My Review

The author has you up on your toes in this mystery, with non-stop action, and guess right up to the end as to who the culprit is.
The main character is someone to be admired, a young woman who has excelled in her career and become a medical doctor, only to flee and follow her dream of returning home to open her own horse ranch. Don’t get to comfortable with her dream, someone it seems does not want her to fulfill it, and seems to want her dead.
There is something her for every here, a bit of romance, compassion for those less fortunate, family, and finding out who wants you dead.
Once you begin you won’t be able to stop, and when you find out surprises abound.
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Harlequin, and was not required to give a positive review.
