Faye has found sanctuary in a simple cabin in the wilds of the Crazy Mountains in Montana with a dog called Bear. She’s a long way from her old life in England. But she knows that one day her peaceful life could be invaded by her enemies, and she keeps her guard up at all times.
Jeff returns home from Vietnam, a wounded, damaged hero, just weeks after his father’s sudden death. He finds hostile, secretive Faye living in his cabin and refusing to leave. The reading of his father’s will adds another layer of mystery to this woman’s presence.
The tension between them grows as Jeff tries to overcome his nightmares and expose Faye’s scars and secrets. The more he learns about her, the more enigmatic she seems.
When her enemies come calling, she needs Jeff to protect her. Can they learn to trust each other? And will Faye ever be safe?
I really enjoyed this, I found it hard to put down at times. It was well paced, gradually revealing things that had happened to the main character that explained the current events. A slightly implausible ending but I'd enjoyed it enough to forgive that LOL. (It was a kindle read - I'm not sure whether someone recommended it or whether it was just a 99p deal one that I fancied.)
After reading the legacy I couldn't wait to read the hidden. I was certainly not disappointed. This is a fast paced thrilling book with a bonus of romance thrown in. I will certainly be reading more of Alison Knights books and I am so glad we were lucky enough to meet her at the local publishing fair and buy these two books. They are so good and real page turners.
