The Negotiator (O'Malley Series, Book 1) Author:Dee Henderson
Book Description:
In this dynamic rerelease of The Negotiator, FBI agent Dave Richman from Danger in the Shadows is back -- and about to meet Kate O'Malley. A hostage negotiator in Chicago, Kate is a legend on the force, willing to walk into any situation. Dave is a Christian, but Kate isn't. Their relationship is going to be a challenge. Kate's family, the seven O'Malleys, were orphaned or abandoned as children; they chose to become their own family. But an airline bombing, tragic family news, and the appearance of a brother Kate didn't know she had will change her family's life -- and her own -- forever.

Amateur writing style and cheesy characters. May be appreciated by young readers. I don't recommend it to seasoned readers.

Book 1 of the O'Malley series. This is Kate's story. She's a cop and a hostage negotiator. During a tense standoff in a bank, she is helped by FBI Agent Dave Richman. Dave has spent years protecting people and failure is not in his vocabulary. But now, thanks to the bank standoff, Kate is a target. Will she trust Dave to protect her? And will she allow God into her life as well?

Great story. Once you start reading you can not stop. Love the O'Malley Series - every one of them keeps you so involved with the family. You dont' want it to end.

The beginning of the OMalley series. As young orphans they joined together to form their own family. As adults they are each invovled in careers that call them to make sacrifices for the sake of others. Kate is a hostage negotiator who becomes the target of a killer. She butts heads with the man assigned to keep her safe. Kate finds herself getting closer to Dave-though she isn't sure about the GOd he believes in. Can she trust Dave? Can she trust God?

Really the second book, if you count the prequel. Another great romantic thriller.
