Book Type: Mass Market Paperback

This book surprised me in that it is about an 'older' couple and their reconciliation (for lack of a better word). Haley King (Hannah) is separated from her bounty hunter husband, Greg, and two grown sons Marc and Jake because she investigated and testified against a drug lord then entered the Witness Protection Program. She returns to her husband in L.A. six years later, in trouble because her boss has disappeared. The story takes the family to Tijuana on the trail of an assassin.
I kept getting the feeling that this story needed something more. I found it hard to believe that a woman who was married for 17 years to an alpha male would disappear w/o a word to her family for six years. I also find it hard to believe that a woman in her mid 40's and a man pushing 50 are supposed to have the bodies or the sexual stamina that the author describes. The story was good as a whole but some parts were vague and others unbelievable. I will read the next two books in this series because I already have them, but I doubt that I will look for more from this author.
