This book was riding on a 4/5 star rating until the final chapters when everything seemed to start falling out of place. I reckon the author had trouble finishing up this book as several details such as Erin talking to Dana about her childhood trauma, a good explanation about that childhood trauma and foster home experiences and how they shaped Erin's skittishness and fears, etc, were poorly explained or missing altogether.
Erin and Daniel's romantic relationship also did not fall into place naturally, there was no indication of romance being on the horizon until he whispers 'I love you'. There were no indications of love on Erin's part until she read his lips.
The puzzle pieces didn't fit together, I wish the author could do this book over from the half-way mark as there was so much potential for something excellent.

I thought I was just going to be reading about a Texas Ranger and his family from title. Little did I know the adventure I was embarking on. There is children who watch their Mom murdered by their Dad, teenager with purple spiked hair, situations in a home most don't encounter, and romance of course.
This book should help you realize how soldiers and those who work behind the scenes put their lives in danger and how that danger can change their life at any moment. I want to write so much in here but it would give so much away.
I will say I am encouraging my daughter as her partner and her fight for the captive to be set free - his kids. The girl has been molested by her Mother's boyfriend and the boy has suffered bruises on many occasions. The Mother and her whole family are up on burglary charges which have taken a year to come to trial. The kids are caught in the middle. As my heart was heavy today, I finished this book and it encouraged me not to give up. This book will uplift you, encourage you and help you to go on.
You have to read it to see the adventure and obstacles that the characters are up against and you will weep with joy at the end.

Photojournalist Erin Gray returns home after being away for many years. She's recouping from the physical injuries of an accident. However, she finds that she is not the only one with injuries. Both her Texas Ranger husband, Daniel and her daughter, Dana have emotional injuries that need to heal.

Dana is a wonderful character, full of life and knowing what she wants. She's the typical teenager that speaks her mind.

Daniel sees both his job and his family as responsibility. But he has missed the wife and left not long after their daughter was born.

This book is full of emotion. Author, Mae Nunn does a good job in pulling the story together, bringing a family together during a time of crisis. I will definately look for more of her books.
