Chase's heart goes out to Sara and her dilemma; Bartholomew's treatment of her and her son Kendal sickens him. He readily agrees to help her plot an escape route to freedom. The trio's plan unfolds and they are able to flee to the safety of Chase's ranch in Oklahoma. He arranges for them to obtain new identities and hopefully a new lease on life. What he doesn't anticipate is the closeness he feels for Sara and Kendal. It is as though he has been gifted with his own family. The newfound love is short lived, for Bartholomew's presence is lurking in the background. Evil is watching for the perfect opportunity to succeed at destroying all that is good.

Marliss Melton is the Queen of Romantic Suspense! She has quickly become one of my all time favorite authors. With every book I read, I grow more in love with her writing style. What sets her writing apart from others is her unique ability to masterfully craft characters with a true to life gritty appeal. Her superb writing talent guarantees readers a high action packed page turner. Very highly recommended.
