My
thoughts: And
now we have the third McKade brother's story. I loved the first two
books in this series, and this third story lives up to them. Liam
McKade is a former DEA agent who has come home to Wyoming after
having his cover blown and getting shot during his last assignment.
He's mulling over his future, and whether to stay at the ranch and
help his brother run things, or accept a job as head of security at a
local ski resort. Rae is an investigative reporter. Her sister-in-law
has disappeared, and her brother asks her to use her investigative
skills to help find Zoey. Rae finds herself going to Jackson Hole,
Wyoming, to find and question Zoey's mother. The last place she wants
to be. Because that's where Liam is. But Liam saved her life once,
and if anyone can help her find Zoey, it would be Liam.
Liam
wants nothing to do with Rae, but is reluctantly drawn into her
investigation. As the story progresses we're given little glimpses and
tidbits of their shared history. Both Liam and Rae are wonderfully
written characters, as all of Ms. Goddard's characters are. The plot
moves along briskly, with plenty of twists into unexpected
directions. I feel like my reviews of her books are just repeating
the same things, but they are all truly engrossing. Her descriptions
of the surroundings, in this case snow covered mountains with a chase
on skis, are so evocative you feel you are there with the characters.
I'm
sad there are no more McKade brothers, but I'm looking forward to her
new series, “Rocky Mountain Courage”, and I really need to hunt
down some of her earlier books.
Goodreads
synopsis: Investigative
reporter Rae Burke will do anything to find her missing
sister-in-law, even if it means facing Liam McKade, a man who almost
lost his life saving hers. A former DEA agent, Liam thought he could
find peace at his Wyoming ranch, but he doesn't feel at home anywhere
anymore. When the reporter who blew his cover on an important
investigation inserts herself back into his life, he's less than
thrilled. But Rae's keen investigative skills have led her down the
right path--and directly into the dragon's mouth--leaving Liam no
choice but to protect her.
As the danger increases, the past they both tried to flee catches up to them, along with the feelings they once had for each other . . .
