"The Colton's of Oklahoma series just got crazier."

SECOND CHANCE COLTON is Marie Ferrarella's contribution
to a great romantic suspense series about the Colton's of
Oklahoma. The drama began in Beth Cornelison's COLTON
COWBOY PROTECTOR and continues with quite a punch. The
Colton's of Oklahoma is a collaborative effort including
some very talented authors who treat the reader to a
glance at their individual writing styles while forging
ahead with a mystery that unfolds right before your eyes.
Once again I will be purposely vague since this series is
too delightful to miss. The Colton family is still reeling from the scary
unsettling events that have them all looking over their
shoulders. At the Lucky C, too many unexplained events
have the Colton's turning to the authorities to see if
the dots can be connected. Detective Ryan Colton is faced
with looking for a common denominator of a series of
mishaps and vandalism that seem to point to the
one person Ryan can't fathom -- his sister Greta. Greta is
a horse trainer who travels a great deal to ranches that
requires her expertise. Add to that the fact that Greta
is rather busy planning her wedding to Mark Stanton. How can Ryan dismiss some very damaging evidence? He
needs help. Help comes from a familiar person, Susan
Howard, who is indisputably the best at what she does --
forensics. But if that is the case, then how is it
possible that Susie insists that the DNA evidence points
to Greta? At first Susie adamantly stands by her scientifically
acquired conclusion of Greta's guilt. Ryan is equally
sure that there must be a mistake but can't find a way to
convince Susie of the fallibility of her findings. Marie Ferrarella leads us on a voyage of discovery that
confounds the reader. SECOND CHANCE COLTON opens our eyes
to some very interesting family secrets. Secrets that
Ferrarella hopes will lead us all to a plausible
conclusion. Only time will tell. This series keeps
getting better. Wait for it. Wait for it. Enjoy.
SUMMARY
Scandal leads to death on the Colton ranch in the latest
from USA TODAY bestselling author Marie Ferrarella. When murder strikes his family's ranch, Detective Ryan
Colton follows the evidence…straight to his sister. Instinct
tells him she's innocent. But once her DNA is found at the
scene, Ryan goes head-to-head with the forensics expert he'd
hoped to avoid. Susie Howard—the beautiful woman he once
loved…and left. Seeing Ryan again has Susie doubting everything, especially
her resolution to forget the sexy, rugged cowboy cop. If her
intuition is wrong, then the real killer is still at large
and has the Coltons in his sights. Teaming up with Ryan is
the only way for him to save his family—and his second
chance with her.
