*Update* I enjoyed the book for all the reasons mentioned below. I found the backstory and the resolution much more believable than the prequel to the series. This book survives round two of the purge from my personal collection.

Reading this book brought back memories of how much I loved them back when I read them for the first time in high school. (Aka back when I thought 30something was old...). The plot moves along well. Henderson introduces the O'Malley family well avoiding page upon page of introduction and backstory. She wisely leaves that for each character's own story. One thing I found interesting was the difference in airport security. This book was written and takes place before 9/11, such a huge difference. 
I highly recommend this book and series and can't wait to read the rest of them.

Impressed by her professionalism and attracted to her personally, Dave starts courting Kate, only to discover that she's not a Christian, a major stumbling block for him. He's also about to find out that falling in love with a hostage negotiator is one thing, but keeping her safe is another!
