Forsaken

B.J. Daniels — 2013

Danger runs high and passions burn hot in Montana's wild country Big-city detective Bentley Jamison is a long way from home in the Beartooth wilderness when a local rancher's sheepherder goes missing. Towering mountains and a small, tight community are as unfamiliar to him as herding sheep. But he's never shied away from a challenge, and as the new deputy sheriff he's sworn to protect every inch of this rough terrain. Starting with unraveling a mystery that has left rancher Maddie Conner a wide-open target. Maddie's as beautiful—and untamable—as the land around them. Like Jamison, she won't back down from danger. But desire that flares hotter than their tempers only raises the stakes when a fierce storm traps them in the high mountains. Caught in a killer's sights, Jamison and Maddie must trust one another, because now survival…and love…are all that matter.

This book was disappointing. B J Daniels was a new author for me, but I'd read for months what a great book this was, so I purchased it with high hopes. It was a pretty good book, but nothing stood out for me as being outstanding. It was a little light on the romance, as the two main characters didn't seem to consider each other romantically until the book was about 2/3 complete. The mystery was good, but fairly predictable.

I won this on GoodReads about a month ago. I don't usually read Harlequin books any because I have gotten sick of reading them after reading them for so many years but this book sounded good so I decided to give it a chance. Just like any other romance books like these the story was predictable but the story is very well written and I actually very much enjoyed it. If you are into this genre of books I think you will enjoy this book.
