Description: M.J. O’Leary is used to punching first and asking questions later. So when bounty hunter Jack Dakota tries to arrest her for bail jumping, she doesn’t go down easily. Little does Jack know, getting involved with M.J. will land him in a world of trouble. On the run from hired killers, M.J. refuses to talk about who’s after her…or why she has a massive blue diamond hidden in her purse. M.J. and Jack are drawn to each other, despite their better judgment, but can Jack learn to trust M.J. when she has so many secrets?

My Thoughts: The second book in the Stars of Mithra trilogy stars bar owner M. J. O'Leary and bounty hunter Jack Dakota. 

M. J. has just received a package from her best friend Bailey containing one of the huge blue diamonds that make up the Stars of Mithra when bounty hunter Jack Dakota grabs her because he's been told she skipped bail on an assault charge.

An argument ensues which ends up with M. J. handcuffed when the real bad guys arrive with the intent of taking M. J. from Jack. They manage to get away from the bad guys and go on the run. M. J. needs to make contact with Bailey and her other best friend Grace who must have been sent the third diamond. 

Jack is just trying to find out what is going on but he knows for sure that he has to keep M. J. safe until he finds some answers. Pursued by bad guys, they head to Grace's hidden county home in the hopes of reconnecting with her and Bailey.

Along the way, the two of them fall in love and gradually learn to trust each other. This was a very nice contemporary romantic suspense title narrated by Scott Merriman who did a good job with both the male and female voices.
