A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

Stranded (Alaskan Courage #3) - Dani Pettrey

This is the third book in this series.  The entire series thus far consists of Submerged, Shattered, and the fourth book is Silenced.

Darcy has been called back into the world of undercover investigative reporting by her friend and former partner, Abby.  She's on to something big and frightening on the Alaskan cruise she's working on.  Darcy has taken a job writing about the cruise ship's excursions to help Abby, but before Darcy can find out what her friend suspects, Abby disappears and there's no sign of her.  Darcy feels like something bad has happened, but she's having problems getting any answers.

Gage isn't fond of what Darcy is up to, but he won't blow her cover.  He's running the excursions and is torn between how he feels about Darcy and how he feels about what she does.  His heart's been battered and he's not sure he wants to open it up to Darcy.  The problem is, the further she digs, the more dangerous the quest gets.  There's more going on than even they suspect and there's more at stake than they can imagine.

As with the other books I've read in this series, I couldn't put it down.  I love the way the author sets up the next book by letting you meet and care about the characters so that you just can't wait to pick up the next one.

I've read these out of order.  I still haven't been able to read the second book, Shattered, but I hope to sometime in the future.  I think it's possible to read them out of order, I have been, but I wish I had started this series with the first one and been able to read them in order.  With the way the next book is set up, you're going to enjoy them more if you read them in order.  This author is really talented and I'm glad I found her books!

The fifth book in the series, Sabotaged, is coming out in January.  I'm looking forward to it! Good Book!
