Escorting Dr. Maxine O'Neil into the cave known as Devil's Hollow was Zach Douglas's job. Relishing the sparring matches with the type-A scientist was his pleasure. He ran the show in the Texas Hill Country cavern--until sabotage and murder struck the site. Hours spent in the dark, cozied up in tight quarters with Maxine had shown Zach her passionate side. Now he wanted to see the truthful one. What was in that cave that was worth dying for? Only one thing was for sure: whether Maxine liked it or not, Zach would do everything in his power to keep them from being Devil's Hollow's next casualties.

More About the Author
Kay Thomas didn't grow up burning to be a writer. As a child she wasn't even much of a reader until fourth grade. That's when she was stuck at home with the flu and her big sister read THE BLACK STALLION aloud to her. For hours she was enthralled--shipwrecked in a foreign land and riding an untamed horse across the hot desert sand. Then tragedy struck. Her sister lost her voice. (Could have been Kay's flu.) But she couldn't wait to hear what happened to Alec Ramsey--so Kay picked up that book, finished reading it herself and went in search of more adventures at the local library.
Today Kay lives in Dallas with her husband, their two children and a shockingly-spoiled Boston terrier named Jack. She writes "bulletproof" romantic thrillers for Harlequin Intrigue. Her debut novel BETTER THAN BULLETPROOF (January 2009) was a HOLT Medallion Award of Merit recipient, a Readers' Crown finalist and a Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Nominee. Her second book BULLETPROOF TEXAS was published in April 2009. And her third release, BULLETPROOF BODYGUARD, hit store shelves in April 2010 as part of Intrigue's Bodyguard of the Month series. Look for her fourth novel, BULLETPROOF HEARTS, in April 2011.

Nice integration of suspense and mystery,

This review is from: Bulletproof Texas (Harlequin Intrigue) (Mass Market Paperback)
When a grad student discovers cancer-eating microbes in a long-buried cave beneath the Texas hill country, claustrophobic scientist Maxine O'Neil is sent to investigate. If the microbes can be used to create a cure for cancer, her company will be rich and the world will benefit. Unfortunately, other companies profit from the status quo and aren't willing to let her do her work in peace.Zach Douglas loves caving and wants nothing more than to be left alone to explore the cave he discovered. When a drug company leases the land on which the cave is located, he reluctantly agrees to serve as a guide to the team of scientists, but he knows better than to trust drug companies--after all, a drug company was behind his sister's murder. But when sexy scientist Max O'Neil runs into trouble, Zach finds himself doing more than guiding--he's protecting as well, and it doesn't take long before he wants to do more than protect. Author Kay Thomas weaves together the romance and suspense angles of her story, keeping the reader engaged as Max and Zach deal with their own issues, forcing each other to grow past their fears to earn a chance at each other. Of course, there is the small matter of surviving the ruthless assassin who is intent on killing them and on destroying the priceless microbes that might spell an end to the curse of cancer.

Couldn't Put It Down,

This review is from: Bulletproof Texas (Harlequin Intrigue) (Mass Market Paperback)
Kay Thomas's Bulletproof Texas, was very riveting. On the edge of your seat...I could relate to Dr. Maxine O'Neil's fear of closed in places and her fear of heights.This is the second of her books that I have read. The other one, Better than Bulletproof was also one that I just couldn't put down..
