April Smith is a really good writer. Her characters are believeable, her plots make sense and keep things moving, and she has a great eye for the telling detail. She doesn't waste words.
I remember reading this book many years ago and not liking it all that much. On this read, however, I can't imagine what my complaint was. This is a great story, well told.
One thing, though: The lead character's boyfriend. I have some problems with him, starting with his name. In real life, nobody is named 'Sterling McCord.' In real life, nobody named 'Sterling McCord' is a super-buff weapons expert with years of experience in Delta Force. And in real life, nobody named 'Sterling McCord' who is a super-buff weapons expert with years of experience in Delta Force is also a lasso-spinning cattle-roping cowboy from Texas in his spare time. I mean, c'mon.
