About this listen
New York Times bestselling author Joan Johnston returns to Texas with a captivating story of justice, secrets, and a love that can heal all wounds. Dedicated Texas Ranger Jack Kittrick is hard on the trail of a killer who is preying on the helpless in a large San Antonio hospital…a hunt that leads him to Maggie Wainwright, the beautiful, enigmatic legal eagle who had access to the victims--and a motive for the crimes. The more Jack learns about Maggie, the more this secretive lady--who makes his spurs tangle and his heart run wild--enthralls and perplexes him. When her own son becomes the killer's target, Maggie can no longer keep silent about her painful, shadowy past. With everything she truly cares about at stake, Maggie must cast her fate to the Texas winds…and trust her future, and her love, to the determined lawman who has more questions for her than she has answers.

A new beginning in charming Oceanside, Washington, is exactly what Hope Godwin needs after the death of her twin brother. There are plenty of distractions, like her cozy cottage with the slightly nosy landlords next door, and a brewing drama among her students at the local high school.

There she meets Shadow, a rescue dog that everyone has given up on. But true to her name, Hope believes he’s worth saving.

Great story
I loved the story line between Maggie and Jack the romance, the anguish, the mystery... However, the narrator was not my favorite. Joan Johnston is absolutely my favorite writer, and I’ve read and/or listened to almost every book she has written... With that said I’d much prefer Joan Johnston to narrate her books than this narrator Therese Plummer.

Enough already
This book only takes place in a one-week timeframe. The amount of sex and sex talk in this book was ridiculous. I like a good story that does not have to rely on sex scenes to get the readers to keep going. It is like a comedian who can only be funny by being vulgar and cussing. You had the start of a decent story. You did not need the crutch. Believe in your ability to keep us interested with your story.

Love Therese Plummer...but not the author!
I picked this book because of the narrator. But have learned about 1/3 of the way through it - even an excellent narrator cannot fix a shallow book like this one. It verges on silly.
