About this listen

Sharla-Jean Bromley returns to her hometown after a 17-year absence with vengeance in her heart. From the very beginning, her plans go awry when she meets devastatingly handsome Josh Morgan, the man to whom her father left half of his multi-million dollar lumber mill.

Josh, suspicious of Sharla-Jean’s reasons for returning to town after such a long absence, vows to keep control of the company he feels is rightfully his. She is equally determined to prove she can run her father’s mill, even though it means working side-by-side with Josh, a man whose very presence evokes an attraction that is increasingly difficult for her to ignore.

In the process, they must overcome a villain who’s determined to destroy both the lumber mill and their lives. Will Sharla-Jean succeed and heal the anguish that has long filled her soul? Will she and Josh find the passion of a lifetime?

This book is absolutely filled to the brim with emotion and suspense. Sharla-Jean comes back to her hometown after 17 years for her father's funeral. She inherits 1/2 his business with certain stipulations. And she has to share the experience with Josh, her father's protege. His business and his partner aren't the only things she inherits. There is an arsonist on the loose and all signs might be pointing to Sharla-Jean. She and Josh need to put aside their differences, forgive themselves, unravel the past and work together to solve the mystery before one or both of them die.

The story is a bit long and heavy with detail. That isn't a bad thing, it just is what it is. I enjoyed the audiobook and enjoyed reading how Josh and Sharla-Jean's relationship develops.

I read this straight after 'Broken Trust' by the same author. Both share some of the same elements - some romance and some suspense.I thought that this one had the edge story wise and so gave it 4 stars for story as against 3 for 'Broken Trust'. There are more twists and turns in this one and the events are well plotted and interesting.The romance is lighthearted and follows the tried and tested theme where they hate each other on sight and then.... well you know the rest! I have to say that the descriptions of her male leads physical attributes are always a bit cheesy but it adds to the fun.

The narrator Bill Nevitt, is one of my favourites. I've been known to choose books solely on the premise that he's the narrator and I'm never disappointed.

I look forward to reading (listening) to more C B Clark in the future.

Fun holiday read!

This reeled me in from the start. A great cast of characters, and the gradual thawing of the animosity between Sharla-Jean and Josh Morgan was well done and the growing relationship between them, after the initial animosity, well drawn.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, it held my interest all the way through and I thought the narrator was excellent and put across the various characters well.

A good edge-of-your seat romantic suspense

This story is almost a rehash of other story lines with changes of name, town, employer and boy. While the story was entertaining it was not original.

Sharla-Jean Bromley returns to her hometown after her father death and met Josh Morgan with whom she will have to run her late father mill for one year. 
Sharla-Jean and Josh fight but also cannot stay far way from each other for long. A Love story filled with a a good dose of mystery. But this tense atmosphere between the two of them, in my opinion, sometimes was too much. 
I really enjoyed Bill Nevitt narration, he really gives life and texture to the different characters, giving the right pace to the story.
