First available the the general public on July 21, New York Times and USA Today best selling author Karen Robards latest novel "Hush" is a suspenseful love story which is Robards signature theme for her more than 40 books.
Riley Cowan, a gorgeous natural red-head is the focal female who sometimes deceives the FBI and CIA when it comes to information leading to unaccounted billions of dollars tucked away in 137 different bank accounts by her ex father-in law. Cowan also has the hots for the main male in "Hush," FBI agent Finn Bradley who also gains immediate lust for Cowan upon their first meeting. Despite the intense sexual tension between Riley and Finn, they control their primitive instincts due to police and client professionalism well past the half way point of the book.
Jeff Cowan, Riley's ex husband is found hanged to death and Riley takes his cell phone which is vital to the FBI, CIA and other nefarious characters in the maze of "Hush." George Cowan, the father of Jeff is in jail for business fraud and the police and criminals alike are having a hard time believing that the billions of dollars was simply lost or entirely spent.
The story in "Hush" covers a lot of territory and really gets going when it's found out there is a book existing with all the banks and account numbers for the billions of dollars George has stolen from his business clients. The people who hung his son Jeff also kidnapped his 17-year-old daughter Emma Cowan, who Riley is very close with. Before all is revealed and Riley and Finn finally consummate their adult relationship a lot of questions arise.
The billion dollar question is whether or not the FBI and CIA only want the billions of dollars and don't even try and save the life of innocent Emma.
Riley and Finn first meet after Riley is attacked while taking a bath. "Hush" is an R-rated book because of violence, profanity and sexuality. Agent Finn first saw Riley naked and his eyes like what he calls a world class ass and that she's a natural red-head in the bikini area. Riley likes his tallness and obviously gym fit body. Riley and Finn also possessed depth in character.
"Hush" is a three and a half star page turner. Every chapter continues exactly where the last one left off, and page after page leaves the reader wanting more, until the very end.
