My Review:
I don't think my heart has stopped pounding since I put this book down an hour ago! I've only read one other book by Ronie Kendig, and was eager to read this one as well. Since this was the fourth book in the series, I didn't have the background that would have aided me while reading this book. However, once I was able to organize the characters into groups, such as: ones I cared about (Kazie & Griffin), the bad guys, Nightshade guys, and "The randoms" I wasn't able to put the book down!
If you are interested in thriller, military, romance books with a christian theme, this is the one for you! But... I'd advise starting with book one.
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

My Review:
This book, has potential. I, like many others, started with this book, which turned out to be the second in a serious of books by Ms. Hake. I figuring out the back story, of the book, took some doing, but once I did, it moved along smoothly enough.
18-year-old Lacey Lyman and her four friends, have apparently moved to Hopefalls in an effort to save, or recreate a saw mill, that her brother had started before he was injured in a mining accident. This part was very un-clear to me, but beside the point.
Chase Dunstan, a mountain man by trade (whatever that means) has arrived in Hopefalls to figure out why his brother died, and who was responsible.
As I said before, the book had potential, I think the main theme was supposed to be romance, but just as the beginnings of a relationship were about to start, the author seemed to have enough, and they kiss, and are ready to get married.
Um.......
So, I closed the book feeling a bit disappointed. The potential was there, but it didn't quite live up to what I was expecting, considering the beginnings of the story.
