I recently received First Do No Evil by Carey Baldwin for review from the author. This medical thriller attracted my attention because I was in the mood for a good thriller. Here is the description:

One killer is in her blood. The other is in her house.

There's a killer lurking in Dr. Skylar Novak's family tree: the gene for breast cancer. That's why her brilliant brother invented the Bella vaccine. But even if the miracle drug protects her from the cancer that took her mother's life, it can't save Sky from the flesh and bone evil stalking her in secret. 

When the killer strikes, detective Daniel Benson finds himself in the wrong place at the right time. The bold detective manages to save Sky's life...just in time for her to return the favor. Survival leads to seduction, and Danny risks everything--his career, even his life, to keep Sky safe. But will the buried sins they uncover cost him her heart? 

Danny's strong arms may hold her close, but only Sky can stop the terror that's coming next...


Warning: Contents include: One heart-melting hero--good luck getting this delicious detective out of your head. One reluctant heroine--wielding a Glock was never on her to-do list. One crazed villain--an entire flock of baa baa black sheep won't be enough to put you to sleep. And a lifesaving vaccine with one deadly side effect--murder.

Teaser:

Halston whirled, slapped a hand across her chest and blurted, "Dr. Novak, you scared the crap out of me."

Considering how full of crap the leggy pharmaceutical rep was, Sky doubted that one little scare had been enough to clean her out. She was tempted to throw in a "boo" for good measure.
