Mia finds that Ryan Morgan, her cheating ex-boyfriend, also lives in Logan Lake as a camp counselor and volunteer firefighter. She’s stored deep bitterness and mistrust in her heart towards him, her father, and all men for ten years. Yet shortly after arriving at the rustic resort, it’s Ryan that rescues her from a raging barn fire, where she is trapped.
Susan’s book is action-packed from page one–the mysterious threats, fire, break-ins, and murder. Events strike at a moment’s notice, but the elusive criminal always seems to be out of arm’s reach, creating tension as you wonder what will happen next and to whom. Susan has a great handle on the intricacies of life in that locale, making it difficult to assess who was behind all the turmoil and crimes, such as the guns used, since it was a hunting area.
Mia’s emotional upheavals were realistic considering how she perceived life after the tragedies and betrayals she experienced, although her perceptions may not have been necessarily true.
The hope of things working out were evident in Ryan’s faith and trust in the Lord, as he learned to lean on Him through these tumultuous events, while reaching out to Mia to do the same. A hope we can all have when we put our trust in the Lord.
This book was provided by Susan for my honest review. It’s a good read for great suspense and romance.
