3.75 stars

I thought this book really held up with the other books in this series. Plus, it gave us closure on Sabrina's death and a plausible explanation for what happened.

Although a good read, I felt like it lost a lot of the tension and suspense we normally see in an Intrigue book. I think this would have worked better in Harlequin's Desire line where those dynamics are not as important.

This book did the Harlequin formula justice but I personally sensed a lack of that usual Intrigue spark.

A good read, but I wanted more. The climax of the suspense storyline ended too quickly for me. I guess it is indeed all about the mystery for me. Definitely going to continue in the Colton universe, though.

Another in the Coltons of Roaring Springs series. This time, it's Remy Colton who encounters his ne'er do well brother's former fiancee, Vanessa Fisher, when she arrives to gain closure on why she broke off her engagement with Seth. When there is no room at any inn in the ski-crazy town, Remy sets her up in the family suite until that doesn't work out and she ends up staying at his place while a blizzard closes down roads and planes that might take her back to Boulder.

In the course of her time in Roaring Springs, Seth goes off his rocker--in more ways than one--and his behavior reveals what he's really been up to for years. That doesn't stop Remy from falling for Vanessa or she for him, but will either of them be safe if Seth isn't put into prison?
