Her baby’s life…depends on one man and his K-9

My Thoughts:

Wow, what a hike in the mountains this was. I got to know Trent and Brooke fairly well and their biggest and scariest fears. They also got the opportunity to face those fears, much to their unwillingness, and those were not even their biggest problems.

Brooke is about to have a baby boy and there are some evil men hunting her down for that baby. They are pretty sick and determined in their intentions, and she knows how serious they are after killing her estranged husband. Her only option is to run from them into the mountains that surround the secluded cabin. Not at all what she is comfortable with.

Thankfully she runs into K-9 handler officer Trent Williston and his faithful and trustworthy German Shepherd, Rex. She has nowhere else or anyone else to go to at the moment, so Trent steps in to protect her and get her and her unborn baby to safety. This is a situation that is highly stressful to him since he is recovering from a bit of his own trauma.

However, they have no choice. They are strangers that really need to depend on one another to get out of this alive and maybe, just maybe get over their fears that have been suffocating them for so long. And begin life fresh and anew.

More from Loretta

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been mesmerized by the majesty of the mountains. I love log cabin vacations on the mountain top, sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch, and enjoying my early morning coffee. Low-lying clouds hang over them like a soft blanket and slowly dissipate while birds sing their wake-up songs. The perfect place to reminisce about life and dream about the future. Serene and beautiful.

One would think with my admiration of the mountain range I would accept all the mountains have to offer. Not so. Even though there are many hiking trails, I have ventured out on very few. Animals of the wild frighten me, but none near as much as a bear. I am certain every bear in the forest hides in the tops of trees, waiting for my arrival so they can pounce on me. I know it’s silly, but my apprehension is real.

What could be more suspenseful than to write a novel about Brooke Chandler, thirty-eight weeks pregnant, running for her and her baby’s life through the mountains? She must face her fears of the wild, including bears, if she wants to save her baby from the killers that murdered her husband. To make it worse, she’s in the forest alone in the inky darkness.

Handler Trent Williston and his K-9, Rex, escape the city, away from all pregnant women. He refuses to deliver another baby after a mishap with an emergency delivery while on the job. A camping trip to the mountains with Rex is his go-to for relaxation – until Brooke falls into his camp with three killers on her trail.

I hope you enjoy Trent and Brooke’s story as they face their challenges together.
