Fast Focus

by Cheryl Cooke Harrington, Anne Norman

Photographer Lexie Frost has a plan for success. All she needs is her camera and one perfect shot. What she doesn't need is another man in her life. Certainly not the brown eyed and handsome possible stalker who's been shadowing her for the past three days. What Lexie doesn't know is that her "stalker" is, in reality, FBI Agent Reilly Ward, a man with a few plans of his own. Plans that definitely do not include falling in love with the woman he's assigned to protect. As the two are about to discover, even the best laid plans go astray. Smuggled gems, a kidnapped aunt, a botched rescue, and romantic entanglements on the streets of New York change the focus of their lives forever.

When photographer Lexie Frost runs into Reilly Ward, she suspects he's a creep who's following her. She's half right. Undercover FBI agent Ward is keeping an eye on Lexie because her beloved aunt has been unwittingly drawn into a criminal enterprise with a bunch of international jewel thieves. Neither one of them expect to fall in love, but fall they do.
This was a fun read with great three-dimensional characters. Some of the FBI agents' movements seemed questionable, but I haven't researched the subject enough to definitively say it couldn't happen. Pacing is a bit too slow in the beginning and a bit too fast at the end. All in all, this was an entertaining story.

This was very good book, very light romance and mystery mix. Really enjoyed it.
