MY THOUGHTS.....
The Hickory Cove Bed and Breakfast. Just the name suggests a peaceful sanctuary, a place to enjoy beauty and harmony in a beautiful Kentucky setting. Until...this tranquil setting becomes a place of fear, danger, and even death. Mindy Steele shares another nail-biting thriller that kept me totally absorbed in the peril that surrounds Emery Bishop and her 10-year-old son Cooper. Can an 'Amish plowboy turned wildlife defender' save Emery from becoming her ex-husband's victim once again?
Steele is a respected author of Amish fiction but she's stepped out of her comfort zone once again in this third addition to her Mountain Protectors novels. Yes, there are some heavy topics but they are mentioned in a respectful manner and romance lovers will enjoy seeing the friendship that develops between Emery and Corbin. Could a deeper relationship be possible? Deadly Sanctuary is an exciting character-driven story that kept me turning the pages. I recommend it to all who enjoy romantic suspense novels.
I accepted an Advanced Readers Copy of this book. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
