"Give Him the Slip" is the first in a new series by Geralyn Dawson. The story is about the Callahan brothers... Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. While they might all be named after the saints, they are a bunch of hot blooded, sexy sinners.

This first book is about Luke Callahan, who is known in his small Texas town as "Sin" Callahan. He is a recently retired DEA agent who is trying to get over the loss of his partner while figuring out what to do with the rest of his life. Little does he know that a spunky redhead is going to help him figure it all out - whether he wants her to or not!!!

Maddie Kincaid is on the run from some bad guys and she is in search of the man she has been told can help her. Instead of finding him, she finds Luke. She gets trapped on a boat with Luke and when he figures out that she was sent by his father he takes an immediate disliking to the stowaway. The Callahan boys have a decades long hate/hate relationship with the senior Callahan and Luke knows that anything involving the man is never good. Convinced that Maddie is conning him, Luke does everything he can to get rid of her as fast as possible. But before he can get her out of his life, Maddie gets ahold of his heart.

While Luke and Maddie try to figure out who is out to get her they hall head over lust with each other. Luke, of course, does everything he can to keep his heart in check, but never quite figures out how to keep from falling head over heels for the mysterious Maddie Kincaid.

This is a great book. It has laughs, mystery, tears, and triumph. We get to know a little bit about all of the Callahan boys in this first book and the end of the book came much too soon for me. I can't wait to read the rest!!!

The Callahan brothers were notorious in their hometown of Brazos Bend, Texas. This is the story of 'Sin' Luke Callahan and Maggie Kincaid, the daughter of a bigger-than-life rock star. Maggie has moved to Brazos Bend and has created a normal life, that she wants to protect.

However, Maddie soon finds that she needs help because she has found several million dollars worth of trouble and hasn't a clue how to stay alive when the real owners come looking for their stuff.

One of her clients suggests a solution, Luke Callahan, who doesn't want to be anyone's problem solver. He's licking his wounds from losing his DEA partner and quitting his job.

At first, I thought this was pure escapist reading with humor and hot action. However, there's an underlying problem that Ms. Dawson handles adroitly (which will obviously continue through the 3 books). I enjoyed this quick read.

When Maddie Kincaid arrives on his yacht unexpectedly, Luke Callahan is shocked and disbelieving of her story. Drugs and murder in his small home town - unbelievable. Maddie works her way into his heart though and he follows her back home to protect her from whatever forces are at work in Brazos Bend. The sexual tension between Maddie and Luke is intense and the sex is HOT. Luke is fighting moving back to the town his estranged father controls. For many reasons, none of his sons will speak to Branch and want nothing to do with him or Brazos Bend. Maddie has her hands full trying to bring Luke and his father back together as well as keeping Luke in town.

I very much enjoyed the Callahan boys and since I read the second book in the series years ago (Matt's story) and don't remember it at all, I might have to read it again before I go on to Mark's story. These are seriously hot bad boys but with a tender hidden romantic streak a mile wide which makes for great reading.
