Nice. Quite dated tho. Fun to see how the genre and the author have grown.
Takes place in wisconsin and I didn't want to murder the author. Fictional town in Washburn County off Hwy 53! Spooner, Rice Lake, Rhinelander, Milwaukee, Madison (with on the square shootout!)
Yes please
I loved the phone calls in the beginning. The two bank robbers are a bit cartoonish. It wasn't perfect but it was very good. WAY too insta lovey though.

Sometimes, fluff from the $1 bin is just what I need. Formulaic cops-and-robbers romance complete with a slobbery but lovable dog. She's a bank robber, he's an FBI agent. Pursue, catch, fornicate. Repeat.
Goodreads First Read
Turner, the main character, has waited for four years for revenge for her Uncle Rusty who was blamed for embezzling for the bank he worked for. A robbery occurs at the bank where now Turner works on Saturdays while she waits for a perfect opportunity to exact revenge. When the bank robbers flee the scene Turner robs the safe deposit of the bank owner, and the man she thinks really has been embezzling. FBI agent John MacKinnon comes in to track her down and arrest her. He instantly falls for Turner though and realizes there is a lot more going on then the initial robbery and as he pursues her so is a hired killer. The story line between Turner and John keeps the book interesting but the breaks with the story of the initial robbers just is not appealing. Overall I liked the story though even though much of it is fantasy love story and two bumbling idiots.

For me this was a better than average romance. The first chapter was unusual and got me hooked. I just wish folks would give up on the librarian stereotype. I should have a sense of humor about this, but I don't have a bun or a "repressive librarian voice".
Turner Hastings uses the opportunity a bank robbery provides her to do a little stealing of her own. She empties out her bosses safe deposit box and makes sure the bank cameras catch every move. Now the FBI is on her trail and Turner finds herself falling for the very Special Agent in charge.
Good, sparkling dialogue. Loved the building of their relationship through phone calls. And the author got the Wisconsin settings mostly right.

I wish the author would change the cover and rerelease this title because it was so amazing
