New York reporter Paige MacKenzie has a hidden motive when she heads to the small town of Timberton, Montana. Assigned to research the area’s unique Yogo sapphires for the Manhattan Post, she hopes to reconnect romantically with handsome cowboy Jake Norris. The local gem gallery offers the material needed for the article, but the discovery of an old diary, hidden inside the wall of a historic … hotel, soon sends her on a detour into the underworld of art and deception.
Each of the town’s residents holds a key to untangling more than one long-buried secret, from the hippie chick owner of a new age café to the mute homeless man in the town park. As the worlds of western art and sapphire mining collide, Paige finds herself juggling research, romance and danger. With stolen sapphires and shady characters thrown into the mix, will Paige escape the consequences of her own curiosity?

Not very stimulating. This is the second time I have tried to read this author and both times disappointed. Boring and predicable
This is a good series. The author makes her characters likable and you look forward to the next installment. They can be read independently so that is a plus too.
Very entertaining. I like the main character.
A new territory for me to read about and enjoy – Jackson’s Hole sounds beautiful and “secretive”! The idea of buried treasure keeps you reading and wondering about the character’s motives. A bit of “time travel’ makes it interesting…
Enjoyed the book and the twist toward the end.
Reminded me of a Lifetime movie.
Comfortable, feel good, light romance book.
I read at least 50% of the book before I could figure out what the mystery was – it was very slow getting into a plot and was pretty slow for about 75% of the book. Only the last few chapters were worth reading.
