Summary

The last thing he expects to catch in his river is a billionaire heiress.

Loner Boone Hendrix left the military with ghosts that haunt him. He lives with his dog Atlas on a farm in Vermont. Alone. Just the way he likes it. Until he rescues a half-drowned, beautiful brunette from his river.

Gemma Newhouse is the daughter of the richest man in America, and from the abrasions on her wrists and her drugged state, she’s on the run from someone dangerous. She’s nothing like Boone expected—sweet, smart, and likes baking—and she ignites a fierce need inside him.

Being a member of a covert Ghost Ops team taught him deadly skills, and he’ll use them all to keep her safe.

Gemma can’t remember the last twenty-four hours. All she knows is that someone abducted her. Someone dangerous. Her only goal is survival and she’s used to taking care of herself. She’s a constant disappointment to her driven, successful parents. She doesn’t want a brilliant career, all she wants is to bake and make people smile.

Finding herself in Boone’s strong arms wasn’t on her plan. Nor was his rugged face, hard body, and gold-brown eyes. She sees how much he’s cut himself off from life, how he believes he’s broken.

Thrust together, she realizes this quiet hero will do anything to protect her. Despite the danger around them, they can’t resist their growing attraction, but her captors are hunting her…

And Boone is the only thing standing in their way.

Love, love, love this book!!

Wow, Anna sure does know how to write an amazing hero. I love these characters. Not only is the hero a great guy but he can kick butt as well! The leading lady is fantastic, strong resilient and fierce. A brilliant performance.

Narration brings story to life

I love reading Anna Hackett books- inevitably, downloading these books immediately upon release. And this one was no different. I have been waiting anxiously for Boone’s book, he being a recurring character through many of Anna Hackett’s series. And it was awesome. Gemma is being chased, after escaping a kidnapping. She winds up nearly dead at Boone’s fishing spot and he and Atlas (his German shepherd who I adore!) save her. Many harrowing moments as they try to outrun the bad guys and visits from our favorite past characters make this story a wonderful start to a new, awesome series full of action, suspense and of course. Romance. Love the strong characters to believe in, including a strong heroine. Can’t wait for the next one!

Now add in the narration by Aaron Sherlock and Ava Erickson and they bring the story to life. I'm a fan of both, having listened to their narrations across many stories and in this book, both effortlessly played the characters well, infusing emotion throughout. Love this audiobook!
