Book seven in The High Sierras series a well written story that I was not putting down until I had finished reading. Levi Gallagher came back to Hangman’s Loss PD after he had trouble in the city with an arrest he and his partner where making. Zoey Hardesty has had a crush on Levi since high school. This story has suspense, drama, danger, villains, attempted murder, and romance. I want to read more in this series.
The first word that came to mind is….lovely…..realistic characters meant for each other with a few hurdles that they had to overcome……very satisfying read!

This is the seventh book in the High Sierra series and what a wonderful book this is! The storyline is well-written and drew me in right from the start. It is a well-written book and as with all the others books, there is the element of suspense. No worries if you haven’t read the first six, you can easily read this as a standalone. Levi and Zoey have a definite attraction, but they try to deny it. They both have issues from their past that they need to deal with. As they start opening up and getting closer, there is danger that they have to deal with as well. With the romance, mystery, and suspense this was quite the page-turner. A wonderful addition to the series -I definitely recommend it!

Oh man did I love this book. It was well written and has a great storyline. It’s emotional and has a nice amount of suspense. I really need to go back and read the first six books in the series. Now saying that, this book definitely reads as a standalone. I haven’t read the first six books, but I never felt lost or like I am missing anything with this story. You will obviously have some small spoilers since the books are all connected.
Levi is finally moving back home to Hangman’s Loss and is renting one of the family cabins. Zoey is hi neighbor. His older brother Bradley, the Chief of Police, asks him to keep an eye on her.

We get another great addition tot he loves of the town folks of Hangman’s Loss a small town in the High Sierras where love and loyalty are the back bone of the town This is Levi Gallagher’s story
He has returned to Hangman’ Loss to become a member of the local police force under the control of his older brother Brad He was involved in an officer involved shooting in the city and was hung out to dry in the eyes of social media even though he was cleared He reconnects with his new neighbour when he is tasked with her hit and run case Zoey always had a crush on Levi growing up but never acted on it now she has learned he is a cop she wants nothing to do with him because she knows that cops can’t be trusted But as her case becomes more and more volatile she will have to rely on him and maybe learn that some cops can indeed be trusted and are worth giving your heart to.
The best of the series so far. When Levi moves in next door, Zoey can’t fight the attraction and the chemistry between them is off the charts. When he is put in charge of investigating the hit and run that nearly kills her, you can really see how much he cares for her, but also how worried he is about all of the things that start happening to her. Once I started reading this, I couldn’t stop

Break Away is Diane Benefiel’s seventh book in the High Sierra series and is definitely a second chance at romance. Zoey had a high school crush on Levi, and when he returns home after many years, she realises her feelings have not diminished. I’m a sucker for the sexy, broody bad boy vibe, and Levi has it in spades! But the storyline also has emotion, danger and a powerful attraction that is not only undeniable, but totally unavoidable too. These characters have great chemistry and the romantic suspense plot is well written and a real page-turner.
