Series:
Hudson Sibling Solutions (Book 3)
Protecting her ranch has always come first.
Until she learns about her unborn baby.
After almost losing her life in a fire, Wyoming PI Anna
Hudson wakes up to the sight of a familiar stranger. Anna and Hawk Steele
shared one passionate night. Now the arson investigator will go to any lengths
to protect Anna and their baby-to-be. But as they search through cold cases,
exposing a tangled family history, a killer after revenge
for past sins could steal Anna and Hawk's future.
Terrific combination of romance and suspense. Anna is the
youngest of the six Hudson siblings and a private investigator like the others.
She occasionally helps with the family's cold case investigations but primarily
works for another firm. As the book opens, she is injured during one of her
investigations caught in a deliberately set fire.
The arson investigator assigned to the case is Hawk
Steele, the man she had a one-night stand with a few months earlier. She has
been putting off telling him that she is pregnant, but the cat is now out of
the bag. Hawk, a loner by choice, is stunned but determined to be a father to
his child.
Neither has forgotten the night they spent together. Hawk
wants marriage, but Anna will only marry for love. With Anna in danger, Hawk's
protective instincts are aroused, and he is determined to keep her safe. As
they investigate the fire and subsequent attacks on Anna, the feelings between
them strengthen.
I enjoyed watching loner Hawk deal with the Hudson
family, their closeness, and their involvement in each other's lives. The scene
with Mary and the puppy was hilarious.
The suspense of the story was fantastic. I was glued to
the pages as the attacks on Anna intensified, and the entire family and Hawk
searched past cases to see who might be behind the attacks. The twists and
turns were incredible. The final confrontation was a nail-biter and had me on
the edge of my seat until it was over. I especially enjoyed Anna's part.
I look forward to reading the rest of the series. I'd
like to know if they find out what happened to their parents.
