Andrea Finley is a strong, confident single minded woman who has her life and career planned out. Having reached the position of flight director at NASA, she has the responsibility for the next space flight to the moon and the safety of the seven astronauts.

Not everything runs as smooth with the mission as Andrea would like and unfortunately has to request help from outside NASA.

Kenner Hutchings, a brilliant twenty-something wiz kid from MIT gets the call to come to the rescue. Her confidence and swagger unnerves the flight director from the very start and so begins a love hate relationship that keeps them both on their toes and makes each re-evaluate certain decision they have made.

Countdown is a brilliant story that keeps you hooked. The two main characters are so well written that you really care about them. The sexual tension between Andrea and Kenner is so intense you can literally feel it vibrate from the pages.

My only complaint is I would have liked it to go on and on. At the every least I would like to beg Ms Cannon for a sequel.
