Julia Harper aka Elizabeth Hoyt |
|
|
 |
While Julia Harper doesn’t ring a bell, you’ll love this authors lush historical romances written as Elizabeth Hoyt. She’s picked up a new name and whole new style of writing in this sassy modern romance. For most people, being held at gunpoint by inept bank robbers disguised as Yoda and SpongeBob SquarePants would make for a bad day. For local librarian Turner Hastings, it's an opportunity. Using the distraction to pull a little heist of her own, she dives into a new life on the run.
FBI Special Agent John MacKinnon always gets his man. Or woman. After watching Turner Hastings dump the contents of a safety deposit box into her purse on a surveillance tape, he knows this case won’t be run of the mill. What he doesn't expect is how the phone contact between him and his bounty is about to blur the line between professional ambition and personal desire. When bullets from a hired hitman start flying in Turner's direction, giving weight to her claims of injustice, John is willing to cross any line to save her life, even if it means losing his own.
How NOT to conduct a bank robbery:
One was tall and spindly in that way some guys are. The kind of skinny where you can't help but wonder what, exactly, is holding up their jeans because they have no rear end to speak of. He was wearing a black Eminem T-shirt and a Yoda mask, and clutching a sawed-off shotgun in an uncertain way, as if he’d never held one before. The second man was short and hairy and wore a SpongeBob mask. He held his shotgun with a bit more knowledge than Yoda, but, under the present circumstances, that wasn't nearly as reassuring as it should have been.
"This is a floor! Everybody on the stickup!" SpongeBob screamed.
Everyone in the small bank paused, trying to digest those two sentences. Turner opened her mouth, thought better about it, and shut it again. Marge, the only customer inside the bank if you didn't count the robbers, had no such inhibitions. "This is a stickup. Everybody on the floor." |
