Publisher's summary

When history professor Alison Carter became a consultant to the film version of the Wild West legend she’d dedicated her career to researching, she couldn’t possibly have known that she would not only get a front-row seat to a full-blown Hollywood circus but would innocently witness something that would put her life in peril. Nor did she expect that a tall stranger in a cowboy hat would turn the movie — and her world — completely upside down.

A. J. Gallagher didn’t crash the set in dusty Arizona to rub elbows with Hollywood’s elite. Unable to ignore ghosts from the past that refuse to stay buried, A.J. came to put an end to the false legend that has tarnished the reputation of his family. But when he confronts Alison, sparks fly. And when Alison is targeted by ruthless criminals, suddenly she and A.J. must face the intense attraction that threatens to consume them—and survive the danger that threatens their very lives.

Critic reviews

"[Brockmann] is one of the superstars of romantic suspense.” ( The Dallas Morning News)

laugh out loud funny

This is my first book by Suzanne Brockman, but it won't be my last. The characters are engaging, the performances are delightful, and it left me wanting more.

It is rare that I cry at the end of an audiobook,

This book is written with a great sense of humor and family connections. At first I thought, Oh Sure, but you quickly become interested in this story and waiting to see what will happen next. I like romances, putting it mildly, but this one is not only romantic, but fun and suspenseful. I don't want to give anything away, but trust me when I say this is written with an eye toward actual current events and how they have affected so many people. I found myself tearing up on my commute as this book ended because I liked all the characters so much, I knew I was going to miss not having them with me every day. We could all use a Grandfather like "Jamie" in our lives!!

Enjoyable

Truly an enjoyable story. There's times that I cried and times I laughed. Melody's struggle in her early life and marriage was so traumatic and yet, she was finally able to find love and happiness and trust.

Grampa’s spirit needs the truth to be told.

There is some misunderstanding that this is a mystery book, but it is more of a romance with a bit of supernatural and lite mystery integrated into it. I read this a long time ago, back with I read everything Suzanne Brockmann wrote. The Troubleshooter series is the best of her writing, this one borders on too much of a romance to really love. With that said I did enjoy the story. There is a wide mix of good and bad review for this book I say it is somewhere in the middle. If you like romances give it a shot, if you’re looking for a mystery, you might want to skip this one. Patrick Lawlor is not my favorite narrator, and he does a lot of narration for Suzanne Brockmann’s books, but you get used to it after a while, but I can see that he is not for everyone.

Loved it!

This was my first Suzanne Brockmann book and I thought it was great. Very different, in a good way. I loved the narrators. At first I thought each narrator would be the male/female characters but the both spoke for the same characters. As strange as that sounds it was very well done. Both narrators are excellent, the story was excellent. The story of AJ and Allison was sweet and the ending was excellent. Some of the romance novels I read the story is great but the ending stinks, too sweet and sappy...this one is perfect. I ended the book with a smile on my face. I'm now a big fan of Ms. Brockmann and have just downloaded another one of her books. Enjoy!

Wonderful story!

This is a wonderful story that is full of interesting characters, an unpredictable plot that is funny and tender that left me smiling. The narrators did an amazing job and I will definitely listen to this one again and again! Don't miss this great book.

wonderful multiple stories and performances

the blended stories of the past and present of the characters were wonderful, enhanced by the performances of Angela Dawe and Patrick lawlor. Though it was several intricate stories and points of view, it was very enjoyable and emotionally affecting. I was sorry when it ended, and look forward to looking for other Suzanne Brockmann audio books.

Interesting

Definitely not what I was expecting but definitely entertaining. I was involved tears in a couple of parts, but the best character was definitely Jamie.

Fun, exciting Romance with a great story

My first Suzanne Brockmann novel, but I'll certainly read more! This was a fun, exciting romance with good depth in the characters, a historical mystery and a funny but determined ghost! The duel narrators was a little annoying, but do-able.

Creative

This is the first Suzanne Brockman book for me and I am impressed. The story is really cool and flows well. The characters are great and having a male and female narrorators works well for the story.
