A really enjoyable romantic suspense novel with an awkwardly shy heroine, Professor Gigi Brennan, who doesn’t have much experience with men. However, she is super-smart, and the only one who can complete an extremely complicated scientific formula that the bad guy in the story is after, therefore, making her a target. Hero Detective Hudson Kramer is not very tall, he’s unlucky with women and always finding himself relegated to friend status. But Hud is heroic and brave and he’s so very protective of heroine “G” (his nickname for Gigi which I thought was adorable). When this twosome got together the chemistry between them ignited and they made such a super-cute pair. This was a very entertaining and suspenseful story with not the usual type of hero and heroine that’s present in most romance novels, which made for a refreshing change of pace. A really good one. ( )
