MY REVIEW:
This story had great characters, interesting plot with some action, romance, and a twist! I had a hard time imagining what it would be like to have such an evil family member and just how bad Mitch’s brother really was. The author did a great job with describing the ranch setting and the heartache that Mitch, his dad, and Jane experienced due to the bad choices of Wade. We also got a glimpse into Wade and Mitch’s childhood and the warning signs of Wade’s emotional anger that everyone around him ignored until it was too late.
I had a hard time liking this story as much as her other books due to the serial killer’s closeness to the main characters and how “real” he seemed. Definitely a more suspenseful book instead of lighthearted and fun, but I still enjoyed reading it! I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

We’re kicking off a new cowboy series, but this one is going to take you for a wild ride! Set on a ranch that’s sandwiched between the sea and the hills required me to do some on site research of course! I spent quite a while in this gorgeous area of California, looking for cattle. (You can see the zany results in my video.) I found the cattle, and also the perfect setting for this first book. It’s a creepy one, I’ll warn you, as hero Mitch Whitehorse comes face to face with the serial killer brother he sent to prison….and his desperate ex sister in law. Saddle up and enjoy the story! God bless!
