Hero's Return - B.J. Daniels
Tucker Cahill disappeared from Gilt Edge, Montana, hoping to escape a secret that has haunted him for nineteen years. Then, when a young woman’s remains are found in the creek near his family’s ranch, he has no choice but to face his demons. The truth that sent him running years ago could take away his freedom now.
Kate Rothschild came to town looking for vengeance—and Tucker Cahill. What she finds is a tortured and irresistible man who’s more than meets the eye. Caught up in the past, they are drawn deeper into a twisted game that’s not over yet. And the consequences could prove fatal for them both…
Let's start with my rating, a solid 4 out of 5 stars. I'm only knocking it down because Kate's revenge and her lack of a plan kind of annoyed me. Tucker had the most right to be outraged and he was level headed and calm about the entire thing.
Anyways.
The book starts off giving us a tragic beginning of a young woman, presumably holding a baby, jumps off a bridge and that's it. Fast forward several years later and a woman's bones are discovered in a river bank, which spurs Tucker to face his past and deal with the consequences. The young woman was his girlfriend, with their baby, or so he thinks. Turns out the young woman is one of three identical sisters so Tucker, and Kate (who lost her brother because of the same young woman) don't really understand WHAT happened long ago. Was it scam? Was it legitimate? Which sister died that night? Where are the others? Can either Tucker or Kate move on, even if they never get the answers, or even if they do?
Overall? It's a good book. I had no problem flying through this one because unlike the rest of the series, this one feels more like romantic suspense. We've got murder, unexplained deaths, scams, backstabbing friends, and Montana politics at play here. I had a good time reading this book and even though Kate's character was a little shaky for me, I liked her and Tucker as a pairing. She keeps him on his toes and he calms her down a notch. If you are a fan of romantic suspense, you're going to enjoy this one!
