Book Watch: Hot Pursuit by Suzanne Brockmann.

Posted May 29, 2009 by Rowena in Promotions | 11 Comments

Alyssa Locke is no stranger to dealing with danger. As team leader of the nation’s number one personal security company, Troubleshooters Inc., she’s seen more than her share of action, survived plenty of close calls, and holds her own with the best of them–and against the worst of them. Guarding lives is her game, and no one plays it better. But her toughest challenge will be protecting herself from a serial killer she’s been after for years–known only as “The Dentist”–who is determined to make her his ultimate trophy.

The assignment was supposed to be an easy one: teach self-defense techniques to a newly elected assemblywoman and her chief of staff after a political controversy generates a blizzard of hate mail–including death threats–from hotheads and cranks. But as soon as she mobilizes her squad of moonlighting Navy SEALs in New York City, Alyssa begins butting heads with the hard-case cop who thinks that the Troubleshooters are chasing shadows. Until they discover a dead body. And then another. Now Alyssa really has her hands full–bodyguarding two independent, busy women, managing a murder investigation, and trying to find time for her husband, Troubleshooters operative Sam Starrett, and their infant son.

Meanwhile, it wouldn’t be a Troubleshooters operation without romantic sparks and heated rivalries–and any time the SEALs of Team Sixteen are involved, there are plenty of both. But then, while investigating a suspect, Alyssa is ambushed and suddenly finds herself imprisoned by The Dentist. Cut off from everyone she loves and relies on, Alyssa must call upon all of her strength and skill to survive this final confrontation with the sadistic monster, meanwhile trusting that her Troubleshooter teammates, led by her beloved Sam, will reach her before it’s too late.

This book comes out on July 28, 2009. It’s a Sam and Alyssa book, need I say more? I am SO going to be reading and reviewing this book on Book Binge and I cannot effing wait!

This book is available from Ballantine. You can pre-order it here.

Another Sam and Alyssa Book, YAY!

Posted February 5, 2009 by Rowena in News | 15 Comments

So I just finished Dark of Night and I’ve been looking around to see what we can look forward to from Suzanne Brockmann and I’m so facking happy to see that the next Troubleshooter book will be another Sam and Alyssa story. I have been such a huge Sam fan since I first met him early on in the series and Alyssa hated his guts.

I loved Sam when we first met him in The Unsung Hero and my love for his character has carried over through the rest of this series and Sam Starrett still remains one of my most favorite heroes of all time. I can’t wait for this book and I’m so going to buy this in hard cover.

*sigh*

Look at the synopsis for this book:

Following her sizzling novel of romantic suspense Dark of Night by less than six months, New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Brockmann returns to Troubleshooters, Inc., and fan favorites Sam and Alyssa

Troubleshooter Alyssa Locke and her husband, former Navy SEAL Sam Starrett, were brought to center stage in Gone Too Far, the sixth book in Suzanne Brockmann’s sexy, suspenseful New York Times bestselling series. Now these fan favorites are back to continue their story!

Alyssa takes on the extremely public assignment of providing personal protection for Savannah von Hopf, an old friend who is running for office. While high-profile, the bodyguard job seems simple and easy enough—except Alyssa is juggling her stressful leadership position with a new baby and a husband who is her subordinate.

When Alyssa receives several disturbing messages from “the Dentist,” a serial killer she has relentlessly pursued for years, Alyssa must take action to protect those closest to her. No one is safe, even after the FBI—including Sam and Alyssa’s good friend Jules Cassidy—gets involved. But Alyssa knows that as the Dentist’s true target she must use herself as bait to catch the devious killer—before he strikes again.

So what do you guys think about that? Are you excited about reading this book? Are you excited to read another story featuring Sam and Alyssa or do you wish that they would fade away into the sunset?

This book is available from Ballantine. You can pre-order it here.
