Part Native American, Sky McCoy has never fit in so he's crafted a life as a raptor rehabilitator that allows him to remain isolated amid the nature and birds he loves and with which he is at ease. In truth, that's only part of why he's in hiding. The other part has to do with his youthful past, a part that continues to haunt him even now.

Kelly Trayhern is a grounded helicopter pilot, in need of physical and emotional healing. She and Sky were close once upon a time. Now he must sacrifice his solitude to help Kelly as she once helped him.

I typically enjoy books that give me a heroine I can admire, a hero who is hot, and a look at a slice of life I might not otherwise know about. Lindsay McKenna's DANGEROUS PREY gave me all of those things, including opening a window in the world of raptor rehabilitation. It was an interesting story but for me, it could have been about a hundred pages shorter and not missed a single beat. After some early events that set the stage for the rest of the tale, it plodded along for the first two hundred pages. Then, the action picked up and moved along at a swift pace, making the second half of the book a pleasurable read.
