Mercenary rescues famous romsus author, who the hires him to find out the people behind her kidnapping. A pair of rather strong leads, with him being alpha-protective but not jerkish, and her being super tough, but with realistic moments of weakness. He's very gentle with her but he never coddles her.
A bit of insta-attraction, but it took a while before they do anything about it. Their romance works for me - she makes him want permanence and he supports her through it all. The suspense fell a little short, however - a very quick wrap up after all the investigative action and the motive is a little odd. Still an entertaining read, plus cute dogs alert!
