Review
****I recieved a copy of this book for my honest review****Shaye has paved her own way in life, escaping the society life that her mother had planned for her, she has made herself a place in small town Nevada working for environmental conservancy. She loves her job and is good at it,making friends with many of the long time farmers with her easy down to earth ways. She is in the middle of doing a deal on the Davis homestead when it seems tragedy strikes.
Tanner comes home to his family homestead under sad circumstances, his uncle has passed away. Being a big city cop he immediately sees that things aren't all what they seem and it seems that maybe foul play may have been at center of his uncles death.
After a shaky beginning Shaye and Tanner strike up a partnership to solve the mystery, but things become very dangerous and Tanner can't help his protective instincts kicking in. Especially when it comes to Shaye, as they work together and get to know each other the passion between the two builds.
Elizabeth Lowell is an amazing author. Her characters just bounce off the page, so vivid and real.
Dangerous Refuge is a wonderfully paced, well written,romantic suspense novel. If you enjoy your books to be full of mystery and great character interaction , then this is the book for you.
I fully enjoyed every minute I spent reading this book.
