Nine months sober and looking for a fresh start, Sierra Jones leaves Iowa and heads for the Rocky Mountains to reconnect with her brother, Cal, and consider her options. It doesn't take her long to fall in love with the community and a mistreated golden retriever, but with her past history of picking the wrong men, that's all she plans to fall in love with. Hunky firefighter Conrad "Connie" Boyle decides he's the "right" one for her, but Sierra is hiding a frightening secret that could turn deadly if she doesn't admit she needs help. Abuse, mental illness, addiction, and a host of other issues add a realistic touch to this immersive, upbeat romance.
VERDICT Captivating protagonists, colorful supporting characters, and a multithreaded story line make this a welcome addition to what is promising to be a fully involving series, with appeal for both women's fiction and romance fans. Carr (The Life She Wants) lives in Henderson, NV.
