Publisher Description
New York Times best-selling author Catherine Anderson whisks listeners away to Oregon for a suspense-filled romance. Faking her own death to escape her murderous husband, Rainie takes refuge in the rural community of Crystal Falls, where she finds work as a bookkeeper on a horse ranch run by Parker Harrigan. But as their initial attraction blossoms, Rainie fears she can't continue to elude the man who has sworn to kill her-and that her mere presence could jeopardize everything the Harrigan family holds dear.

"I adore this woman's books. Especially these series books that are a continuation of a family. She's a wonderful writer of romance. This book I enjoyed very much. It's light hearted but with few twists that'll make you cringe and others that'll make you laugh out loud. Wonderful book! I can't wait for the next one :)"

" A current day book in the series which sounds an awful lot like one of Anderson's non-series books. Abused wife runs away, ends up in Crystal Falls, gets a job on Harrigan's ranch. Everyone falls in love, women regains strength and sense of self, bad guy returns. "
