Maddie Kincaid and Luke Callahan are strangers running from their complicated pasts. As they are running from their own situations, they stumble into each other's lives and take a tumble into each other's beds. And, as always when that happens, life gets even more complicated and confusing. Hard to imagine that life could get any more complicated for the beautiful, red-headed Maddie. She just happens to be the daughter to one of the world's biggest rock stars. After a series of bad boyfriends and run-ins with the law, she changes her name and is living a quiet life in Brazos Bend, Texas. She has opened up a personal caregiver business called Home for Now and is an upstanding community member. Unfortunately, one of her clients dies and she unwittingly uncovers drugs when she cleans the residence. She ends up on the run as she fears for her life. Ex-DEA agent Luke grew up in Brazos Bend and was a hell- raiser in high school. He hasn't been back for years. When Maddie begs him to help her, he can't resist. Maddie and Luke end up on the wrong end of several violent acts in this small, quiet town. Is the violence linked to the drugs, Maddie's past or something else? GIVE HIM THE SLIP is a fiery romance with a hefty dose of mystery to keep things interesting. Geralyn Dawson does a masterful job creating interesting, likable and memorable characters to support a fulfilling romantic mystery novel.

SUMMARY

Maddie Kincaid thought she'd finally found the simple life when she moved to Brazos Bend and started her own business. She never dreamed that helping a gentle old man would force her to run for her life, right into the arms of the infamous Luke "Sin" Callahan. He has just settled into a fishing vacation, and the last thing he needs on his line is a long-legged redhead stowaway with secrets in her heart and killers on her trail. Lucky for her, he's deadlier than the guys who are chasing her. Unfortunately for him, she's gorgeous, smart and determined to make it on her own. When the secrets start spilling and the nights heat up, Luke realizes he faces a new sort of danger - losing the woman he loves. Can he win the battle for her heart? Or will she give him the slip?
