Another page turner. I would like to give it 4.5 stars instead of 5 because in some ways this is a cliffhanger, and the next book isn't due until July. Jessie and Alex are coming close to the real reason for the shady business her brother was involved in. A woman is murdered, a young man photographs the scene with his drone, and Jessie's friend is kidnapped to force her to help retrieve the drone operator and the footage.
A young woman's body was found just off a hiking trail in the mountains. Since many properties had been bought and others where the owners were threatened, the body seemed to be part of an evil trying to take hold in their small community. Many surprises and twist to the ending.
Series is getting better. Still a little rushed with character development a bit neglected but overall better than the first book in the series. Well edited with correct grammar and word usage, which is not always available in this type of books.
Book one was great! Book two is even better! I’m excited to read book three now! I’m happy to have found this author and look forward to seeing what else she has!
Jessie and Blizzard made a good connection and they help each other. Alex and Jessie are trying to figure who to trust and what is going on their community. The action became very aggressive but they did succeed in finding out what was happening.
This picked up right after the first book and was just as good. The characters became more in-depth and a glimpse into their historical timeline made it interesting.
This book was hard to put down, not knowing what to expect next. The actions of Jessie were not believable, her ability to take down but men with just her small body.
