 They’re as Different as Could Be.  
But They’ll Need to Trust Each Other to Survive the Wilderness   . . . and the Dangers Chasing Them.

 City dweller John McCall never expected to be out in the High   Sierras of 1868 on a wild - goose chase to find the Chiltons’   supposedly lost grandson. But now that he’s out here, things have   gotten even more complicated, mostly due to wildcat Penny Scott.   She ’s not like any woman he’s ever met – comfortable in the       woods,  with a horse, and with a gun.

When Penny and John are taken against their will by a shadowy figure looking for evidence they don’t have, both realize they’ve stumbled into something dangerous. With their friends and family desperately searching for them, Penny and John must make a daring escape.

When they emerge back into the real world, they discover their kidnapper just won’t stop. This city man and country woman must bring a powerful, ruthless man to justice, all while fighting a very inconvenient attraction to each other.

My Thoughts:

Every book I read by author Connealy gets better and better. In The Unexpected Champion,  third in the High Sierra Sweethearts series, the action and adventure continues with Penny Scott and Pinkerton agent John McCall who have just met at the end of the last book. As they head back to town to report to the sheriff from the last encounter, they are both kidnapped and their adventure together is only beginning.

What I really liked about this story was just how suited these two were together even being forced into an uncomfortable life change, they don’t seem to lose their cool. Penny has the smarts in the woods and John has the smarts in the city and they both come to the conclusion that they are stronger, smarter, and work really well together. I think the cover captures their characters well.

I highly recommend this story with the author’s trademark humor, interesting situations, and a romance you can’t help but cheer on while the danger and action abounds.


I received a copy of this novel from the publisher. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.
