Sting
by Sandra Brown
Published by: Grand Central
Publication date: August 16, 2016
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense
When Shaw Kinnard encounters the incongruously elegant Jordie Bennet in a seen-better-days bayou bar, it’s not love at first sight. He’s there to kill her. Instead, he abducts her, eager to get ahold of the $30 million her brother has pocketed from his badly bent boss. Now they are on the run from said boss—and the FBI.

STING ANECDOTES
Even though it’s almost thirty years old, the movie “Top Gun” and its characters are referred to several times. If the soundtrack followed the relationship between Shaw and Jordie, it would start out with “Danger Zone” and end with “Take My Breath Away.”
