Chasing Booty by Shannon Leigh


Chasing Booty by Shannon Leigh
Publisher: Amber Heat
Genre: Erotic Sci-Fi


Summary:
When cops can’t catch the most-wanted criminals, they hire Gaelyn. She comes from a long line of bounty hunters, including her father, uncle, and grandfather. Extensive training in weaponry, hand-to-hand combat, and adverse conditions have seasoned her into a formidable opponent against any contracted hit, whether male, female, alien, or human. She has little fear of the unknown and thrives on adventure.

Only one other hunter matches her status—Reese, a Trøndite from the small planet of Sør-Trøndalag in the Capricornus Sector. And the man has a knack for stealing her contracts. Both cunning and gorgeous, the mix doesn’t seem quite fair. But attractiveness holds little power over money. Reese had beaten Gaelyn out of a half-year’s pay a scarce three months ago, and she will be damned if he outwits her again.

Thinking she’s duped Reese back onto Jupiter, Gaelyn isn’t too happy when she runs into him on Quaoar at the Blue Moon, an authentic hole-in-the-wall bar tucked at the end of a narrow alley in what would be considered the rough part of town; just the place to find her contracted hit. But Reese not only has the information she needs to find her mark, he also has a business proposal that’s too tempting to pass up. And a partnership with Reese just might prove rewarding in a way Gaelyn never expects...

My Review: Chasing Booty is a science fiction book about a human woman, Gaelyn, and a Trondite, Reese. They are both bounty hunter and nearly enemies. While Shannon Leigh did a great job of describing them in detail, especially Reese, I felt that maybe there could have been a bit more character development. Their dialogue was realistic and the plot was interesting. I enjoyed reading about all the different sorts of aliens and planets and am amazed at the imagination it takes to create such creatures and places. Gaelyn and Reese meet up and decide to partner up for this particular bounty contract, resulting in an amusing clash of tempers and scorching passion. As for the ending, I can’t help but think that there is much more to this story and I wonder if there will be a sequel coming soon.
