The scenic route

Katie Ruggle

Book - 2024

"Felicity Pax loves her job. She craves excitement, and being a bounty hunter gives her that in spades. So when her estranged mother disappears with a small fortune in tow, Felicity chases her like she would any other skip. Too bad she didn't barter on having increasingly infuriating (and infuriatingly hot) PI Bennett Green on her tail. Bennett's got a job to do, and if that means shadowing Felicity...well...he's had worse assignments. Even if he's 99% sure the increasingly intriguing bounty hunter is leading him on a wild goose chase through the Rockies. If she has to drag her PI tail through endless quirky mountain towns in order to shake him, that's what she's determined to do...but it isn't long b...efore Felicity's intended distraction turns up a mystery worth solving-and Bennett becomes the unexpected partner she never realized she needed. As things heat up, Felicity will have to decide what's most important to her: staying one step ahead of the "enemy" or giving herself freedom to experience the adventure of a lifetime."--

Review by Library Journal Review

Felicity Pax, the youngest of five bounty-hunter sisters, knew that her estranged mother was trouble before she skipped town with a fortune in stolen jewels. Felicity is distracted from her quest to find her mother, however, by a newcomer in town, PI Bennett Green. Bennett's been hired by an insurance company to recover the stolen necklace and is pretty sure that following Felicity is a wild goose chase, but he can't resist the distracting lure of the feisty recovery agent. Soon the two of them are teaming up, with the help of a quirky group of locals, to take down an escaped meth dealer and the militia group who might be harboring him. As the danger heats up, so does Felicity and Bennett's attraction to each other. They might not leave town with their lives--or their hearts--still intact. VERDICT Ruggle (Fish Out of Water) kicks off her latest series, "Beneath the Wild Sky," with a novel offering a delicious romance, laugh-out-loud banter, and edge-of-your-seat suspense that will keep the pages turning.--Rebecca Moe
