Prologue
If tenacity had a face, Lucy Sharpe was looking at it.
A tornado of determination brewed in angry eyes. A defiant jaw set against anything that got in its way. Even her delicate nostrils flared as Sage Valentine leaned over Lucy's desk and declared, "You owe me, Lucy. Big."
A hundred responses echoed through Lucy's mind, a thousand ways to say hello for the first time in thirteen years, a million ways to reach out to her sister's daughter and close the chasm that time and blame had formed between them.
She remained as impassive as she would be with any other potential client being turned away. "I'm sorry. I can't help you."
"Can't or won't?" Sage crossed her arms and peered down at her aunt, tilting her head. "Big difference."
Tenacity and attitude. Sage didn't look like Lydia Sharpe, but she obviously had a few of her mother's traits. "This job isn't right for the Bullet Catchers," Lucy said. "My company is a security firm."
"I thought you did investigations."
"Only as it relates to the security of our clients and the principals we protect."
"Come on, Lucy." Sage tapped the desk impatiently. "With all your contacts in government and law enforcement, after all those years in the CIA? You have to be able to get information I can't." She closed her eyes with a whisper-soft sigh. "I wouldn't ask you if it weren't important."
Lucy almost smiled. "I did check the temperature in hell when you called."
Sage dropped into the guest chair that she'd refused two minutes earlier, leaning elbows on the colossal writing table between them. "Proof that I am desperate."
Proof that she was resourceful. Another trait of Lydia's.
"Let me tell you what I have." Inches from Lucy's fingertips lay a file folder with details about www.takemetonite.com, a fantasy website run by computer nerds and supported by young women with more money than common sense. The file contained nothing that a dogged journalist like Sage couldn't have figured out on her own. For a Bullet Catcher file it was remarkably thin, but Lucy's sources had revealed enough to know that her niece was wasting her time seeking retribution and responsibility where there was none to be found.
"Takemetonite.com is a privately owned business set up to conduct mock kidnappings and subsequent fantasy rescues strictly for personal entertainment," Lucy said. "They check out and are, for lack of a better word, legitimate."
"So who owns it? Who does these kidnappings? Who polices this? How can it be legal? And who kidnapped my roommate the night she died?" Sage's frustration was clear in the last question.
"The site is owned by a company called Fantasy Adventures, a division of a large software gaming company in Southern California. FA has about forty employees who staff four operations in the U.S., including one in Boston, with plans to open about six more in the coming year. They are profitable and private about what they do."
Sage leaned back in the chair. "And what they do is kidnap women."
"Yes. No doubt you've heard of thrill sites, where people can arrange to do or experience just about anything for a price?"
"Anything," Sage said pointedly. "Including commit a murder."
"True. Those sites are hidden deep underground and are most definitely against the law. But takemetonite.com is much more mainstream, a company that will arrange for someone to have the experience and adrenaline rush of a nonviolent abduction, followed by a rescue performed by handsome young men. And what these young women do to...thank their rescuer is paid for on a sliding scale."
"So the men, the rescuers, they're like prostitutes?" Sage's expression was a mix of disgust and disbelief. "The last thing Keisha Kingston had to do was pay for sex."
"She didn't," Lucy said. "Your roommate was never kidnapped. Her suicide appears to have been unrelated to the fact that she'd registered with the site."
Those delicate nostrils flared again. Was that in response to this information, or the word 'suicide,' sitting between them like the proverbial thousand-pound elephant in the room, with all the same ability to crush them both?
Sage shook her head. "Keisha was one of the most intelligent, optimistic, and joyful people I've ever known. She'd be the last person to commit suicide."
"Her death was thoroughly investigated and the autopsy was unambiguous."
"Unambiguous as to how she died, not why. I want to know what happened while I was out of town for two months. I want to know what changed her life that much." She narrowed her determined eyes again. "Signing up for this thrill site was way out of character for her. As soon as I found it on her computer, it felt like a lead to me."
A lead. Sage was trained to sniff out a story, a cause, and a place to assign blame.
"Besides," Sage added, "she left our apartment precisely at the appointed time of her kidnapping. Two neighbors saw her."
"But she was found back in that apartment the next day," Lucy reminded her. "With a suicide note in her own handwriting and enough ephedra in her body to kill a cow."
"But she could have been kidnapped first," Sage pointed out.
"She never showed, which is very common. As many as one out of four registered participants bail before the abduction occurs. Apparently, fantasy abductions and rescues have become the surprise gift to give among more adventurous women, but not all of them want that type of surprise."
"But no one gave her this as a gift," Sage insisted. "She registered herself."
Lucy angled her head in agreement. "And the Boston operation of takemetonite.com confirmed that. However, she didn't show for her appointment. The abduction and rescue never took place and their records are rock solid. Believe me, I checked."
Sage released another frustrated sigh. "Lucy, you may not know this, but I'm an investigative journalist. If I could have just gotten past voice mail with that company, I could have figured out this much myself."
"I have no doubt of that." Lucy had followed her niece's every move in the last thirteen years. She'd read every story Sage had ever published in any magazine or newspaper, saving them in the same file drawer where she kept Lydia's work. But Sage didn't know that. Or care.
Lucy picked up the manila folder and set it in front of Sage. "But I did get past voice mail and I'm confident their records are accurate. You may have this."
Lucy resisted the urge to reach across the desk and touch her niece's hand. The gesture would not be appreciated or reciprocated. Instead, she cleared her throat and masked her sympathy with a cool tone. "I know that this kind of death is very difficult to accept, but your answers don't lie with that website. I suggest you let this go."
Sage stood up and slipped her handbag over her shoulder. "I didn't ask for your advice. I asked for your help. But never mind -- I'll get what I need myself." Without bothering to take the file, she left the library. Lucy sat motionless while the voice of her new assistant floated down the hall, the front door to the estate closed, then a car motor revved and tires squealed out of the driveway.
Only then did Lucy take a deep and shuddering breath.
So that was it. Thirteen years of estrangement had come down to a six-minute meeting that ended with a thud. Well, there was no one to blame but...
Norman Valentine. And Sage's father was long past the point of shouldering blame.
She opened the file and leafed through the few pages. Takemetonite.com was legal and she had no doubt that the operation had nothing to do with Keisha Kingston's suicide, but she'd done a miserable job of convincing Sage of that.
Lucy closed her eyes. Her niece had grown to be as beautiful and spirited as her mother, even though she hadn't inherited Lydia's dark eyes and black hair, and her pale skin belied the Far Eastern coloring from previous generations. But she had inherited her mother's nose for news and trouble and a story, along with that terrierlike quality that made Lydia Sharpe one of the best reporters ever to write for the Washington Post.
Lucy had no doubt of what Sage would do next, and she was powerless to stop her...but not powerless to protect her.
Any Bullet Catcher could do that, but she needed someone who could be believed in the role. Someone who wouldn't demand to know who Sage Valentine was, and why she was receiving protection she didn't want; someone who never, ever questioned Lucy's judgment.
Johnny Christiano. Utterly trustworthy, blindly loyal, and every woman's fantasy. Sage would never know who really rescued her...and Johnny would never know why.

