Product Description
When Bullet Catcher Wade Cordell is offered a cushy assignment to track down a woman on vacation in the Caribbean and persuade her to meet her birth mother, the secret ops sharpshooter decides it's the perfect antidote to his stressful job. Except spirited and sassy Vanessa Porter Iisn't/i on vacation, she's on a hunt for a friend who has disappeared. Wade's news doesn't faze a woman who swims with the sharks on Wall Street -- Vanessa knows she's adopted and has no intention of meeting or helping the woman who gave her up in a black market scheme. But as it becomes clear that her missing friend is deep in hiding and deeper in trouble, Vanessa strikes a shaky bargain with the sexy bodyguard who's an expert at finding people who don't want to be found. How high a price will she have to pay the Bullet Catcher willing to put his life on the line for her? Will she sacrifice her pride . . . her heart . . . even her life?

 SUN, SURF, SEX AND SUSPENSE - NOT NECESSARILY IN THAT ORDER! August 16, 2008

Sun, surf, sex and suspense - Bravo! Fans of Roxanne St. Claire will surely applaud her latest read - THEN YOU HIDE - proving once again she's Queen of Suspense. The second in her trilogy of Bullet Catcher adventures is guaranteed to keep you reading through the night for the ultimate "who-done-it" conclusion. Vanessa Porter, a 31 year old Wall Street high flyer, is in the Caribbean, but not to take advantage of the sunshine. She's on a mission to track down her colleague and best friend, who mysteriously disappeared while on vacation. Meanwhile, Bullet Catcher Wade Cordell is on a mission of his own. He's been assigned to track Vanessa down. Seems Vanessa is the only chance in helping solve a thirty year old mystery and save a woman's life - a convicted murderer who happens to be her birth mother. Ms. St. Claire treats her readers to 349 pages of a wild ride in the Caribbean sunshine with this latest Bullet Catcher adventure! Be sure and watch for the last book of the trilogy - NOW YOU DIE (available September 2008). Mine is already on order.
I liked that I didn't like Vanessa. August 15, 2008

In this continuing story after Fist You Run, the Bullet Catchers are again hunting for triplet sisters whose mother gave them up for adoption. The mother was convicted of murder and is now dying in prison and needs a bone marrow transplant from one of her daughters who may be a donor match. Enter Vanessa Porter, a Wall Street barracuda, who does everything like a bat out of hell. Wade Cordell, Bullet Catcher and southern gentlemen, finds her abrasive and unlady like because of her foul language. But yet they have a chemistry that I think would have sufficed in this story as nothing more than lust and would have ended there in the real world. But that's why this is fiction and I definitely like this kind of fiction. It had plenty of action with car chases, helicopters, murder and guns. I enjoyed this book more than I did First You Run. It was a great book with great characters, from Vanessa to her gay friend Clive. We find out a bit more about Lucy and Jack and I can't wait for the next book. Roxanne's books are always fabulously entertaining. br /
Compelling story with great characters August 11, 2008

Well this may be one of my favorite Bullet Catchers so far. This book is far more complex than some of the others in this series. We get more of She Who Runs The Bullet Catchers as well as her erstwhile lover (or is that lovers?) which is always a good thing for me. br / br /The heroine is obsessed with finding her friend who doesn't seem to want to be found. She's sure he's suicidal. Her emotional motivation is exceptionally done. I found myself engrossed in this book. The minute I heard it was out, I downloaded it for my reader and stayed up half the night. Another night's sleep sacrificed to the words of St. Claire. br / br /The hero thinks he's getting a cush job but when he arrives in the island paradise, bullets convince him otherwise. He has to keep her safe and keep his promise to her to help her find her friend. br / br /The subplot involves a gay man who is suspected of murder. I found this character to be very realistic without being overdone the way some authors do. He wasn't a comic relief at all. br / br /I have loved all of the Bullet Catcher series with only one leaving me a bit flat. For another great read by St. Claire go into her back list for "French Twist". Awesome thriller romance that is a scary rollercoaster ride.

Roxanne St. Claire continues her pulse pounding Bullet Catcher series in Then You Hide. br / br /Wade Cordell agrees to take what appears on the surface as a cake assignment. He needs to track down a woman on a Caribbean vacation. Wall Street hot shot Vanessa Porter. br /What he thought was an easy assignment is anything but easy. Seems Vanessa has her own agenda. br / br /Vanessa Porter is using the cruise in the Caribbean as a disguise. She is searching for her friend Clive Easterbrook who has disappeared. Seemed easy enough until Wade Cordell comes along. Wade wants to bring her back to the states to save her dying birth mother. Vanessa knows all about her jailbird momma and wants nothing to do with her. This is until she makes a deal with Wade. If he helps her find her friend she will go with him back to the states. br / br /There are people who don't want Vanessa to find her friend and they send her on a wild chase across the islands. But there are others who want to harm both Vanessa and Wade. br / br /Vanessa and Wade start out with opposite agendas but soon their main goal is to stay alive. Along the way their attraction in the tropical paradise becomes hotter then anything either has known. br / br /Then You Hide will keep you turning every page to find out who is trying to sabotage Vanessa search for her friend. Vanessa and Wade's chemistry is electric and their banter is hot and spicy. I can't wait for the next story in this series. br /

I returned the book about half way thru - this woman is so awful I couldn't read any more. She's loud, pushy, demanding, obnoxious, lies... all of which I could put up with if she used her head at all...or had a sense of humor...or appreciated any of the help others give her instead of insisting they HAVE to...or had any redeaming qualities at all. One review mentions she is unlikeable but later you understand why she has built up walls. I get why she has built walls but don't see what that has to do with being such a witch. Also, she makes a deal with Wade, an awesome guy, but doesn't feel she has to do her part because SHE HAD HER FINGERS CROSSED BEHIND HER BACK. Seriously. Oh yeah, and her whole anti-gun thing. Very smart. br / br /Also, at half way I'm feeling nooo chemistry, sexual tension or anything even close between these two. In fact, when they do start to get hot and heavy she stops cold when she hears a text come in from her office, then she returns calls and get's involved in a deal. Wow, totally hot. br / br /I could go on but I've wasted enough time on this book already. The bottom line is Wade deserves so much better. And frankly, so do we.
