Janet Dailey sets an idyllic scene as she opens REFUGE COVE in a tourist town in Alaska shut down for the season, but just outside of town in the surrounding forest a woman is running for her life.
Emma Hunter was a lonely school teacher looking for a man to love while living in Utah. Enter the man of her dreams. He talks her into moving to Alaska to marry and live with him, only to find out all is not as it seems. She ends up running for her life and knows she can't stop or she'll die. Emma gets caught in a muskeg an Alaskan swamp and is spotted by John Wolf flying home from a mail run. He reluctantly stops to rescue the woman. They are shot at and escape, but when he finds out what is going on he vows to protect her from her so called husband who John knows all too well. He takes Emma to the police who really can't do much, so John starts investigating on his own.
REFUGE COVE is one of Janet Dailey's Americana series and I look forward to reading the other numerous books. REFUGE COVE keeps you wondering when the bad guy will show up. It shows you that no matter if it is a large city or a small town, there is danger, but you can over come your fears with true love.
Refuge Cove, Alaska, stays true to its name when a woman
who has lost hope and a man in need of healing come to
each otherβs rescueβ¦
She came to Alaska on the promise of marriage, only to
find herself on the run from her would-be husband. Lost
and alone in the wilderness, Emma Hunter nearly weeps with
relief at the sight of a small plane in the distanceβuntil
the rugged bush pilot makes his way through the brush to
help her. Can she trust this stranger any more than the
menacing predator on her trail? But thereβs something in
John Wolfβs dark eyes that wills her to believe in him,
something about his gentle nature that allows her to
accept his offer of protectionβ¦
Heβd let her into his life because he knew she was in
trouble. The last thing John Wolf expects is to feel so
much so quickly for the vulnerable woman in his care. For
sharing his lonely wilderness home with Emma means
allowing her to see his sorrowβthe son he longs to
reconnect with, the loss of the family he once dreamed
possible. Sharing his heart with Emma means being willing
to risk everything to keep her safeβ¦
