When cops can’t catch the most-wanted criminals, they hire Gaelyn. She comes from a long line of bounty hunters, including her father, uncle, and grandfather. Extensive training in weaponry, hand-to-hand combat, and adverse conditions have seasoned her into a formidable opponent against any contracted hit, whether male, female, alien, or human. She has little fear of the unknown and thrives on adventure.
Only one other hunter matches her status—Reese, a Trøndite from the small planet of Sør-Trøndalag in the Capricornus Sector. And the man has a knack for stealing her contracts. Both cunning and gorgeous, the mix doesn’t seem quite fair. But attractiveness holds little power over money. Reese had beaten Gaelyn out of a half-year’s pay a scarce three months ago, and she will be damned if he outwits her again.
Thinking she’s duped Reese back onto Jupiter, Gaelyn isn’t too happy when she runs into him on Quaoar at the Blue Moon, an authentic hole-in-the-wall bar tucked at the end of a narrow alley in what would be considered the rough part of town; just the place to find her contracted hit. But Reese not only has the information she needs to find her mark, he also has a business proposal that’s too tempting to pass up. And a partnership with Reese just might prove rewarding in a way Gaelyn never expects...

Complete Heart
Excellent! Chasing Booty is a story that sucked me in right from the start and held my attention until the end. And this is not my choice of genre. Ms. Leigh built a wonderful world that I could visualize in a short period of time. The plot was fun and exciting. The love scenes were hot and definitely out of the normal—in a good way. The writing was fantastic.
Rating: 5 hearts!

Dark Diva Reviews
Chasing Booty is a science fiction book about a human woman, Gaelyn, and a Trondite, Reese. They are both bounty hunters and nearly enemies. Their dialogue was realistic and the plot was interesting. I enjoyed reading about all the different sorts of aliens and planets and am amazed at the imagination it takes to create such creatures and places. Gaelyn and Reese meet up and decide to partner up for this particular bounty contract, resulting in an amusing clash of tempers and scorching passion. As for the ending, I can’t help but think that there is much more to this story and I wonder if there will be a sequel coming soon.

Mochas Erotic Review
The title gives the reader an idea of what to expect Gaelyn and Reese are
two strong willed characters chasing after a bounty. Shannon Leigh created
a tantalizing world of Sci-Fi with her characters. Shannon Leigh's world
of bounty hunters and aliens is exhilarating.

Romance At Heart
Chasing Booty is truly a fun and sexy romp filled with danger, lust, sex, and some good old-fashioned romance. Set in a futuristic setting, Shannon Leigh has a hero who is a bit of a rogue, one who has taunted, teased, and vexed the heroine to pieces. He plays a game of one upsmanship until he is caught in a bad situation. Then Reese turns to seduction, and with his devilish good looks, and the reputation of his species, he is truly "sex on a stick," and a temptation too hard for Gaelyn to resist. Her heroine is strong, savvy, independent, and very resistant to Reese’s advances until now. For her to see such a proud one brought low makes her suspicious, but in her heart of hearts she cannot turn away from a colleague in need, even if it he was her chief tormentor. If you are really interested in a good story, a pair of "at the throat" squabblers who only heat the action, and a down and dirty good futuristic adventure, then Chasing Booty is the book for you. Available now from the Amber Quill Amber Heat imprint, Shannon Leigh's book is a must read. It is sexy, sassy, exciting and a lot of fun, so get a copy of Chasing Booty today and settle in for a great read.

Chasing Booty is good for a chuckle or two. Gaelyn and Reese are an unlikely pair…human and alien. But that doesn’t stop them in the least in their pursuit of booty. Fast paced and fun, Chasing Booty will take you away from it all. Ms. Leigh has a talent for fun entertainment. I’ve enjoyed reading other of her books in the past and look forward to more.

Chasing Booty by Shannon Leigh is a fast paced read that is so hot my eyes were sweating. It was also incredibly sweet at the end when you find out the steps that Reese was willing to take to get Gaelyn and keep her safe. Another great read, I hope to see more from Ms. Leigh soon.

Paranormal Romance Reviews:
CHASING BOOTY is a hot, fun futuristic read. Shannon Leigh proves her talent once again as she takes on a new genre and totally masters it. Gaelyn is a tough as nails woman and doesn't back down from a challenge. Reese is pure alpha male, but Gaelyn is up to the challenge of taking him on. The action is non-stop, the danger is very real, the world building is perfect and this all makes for a very hot, enjoyable read. This is one you don't want to miss.
