While running her uncle’s gun shop and sweating out an Atlanta summer, Tai Randolph is present when best friend Rico’s poet buddy is murdered. The guys, and gals, are competing in a national poetry slam. Atlanta is overrun with hundreds of fame-hungry performance poets clogging all the good bars. She’s also got her brand-new relationship with corporate security agent Trey Seaver to deal with. SWAT-trained and rule-obsessed, Trey has an injured brain geared for statistics and flow charts, not romance. And while Tai finds him irresistibly fascinating, dating a human lie detector who can kill with his bare hands is a somewhat precarious endeavor. The sequel to multi-starred review The Dangerous Edge of Things ($14.95).
