This is a well-written, well-researched book. Morgan Lane is an arborist working in a state park. She puts her head down and does her job well, licking her wounds after having her heart broken by Wade Newland, a freelance photojournalist with whom she'd spent the previous summer. Wade, while a free spirit, had told her she wasn't a fling and Morgan believed him... until she woke up one morning and found him gone without explanation.
Morgan's not interested in the politics of the park; she just wants to do her job. When she stumbles upon an injured woman early one evening, Wade comes crashing back into her life - literally. He saves her from being shot by two mystery men, and from there on in it becomes clear to Morgan and Wade that something underhanded is going on at the park... and they don't know who to trust, except each other.
This was a story full of twists and turns. I had figured some of it out, but didn't have the big picture. There was lots of things I liked - Morgan's job, for one. You very rarely see heroines in such a job, and I loved that it was different. However, this was touted as romantic suspense and I don't think I would categorise it as such, because the romance was a small part of the plot; halfway into the book, all they'd done was kiss (but they had had a few aborted attempts at sex). It felt more like a thriller with a romantic element. This also wasn't a book you could read while half asleep, because you had to pay attention to the plot or you'd miss something.
Having said that, it's clear the author knows a lot about the subject because the detail was very good. I liked both Morgan and Wade, and I'm glad their reunion didn't drag out for half the book. If you like mysteries, this one's for you.
