The Heist / Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg / 295 pages

Evanovich and Goldberg join forces to create two new characters we are sure to see popping up in new books.  Kate O'Hare is an FBI agent and Nick Fox is a con man that she spends years trying to nail.  She finally gets him and he escapes.   Spoiler alert....They end up as teammates to set up cons on behalf of the FBI to net bigger criminals.  There's this sexual tension going on between them so you wonder if it's going to be a Morelli/Ranger sort of standoff or if Kate and Nick really pair up!  Kate is a more intense, skilled & driven Stephanie Plum without the funny sidekicks and stressed out mom.  It will be interesting to see how Evanovich fans accept the new characters.
