SHE is a director of dog food commercials who’s just been recruited to finish a four-day movie shoot. But as soon as Lucy Armstrong arrives on set, she discovers that the staff is in chaos, the make-up artist is suicidal, and the stunt director just happens to be her ex-husband. That, and the temperamental lead actor has just acquired as an advisor a Green Beret who has the aggravating habit of always being right.
 
HE thought that hiring on as a military consultant for a movie star was a to-die-for deal: easy work, easy money, easier starlets. But his first day on the job, Captain J.T.

Praise for Don't Look Down

“This first collaboration between bestselling romance writer Crusie and adventure-thriller writer Mayer is a rare delight. Mayer’s delectably dry sense of humor perfectly complements Crusie’s brand of sharp wit, and together the two have cooked up a sexy, sassy, and smart combination of romance and suspense that is simply irresistible.”—Booklist
 
“Bless the day that Crusie and Mayer sat down to chat, for this collaboration is inspired!”—Romantic Times BOOKreviews (Top Pick)
 
“Noted romance/chick-lit author Crusie (Bet Me) and adventure author Mayer (Z: A Dave Reilly Novel) team up [and] the writing is seamless.” —Library Journal
 
 “The two writers/two viewpoints style lends itself to humor, and the authors don’t stint on fast-paced action and complication.”—Tampa Tribune
 
“It’s light; it’s witty; it’s a page-turner. It’s romantic, in a he-man/she-modern-woman manner.”
—The State (South Carolina)
 
“Combines wit, romance, and movie-quality action in one fast-paced book.”—News and Sentinel (Parkesburg, WV)
 
“Plenty of big guns, helicopters…and light repartee…all in good fun. Readers will be happy to get a bit damp.”—Publishers Weekly
 
“Think Jamie Lee Curtis and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie True Lies.”—Georgia Library Quarterly
