My Review:

Felicia (Fee) Tennison is thrust into a life threatening situation when she receives a picture of a young girl that says on the back that this little one is her sister. Little does Fee realize how much danger she and her little sister find themselves in as they run from a potential killer. Fee is going to have to depend upon Sheriff Jude Drake to keep them safe. But will she be able to do that with keeping her heart safe too?

I loved the rough and tumble Jude who has a soft spot for Fee and does all he can to protect her, her sister, and the Great Dane who gets into mischief and also helps protect his young mistress. I enjoyed seeing the love story between Jude and Fee and at the same time solving the case of this sixth book in Desert Justice. You do not need to read the other books in the series since this can be read as a standalone.

I received a copy of this book through Celebrate Lit. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are my own.

More from Dana

At last! We’ve arrived at the final book in the Desert Justice series! It seems like just yesterday I was finishing book one, about cousin Beckett Duke who was falsely imprisoned. Then we met cowboy Levi and his twin Willow, dog lover Austin, donkey rescuer Nora and FINALLY sheriff Jude Duke gets his story! I am a fan of a hero with some miles under his belt, aren’t you? Could it be because I’ve got more than a few under mine? Ending this series is bittersweet because I am thrilled that the Dukes all received their happy endings, but I’ll miss writing about their adventures in Death Valley. Hope you’ll come along on my next series. (Could be there are bloodhounds in our fictional future!)

God bless!