Time line error reduced rating from 4.5 to 4 stars
By Louise H.
I enjoy Roxanne St. Claire's books and was throroughly enjoying 'Take Me Tonight.' It is well done with good characters. Having read other Bullet Catcher novels I was looking forward to knowing a little more about Lucy Sharpe and what happened to her relationship with niece Sage. Admittedly it is a side story but my curiousity was peeked. Throughout this book Lucy is described as being 11 years older than Sage. Something happened when Sage's mother died and the two women have been estranged since. However at the end of the novel Lucy is described as having 'introduced her CIA boss, Sage's father, to Lucy's sister, Sage's mother. How can an 11 year old child be working for the CIA? Otherwise I really liked the story.
P.S. I wrote the author after I wrote this review and received a very lovely reply. The discrepancy was just one of those unfortunate oversights by all involved. And I would definitely recommend this book.

Rock Solid Writing
By Arwen Nightstar
St Claire hits another solid one. While this may not be out of the park for me like some of her others, it was still a very well-written book. The premise certainly can't be said to be run-of-the-mill nor can the characters. The heroine is desperate for answers about her roommate's death. She knows it wasn't a suicide and she is willing to do anything to get the information. That includes offering her body if she has to.
The hero, one of St. Claire's always sexy, always alpha Bullet Catchers, is trying to infiltrate the organization who offers up "romantic" kidnappings and other edgy sexual fantasies. St. Claire delves into a very dark world with this book and does it well.
I recommend this one to anyone who likes their suspense taut, dark and edgy.

Intriguing and Suspenseful
By Judy Gasperini
This is the first Bullet Catcher paperback I've read and it intrigued me from the start. The notion of getting kidnapped for a thrill seemed unnatural to me, so I had to find out more. Then, Sage really gets into the act just to investigate what really happened to her roommate who supposedly committed suicide. As surprising as this was, the book only gets better with lots of suspense, a few steamy sex scenes, and some cooking thrown in for good measure. I don't think I'll ever look at a cannoli the same again. Ha-ha. A great read!
