Review:

Desperate people do desperate things. Brooke Chandler is pregnant and caught in the mountains trying to outrun the people who her ex-husband owed a lot of money, and they've got murder on their mind.

High stakes chase through the Smoky Mountains. I really liked Trent, he has an amazing dog, a supportive family, he is well versed in mountain survival. I liked that he wasn't afraid to jump right in and help Brooke, in her time of need. He is well prepared, with a well-trained dog, and I liked that he was always thinking of her and her needs first.

It took a while to get into it, Brooke isn't quite cut out for wilderness survival, especially heavily pregnant, so I was glad that she had Trent to lean on. There was a lot going on in the background of the story, but the present was more set during their trek through the mountains, with plenty of wildlife and Murphy's Law working really hard along the way.

A high stakes wilderness chase, with sweet romance and an amazing dog!

More from Loretta

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been mesmerized by the majesty of the mountains. I love log cabin vacations on the mountain top, sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch, and enjoying my early morning coffee. Low-lying clouds hang over them like a soft blanket and slowly dissipate while birds sing their wake-up songs. The perfect place to reminisce about life and dream about the future. Serene and beautiful.

One would think with my admiration of the mountain range I would accept all the mountains have to offer. Not so. Even though there are many hiking trails, I have ventured out on very few. Animals of the wild frighten me, but none near as much as a bear. I am certain every bear in the forest hides in the tops of trees, waiting for my arrival so they can pounce on me. I know it’s silly, but my apprehension is real.

What could be more suspenseful than to write a novel about Brooke Chandler, thirty-eight weeks pregnant, running for her and her baby’s life through the mountains? She must face her fears of the wild, including bears, if she wants to save her baby from the killers that murdered her husband. To make it worse, she’s in the forest alone in the inky darkness.

Handler Trent Williston and his K-9, Rex, escape the city, away from all pregnant women. He refuses to deliver another baby after a mishap with an emergency delivery while on the job. A camping trip to the mountains with Rex is his go-to for relaxation – until Brooke falls into his camp with three killers on her trail.

I hope you enjoy Trent and Brooke’s story as they face their challenges together.
