Thanks to Simon & Schuster I have (1) copy of Hunted by Karen Robards to giveaway. To enter leave a comment along with your email address. Open to U.S. & Canada. The winner will be announce on January 31st.
’Twas the night before Christmas . . .
and dozens of rich, influential hostages are trapped inside a sprawling
lakefront mansion in New Orleans. The perp? Detective Reed Ware, model
cop turned outlaw. After receiving a panicked call from Hollis “Holly”
Bayard, a teenage street tough with a penchant for amateur sleuthing who
stumbles upon the scene of a drug-deal-turned- murder, Ware finds his
and his friend’s lives in dire danger. The crime Holly witnessed could
be the biggest police cover-up this side of New Orleans—and no one’s
talking. Driven to desperate measures to uncover the truth, Ware stages a
coup at a Christmas party for the New Orleans elite, including the
mayor, the council chairman, the sheriff, and the superintendent of
police, who just happens to be hostage negotiator Caroline Wallace’s
estranged father.
Cool, calm, controlled. That’s
Caroline’s reputation. But when she’s brought in to talk Ware off the
proverbial ledge, she realizes no amount of false promises is going to
placate this man, who looks even hotter than he did years ago when
seventeen-year-old Caroline tried to seduce him. It was his duty to
protect her family then. Now it’s her turn . . . if she can think fast
enough over the pounding of her heart.
When Caroline becomes wrapped up
in the drama, it’s clear the sizzling tension she shared with Ware never
let up. And the harder she tries to defuse the situation, the more she
begins to wonder whose side she’s really on.
Karen Robards writes good suspense; thank you and Simon and Schuster for the giveaway!

I've been reading a lot of historical and small town contemporary romance lately - I used to read more romantic suspense (including Karen Robards stories) - I think it's time to read some more!

I don't think I have ever read a story with a hostage negotiator as the heroine but it sounds pretty interesting.
