Editorial Reviews

08/05/2022

After spending two years incarcerated for a murder she didn't commit, Emma McBride is determined to clear her name and start over. When Trace Redkin, her childhood crush, offers his assistance, Emma gratefully accepts but fears that her heart won't be able to resist the handsome rancher. Trace never believed his little sister's best friend was guilty and is more than happy to help her get back on her feet again, even as he finds grown-up Emma more and more irresistible. When mysterious and threatening things start happening around the ranch, it becomes clear that both Emma and Trace are in grave danger. VERDICT Though the romance is a bit stronger than the suspense with this one, readers who have enjoyed Whiddon's (Texas Rancher's Hidden Danger) other Getaway, TX, novels will be satisfied with this one as well.—Rebecca Moe
