Short review, because I read this over a month ago. It actually took me forever to read it! I had this book out in ebook form from the library three times before I read it.

Crusie and Bob Mayer co-wrote three romance-adventures/adventure-romances, Don’t Look Down, Agnes and the Hitman, and Wild Ride. They made for an interesting writing pair, but […]
