TAKING THE FALL by Margaret Chatwin

I read this some time ago, but would like to share it with you.

You can see my review here.

.
Mike had chosen another very heavily wooded area to spend the night. So wooded, in fact, that the sky was hardly visible. As a result the place was damp and cold. That was okay at the moment, because she was hot from her long uphill hike. But after helping Mike pitch the  small two man tent, eating, and finally settling down  to rest, she could  tell it was going to be a long frigid night.

BOOK BEGINNINGS

She was bound and determined to get through this on her own and that was why his presence there was so downright annoying.

.
Besides, he was a man, and Karen Hill did not need help from any man. especially not a man as good looking as Undercover Narcotics Officer Michael Tanner.

SYNOPSIS
.

Karen Hill does not need a hero clad in shining armor! She has never been saved by anyone except herself, and the last thing she needs is Michael Tanner claiming he’s going to save her now. Save her from what? As far as she’s concerned, he’s the only thing she needs saving from! Under Cover Narcotics Officer Mike Tanner is accustomed to being patient. Waiting and watching to see how things will play out. During his latest case, he has discovered that SharShay Cosmetic Company is distributing a major amount of pure cocaine and that the owner of the company, Miss Hill, is oblivious to it all. He’s content to let it stay that way, until a naive comment she makes put her life – and his – in jeopardy.

    • I didn’t mean to send that comment. My computer is acting up.

      I love that cover! I’m a sucker for thrillers, so when I see a book with a gun on it, I snatch it up! This sounds like an exciting read. Thanks for sharing it!

      • I know what you mean, Chrys. A cover can make me immediately grab a book. 🙂

  5. This sounds intriguing! I like the excerpts but that 56 does not sound fun! I’m not much of a camper in the first place and than throw in the cold and I’m definitely out!

    • Aren’t they though? So many possibilities. lol Hope you had a great weekend.

    • That could be an understatement. I love the cover too. Makes me want to pick it up and read. 🙂

    • Thanks Claudia. I love mystery novels too and I agree with you. Have a great weekend.
