Review by
Marlene Engel
Jet has sworn off men. Since her recent breakup, the last thing
she needs in her life is another man to wreak havoc. New to Marietta and
working as a teacher at a small schoolhouse, her focus is on her work. But
every time she sees him at Java Café, her body betrays her. So what that he’s
mysterious and handsome, that his long, dark hair gives him a bit of an untamed
look and his arm that is sleeved with tattoos adds to that bad boy persona. But
despite the physical attraction, she can’t help noticing that every time he’s
at the café, he’s surrounded by books and is busy jotting down notes. Not just
easy on the eyes, he has a brain too!
When he strikes up a conversation, she learns that he is a writer, but not just any writer. He happens to be Shane Swan, her favorite author. Having always been a book girl, if his looks and intellect didn’t get her, being the mind behind several of her favorite books is enough to send her swooning. But if she isn’t mistaken, he is the same Shane that is staying at the Douglas ranch and writing a sure-to-be bestseller about the horrific Douglas massacre. The same Shane that the Sheenans are hell-bent on getting out of that house and stopping the book from ever getting published.
Yes, Shane chose to stay at the Douglas ranch for research on his novel, but there are secrets in his past that he’s hoping to get answers to. Maybe staying at the Douglas ranch wasn’t totally necessary in doing that, but getting as close to the Sheenans as possible is the ticket he needs. He may not have sought out to use Jet to do that, but it definitely will make it easier. But if the Sheenans have anything to say about it, Jet will heed their warning and stay as far away from Shane as possible.
The last thing Jet expected was to develop feelings for Shane. Now, caught between what her family says and what her heart is telling her to do, Jet is torn. Is she really considering going against her family and the one thing she was dead-set on doing, falling for another man? But as we all know, sometimes the brain can’t control what the heart is determined to feel.
Leave it to Jane Porter to give us an emotionally driven, thought provoking novel with so many twists and turns you’ll never guess what’s going to happen next. Romance mixed with mystery and add in family secrets and you have Jane Porter’s next bestselling novel!
