolen books indicate something more sinister against the professor. This complicates his investigation to locate the tattoo as he gets closer, spends more time in her company and starts having feelings for her.

Adrien is charming but quite deceptive and a mercenary while Miranda was smart but fearful. I really liked how Adrien changed from being deceptive to protective and receptive to Miranda's needs.

This is a very fast paced and deals more with the action suspense mystery than the romance. You can feel the sexual chemistry between the hero and heroine though it took awhile for them to get to the action and it was hot and steamy.

I've finished reading "Make Her Pay" the 5th book in her Bullet Catcher series by Roxanne St. Claire.

When he catches Lizzie Dare red-handed in the locked treasure room, her story of a stolen ancestral legacy convinces him to work with the sexy thief instead of turning her in -- and not just because he wants to find the real culprit. Lizzie is willing to risk everything to save the Bombay Blue Diamonds from her sworn enemy, even if that means giving in to an irresistible desire to get closer to her accomplice. But when passion hits them like a rogue wave and danger surrounds them like a school of hungry sharks, their adventure on the high seas turns treacherous...and deadly.

My Review: 
 
I highly recommend this fast paced series with great heroes/heroines, psycho villians and great storylines.
 
Con is such a great character because people think he is a thief (he's a reformed one) of beautiful things.
 
I admire Lizzie because she wants to protect what she believes belongs to her family (jewels), etc. and will do anything to ensure that happens!
 
You can feel the heat and it was quite steamy between Lizzie and Con (two/three shower scenes) and when they finally get together (you know what I mean)!!!!!
 
4/5
