 Review:

A fast-paced mystery, that kept the pages turning as Felicia and her sister try to stay one step ahead of who is pursuing them. 

An engaging romantic suspense, I liked that it brought Jude and Felicia back together after he had tried to pull away. Jude is a noble and protective man, and I liked that he was willing to step up and help Felicia as she swept into the conflict over her sister. 

A gripping novel that can be read as a stand alone or as part of the series. I liked seeing Felicia connect with Gracie and her giant dog, as well as seeing her face her past. Felicia and Jude work well together, and I liked seeing them problem solve, as well as Jude stepping out from behind the walls he's built for himself. 

Overall a compelling, action -packed read, filled with suspense, faith and love. Definitely a must-read for anyone who has been keeping up with the Duke family, or a wonderful stand alone!

 I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

More from Dana

At last! We’ve arrived at the final book in the Desert Justice series! It seems like just yesterday I was finishing book one, about cousin Beckett Duke who was falsely imprisoned. Then we met cowboy Levi and his twin Willow, dog lover Austin, donkey rescuer Nora and FINALLY sheriff Jude Duke gets his story! I am a fan of a hero with some miles under his belt, aren’t you? Could it be because I’ve got more than a few under mine? Ending this series is bittersweet because I am thrilled that the Dukes all received their happy endings, but I’ll miss writing about their adventures in Death Valley. Hope you’ll come along on my next series. (Could be there are bloodhounds in our fictional future!)

God bless!
