The last thing Krista Curry expected to find in a soccer stadium was a time bomb. When she alerts explosives expert Cash Dixon, she becomes a local hero. But the attention could expose her real name—and the infamous past she fought to escape. Cash promises Krista protection from the bomber’s retaliation. Yet she hesitates to trust him as she sees his suspicion about her grow with every question she dodges. She can’t expect Cash to continue to safeguard her unless she tells him the truth. Now Cash must decide if she’s an innocent woman or guilty accomplice. But the clock is ticking down—and the real bomber is still on the loose…
First Responders: Brave men and women alert and ready for danger and love.
EXPLOSIVE ALLIANCE is a romantic suspense. I read this book in one setting. I liked that Krista wasn’t “on the run” every other page in this book, that she held down a normal job and had a loving relationship with her father. I also liked that she was a “suspect” in a murder-case before she was a “suspect” in a bombing, and that just sky-rocketed from there.
Cash has an edge to him that I found appealing as a reader and I liked that he took his responsibility and job seriously. I also like the group of people he lives/works with.
I didn’t guess who the bad guy was until he was introduced. If you like romantic suspense you will love EXPLOSIVE ALLIANCE. Ms. Sleeman’s best book yet.
