Up Close and Dangerous

A Novel

By: Linda Howard

Narrated by: Natalie Ross

Bailey Wingate's scheming adult stepchildren are surprised when their father's will leaves Bailey in control of their fortune, and war ensues. A year later, while flying from Seattle to Denver in a small plane, Bailey nearly dies herself when the engine sputters - and then fails.

Cam Justice, her sexy Texan pilot, manages to crash-land the aircraft. Stranded in the wilderness, and struggling to douse her feelings for the ruggedly handsome man by her side, Bailey begins to wonder whether this was a mere accident.

Sure enough, upon her return to civilization, Bailey's suspicions mount: Who tampered with their plane? Who's trying to reunite Bailey and her husband in the afterlife?

Trusting her life - and heart - to Cam, Bailey must outwit a killer who will stop at nothing to finish the job.

Interesting Story -- Great Narrator!

Up Close and Dangerous is not a predictable story, but a well written story of survival, romance and mystery.

Although fiction, it's very believable, as a person never knows what they are capable of until circumstances necessitate a need for strength beyond what's normal, as in this story.

Natalie Ross gave a wonderful performance.

Excellent page turner

Loved story - good voices except main male character. Too many times voice nuances didn’t match words said

Love this book

Love love those book. it was great hearing it. Performance was great, they did an excellent job expressing every scenario.

Could not stop listening.

A great story about survival and determination. This was my third Linda Howard audio book and my favorite so far. Excellent narrator and story.

One of my go to books over and over

Loved the characters, loved the story, loved the romance. Survival aspects we're cool and fun to read as were the flying/pilot aspects but if you're looking for action or suspense this isn't the story, other than the crash itself (which was AWESOME!). Having said that I fell in love with the characters and their drama, and with the different perspectives from the characters it's an engaging read, great story and I love the performance which really seems to capture the emotion of each scene, and the narrator captured the essence of the story so well I can't read the book without hearing her voice now.
Anyways, I listen to it over and over again, so much so I'd call it timeless.
