Vipers Rule

Lynn Braden

Viper's Rule is the second book in the Skills Creek series. Tals and Maddie have a past together that Maddie is trying to reinvigorate by leaving her husband and job while moving back home. I had some trouble with this story. I understood Maddie's need to reconnect with Tals, but throughout the story, Tals seemed to be afraid that Maddie considered him just a fling and would leave again. Maddie's personality and previous life choices supported the idea that she was simply disillusioned with her life and would eventually leave again. Much of the book was bogged down in constant talking and inner monologues that I found difficult to equate with an MC. The little action that there was in the story was relegated to the background and told about through dialogue. Despite all of these problems, I enjoyed the overall story. The next story, which I assume will involve Preacher and Holly, offers hope for more action and emotion.
