MY REVIEW

Great characters and steady, interesting story plot that kept my interest from beginning to end. There were alot of (non graphic) action and suspense which kept me on the edge of my seat. I liked the ending and that it wasn’t predictable.

I liked getting to know Jude, Seth, Felicity and Nora throughout and their interactions with each other. Great holiday book about love, forgiveness, second chances, faith and family. I have read the other Desert Justice by this author and have enjoyed them as well.

I would recommend this to anyone wanting a quick, easy to read, suspense book!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

More from Dana

Well here we go! Book five in the Desert Justice series features Nora (Chief Jude’s estranged sister), a wild donkey who needs rescuing, and a crime from the past that intrudes into the present. Twisty, right? I was inspired to write this story after visiting Death Valley and learning about the feral donkeys which inhabit the region. They’re cute, visitors love them, but the burros can encounter health problems and cause environmental damage if they aren’t settled into a safe area. It’s amazing to me that wild donkeys are adept at detecting underground water sources. They dig “wells” which can benefit many thirsty animals. Fascinating, right? Hope you’ll enjoy meeting Bubbles the donkey and the helpful humans who rescue her in this novel. God bless and thanks for reading!
