A great beginning to a new series!
I received a complimentary copy of this book and I am voluntarily reviewing it.
Wow is all I can say. This book had two mysteries in it. I have a feeling that the disappearance of James McKinnon will be a sub-plot throughout the series. The second plot is who is poisoning the people and the animals on Wolf Creek Ranch and why? Bree returns home after being away for 13 years. She disappeared after the love of her life Angus McKinnon joined the military. She was to wait for him to come back after training to marry and follow him around. But Bree leaves Montana for Alaska after her step-father was killed in a barn fire.
Bree is keeping a secret. One that she will reveal after figuring out who is poisoning the water supply to Wolf Creek. She has to stay away from Angus. She loves him too much to be around him. She has to protect him from her secret. What could be so horrendous that she left him all those years ago?
This story is a gripping one. I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. My poor e-reader received a workout with this one. I can’t wait for the next installment.
It you love intrigue romances, then this one is for you. The story will keep you entertained and like me, you will be sorry to say good-bye until the next one is released.
Keep up the great work Ms. James.
I enjoyed this entertaining read. A interesting and engaging combination of romance and suspense will capture and hold your attention. This is a second chance at love for Angus and Bree. It was easy to feel for and root for this couple. With action, mystery, drama and lots of emotions, I thought this was a very good book and a enticing start to this new series.
A very good start for the author’s new series titled Iron Horse Legacy. Iron Horse is the ranch were 5 siblings, 4 men who have been serving our country, and one sister who has stayed and worked the ranch with their father , grew up.

Bree Lansing, the love of his life , left town thirteen years ago, right when they were going to start their life together. Why she left is a mystery but now that she’s back to help her mother after she was poisoned, he’s determined to find out.
The story is full of action , and suspense. The bad guys abound, some whodunit is in the mix, as well as hunky good guys.
Will Bree confess to why she left, will James be found and will Angus and Bree get their HEA?
With interesting secondary characters, this series promised to keep us entertained for a long time.
