Moondance Ridge
She escaped – now he wants her back. Refusing could be deadly…
Tony Nazario is a successful businessman, a loner with a gypsy spirit, and a sucker for a woman in need. When he moved to Mount Haven, he didn’t expect to meet a desperate and fiercely independent woman that would change his life forever. Immanent death? Yeah, she’s worth the risk.
Theresa Regan is in trouble — big trouble — and the threat is more sinister and powerful than she ever imagined. A late-night attack plunges her back into her worst nightmare — a world controlled by a killer. Time is running out. A predator has become impatient. Will history repeat? Or, this time, will the result be fatal for everyone involved.

A big city gangster believes that he need only issue the order for people to be threatened, beaten, robbed, kidnapped, or murdered. When those victims live in a regular small town in the USA, perhaps—but not if they’ve started a new life in Mount Haven and been taken to the hearts of the locals.
Rowdy may be an ex-cop, but his sense of justice is ingrained. Threatening his loved ones is not the best way to get on his good side. When a handful of other like-minded people offer their support, it makes for a much fairer fight. First the fists fly and then the bullets.
Romance is in the air, but misunderstandings create unnecessary conflict, causing new and old relationships to be tested. All this, while the common enemy—the mob boss, is undermined by Rowdy and his associates. As the tale unfolds, the good guys chip away at lucrative underworld activities and bruise more than the egos of a few bad guys.
If you’re keen on summary justice and like the idea of the rogue element of society being tackled head-on, this tale will appeal to you.

Always love anything that has the Cooper brothers in it.
At first, I was leery of Tonny, but he quickly grew on me. I was happy with the care he took of Theresa, especially, considering, how her past was haunting her.
