Romance
Actually two books/stories in one including RESCUE AT
CARDWELL RANCH part of Cardwell Cousins series dated
2014
and Wanted Woman part of Cascades Concealed series dated
2004. Poetic license or should I say reviewers license because I
would like to start with the second story in this book
Wanted Woman -- an oldie but definitely a goodie. This is a
story that stands the test of time and comes out a winner.
Sometimes you find and re-read a book because it's like an
old friend -- other times you want to see if you had somehow
missed a clue. In Wanted Woman there was no way to guess. B.J. Daniels
compels you to follow her to the conclusion. A real page
turner that aged gracefully. It would seem the circumstances
of Maggie's adoption were rather questionable and probably
dubious. Her being adopted wasn't a secret. Her parents had
acquired her late in life and she was loved and cared for.
But when her father discovered that Maggie had actually been
kidnapped Maggie's world started to collapse around her. The
only clue she had to go on was that she had originally come
from a place called Timber Falls -- so that's where she was
heading. Maggie had no idea what she would find In Timber
Falls but she hoped to discover something -- anything about
her birth family. What she found upon arriving there was
anything but a warm welcome. In fact it looked like all the
bad vibes had followed her. And to make matters worse the
one man who captures her attention just might be part of her
past. There's virtually no one Maggie can really trust with
her whole heart. It's truly a matter of staying a step ahead
of whatever plot had been set. Her life depends on it.
RESCUE AT CARDWELL RANCH is a nail biter about what turns
out to be a serial killer who has managed to separate home
from his horrible murders. An intelligent patient psychopath
who is on the hunt for the one that managed to get away. Grocery shopping in a small town should be relatively safe.
Even so smart women learn not to take unnecessary chances.
But for a predator intent on satisfying a sick need it would
seem even the most careful and caution woman could find her
the object of unwarranted attention. Reaction is crucial to
survival. McKenzie was distracted by problems with a man who
worked for her. All the opportunity the crazed man needed.
Luckily for McKenzie Hayes Cardwell was just finishing up
with some late night purchase of his own. If not for Hayes
intervention McKenzie was certain it wasn't going to end
well for her. This mad man had set up and planned her
abduction -- now the question was -- was it planned or not.
The first suspect was Gus who was not a happy camper now
that his days with McKenzie Realty Company were numbered.
But McKenzie had major doubts that Gus was the guy. Even so
the investigators were determined to follow any and all
leads.
McKenzie wanted to thank the man who had stepped in and
saved her. Nothing would ever be the same again for either
McKenzie or Hayes.
A big thank you to B.J. Daniels for two amazing stories that
are guaranteed to capture your attention and become
residents on your favorite library shelf. These stories will
challenged even the most talented arm chair sleuth. The
characters are real beyond imagination and these two stories
will whet your appetite for more of Daniels work.
Perfect chance to try out a new author and you won't be
disappointed in what B.J. Daniels has to offer her readers.
SUMMARY
The highly anticipated continuation of the Cardwell Ranch
Collection read by more than 2 MILLION! Saving her once was risky. Rescuing her again may be fatal. When Hayes Cardwell arrived in Big Sky, Montana, for his
brother's wedding, the Texas P.I. didn't expect to play
hero. But ever since he saved her from a brutal abductor,
he
can't get McKenzie Sheldon out of his mind and heart. As
passion blindsides him, Hayes vows to protect the beautiful
business owner from once again becoming the target of a
killer intent on finishing the job. McKenzie was drawn to Hayes from the moment she awoke and
saw the tall, dark cowboy who'd rushed to her rescue like
some Western fantasy. With his lean, sexy looks and fierce
protective instincts, the gun-shy bachelor is already
lassoing her heart. But can he protect her from a danger
that's much closer than they think…a killer hiding in
plain
sight who's about to spring a final trap?
