First You Run by Roxanne St. ClaireConnie's review of First You Run (The Bullet Catchers, Book 4) by Roxanne St. Claire
Romantic Suspense by Pocket Star 25 Mar 08

There are three other books already released in St. Claire's Bullet Catchers series: Kill Me Twice (Book 1), Thrill Me to Death (Book 2), and Take me Tonight (Book 3). First you Run is the first novel I have read by Roxanne St. Claire. I am happy to say the novel stands alone and I hope to get a chance to read more by her.

Bullet Catcher Adrien Fletcher asks a favor of Lucy Sharpe, the operative in charge of the group, in order to get the go-ahead to find a 'shelia' for a friend. This isn't just any woman but one who was an illegally adopted baby.
