Kill Shot by Susan Sleeman


Some fears haunt you forever...
until they become reality.

     As the ballistics and weapons expert for the FBI's special tas force ncknamed the White Knights, Rick Cannon knew the Department of Defense was developing self-steering bullets--which have one hundred percent accuracy that can turn even a ovice into a lethal sniper--and always feared they would eventually end up in the wrong hands.
     When a homeless vet is killed with a smart bullet, it's clear the ammunition has been stolen, and Rick's greatest fear has come true. As the lead agent on the investigation, he needs to find the thief  before the technology ends up in the wrong hands. The only witness to the miurder is Olivia Dobbs, who happens to be the victim's theapist, well known for her success in counseling veterans with PTSD, which also makes her a suspect.
     Despite the mutual attraction that immediately sparks between them, Rick can't--no, he won't--let Olivia compromise his investigation. But when the sniper they're trailing trains his rifle on her, Rick must recall all the skills he learned as a Marine to make sure the next bullet fired isn't a kill shot that takes out Olivia.

My Thoughts:

I have wanted to read a book by Susan Sleeman for some time now. Her newest book, Kill Shot is the second book in her White Knights series. While I haven't read the first book in the series I found this book read just fine as a stand-alone. However, I loved it so much the first book in the series, Fatal Mistake, now resides in my To Be Read pile.

Kill Shot is a fast-paced novel with twists and turns throughout. The heroine, Dr. Olivia Dobbs, is a psychologist who has several former military veterans as her patients that she treats for PTSD. The hero of the story, Rick Cannon, is an ex-Marine turned FBI agent and he enters the story when Olivia's patient is murdered by a stolen self-steering bullet.

Rick and Olivia have a strange relationship. While they are attracted to each other, Rich can't stop looking at her as a suspect. They both have issues from their past but Ms. Sleeman works them through these issues and ties up the story quite nicely.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good romantic suspense novel.

On a 5-Star Scale - 5 Stars!!!!!
