Amazon.com Book Description:
SWAT Team Sniper Jasmine "Jazz" Parker can thread the eye of a needle with a bullet. As the only female sniper in the state of Colorado, Jazz is unique for more than her extraordinary marksmanship skills and cool head. Jazz Parker and her weapon defend the helpless by exacting swift and uncompromising justice. Not bad for the daughter of the town whore. 
After growing up on the seedy side of town, Jazz believed when she'd changed her name and her life at fifteen, she'd buried her past. Two years ago, she even drove away the one man she believed she could love - ex-Army Ranger turned reporter Luke Montgomery - to protect her secret.
Then, in a fleeting second, the time it takes for one clean shot, one perfect hit, to save the life of the Governor's daughter, Jazz's world begins to crumble around her. Her past and her present now threaten to destroy the life she has carefully constructed for herself. Her face and name have been splashed across the front page - by none other than Luke Montgomery - and her past has reawakened with a vengeance. A vicious enemy is bent on destroying Jazz's life, forcing her to turn to the one man she can never have in order to stop the killer before she and everyone she cares about pay with their lives. 

In Her Sights is available for pre-order, the release date for paperback and eBook is November 29, 2011. 

My Book Review:
Jasmine "Jazz" Parker leads a fulfilling life as the only female sniper on Jefferson County Sheriff's Office SWAT Team, a life that she has dedicated to defending lives and upholding justice ... that is until her hidden past comes back to threaten her life and those she cares about. With an unknown enemy trying to ruin her life, Jasmine has to lower her defenses and turn to a man she had once cared about and left, Luke Montgomery, an ex-Army Ranger. Can Jasmine and Luke work together to find out who the enemy is while holding their still smoldering passion for each other in check ... or will the enemy who has them In Her Sights succeed at destroying their lives?

Jasmine "Jazz" Parker has worked hard to create a new life for herself in Colorado, she left behind a traumatic and secret childhood back in New Mexico. Jazz is at the top of her game, she is up for lead sniper on the SWAT team, and life is good as long as she avoids letting anyone get too close to her, including Luke Montgomery, an ex-Army Ranger and the one who made her burn with passion. Just when life can't get any better, an unknown enemy from her past has found her in Colorado and is set to ruin her life. Can she turn to Luke and trust him to help her find her enemy without causing danger to him and his family, or should she stick to her plan and solve it on her  own?

In Her Sights is a fast-paced and action packed story filled with suspenseful twists and turns that will keep the reader sitting on the edge of their seat. Mixed in with the suspense is a sultry burning passion that Jazz and Luke can't deny, their rekindling romance is infused with steamy and poignant encounters that will leave the reader sighing for more. The storyline is very well written, the chapters have a consistent flow, and the characters are solid and real.

From the start, I was engrossed in Jazz and Luke's story. As a huge fan of romance and suspense thrillers, this novel had a riveting combination of both that kept me turning the pages. Fans of romantic suspense thrillers, this gripping and passionate novel is a must read!


RATINGS: 5 STARS *****
