Romance Suspense

Kylie Brewer is returning to Conard County after being in Denver for three years in graduate school. A traumatic experience has occurred in her life. She was attacked and left for dead in an alley, stabbed numerous times and left unconscious. Her memory of those three years is gone, along with all she learned seeking her Master's degree in Nursing. She returns to the home she grew up in to live with her sister Glenda. Currently Glenda has a house guest, Evan Cooper. He's visiting his cousin Connie while on leave from the Marine Corp. Connie doesn't have the room, so Glenda volunteered her spare bedroom. Kylie isn't comfortable with new people. She's not comfortable with many people these days. When a note is delivered to her home with a single black rose in it, she is once again fearful for her life. Coop is determined to keep Kylie safe and find the person who is scaring her. But with someone in town preying on young children, the sheriff's department is shorthanded on people to protect Kylie. Coop is also determined to bring her back from the dark place where Kylie is living in her mind. Will Kylie's memory return and can Coop keep her safe from another attack? Return to Conard County with Rachel Lee's latest installment in her Conard County: The Next Generation series. CONARD COUNTY MARINE is a dramatic, suspenseful tale about moving forward with your life when interruptions occur. Kylie is a strong and resilient character who is suffering through the fallout of unimaginable trauma. She has also lost her sense of safety. Coop is a strong Marine who has seen his fair share of the unimaginable through war. Together they cling to each other and try to heal. Ms. Lee gives us a lot of insight into the struggle our military men go through on the battlefront and in the aftermath when they return home. CONARD COUNTY MARINE is a story about moving forward and doing the best we can. It's about what we do with the interruptions that life brings our way and how we can rise above them. I've enjoyed every book in this series, and I'm sure you will too. They are easily read as a stand-alone, but the entire series is too good to miss.
