Description

Sure, it's romantic up amidst the snow-capped peaks of Wyoming's Grand Teton Mountains, but Hanna Alexander has only one thing on her mind: trying to save the family lodge. That is, she did-right up until she hired mountain-guide Micah Gallagher to help raise revenues...When Micah Gallagher is hired by the spirited Hanna Alexander to help raise revenues for her failing family lodge, a high-country adventure filled with love, intrigue, and romance ensues. Almost immediately, Hanna betrays her own professional reservations and finds herself enamored by the mystery of Micah's carefully guarded past. When the two unexpectedly fall in love, Micah is forced to face the hidden places that haunt him, and Hanna must address her fears and determine if forgiveness can make way for love. Teeming with suspicion and intrigue, this Grand Teton adventure leaves listeners struggling with the Christian principle of forgiveness in the face of emotional entanglements, fears of the heart, and the inevitable agony of love.Has fate brought the two together, or will circumstances tear them apart? What are the secrets that Micah guards so closely? Will love and forgiveness conquer the entanglements of their past and make way for a future together?… (more)

I really enjoyed this book. It was nice to read a romantic story without it going over the top.

I liked this well enough until the end. I understand that Hunter is trying to make a point about forgiveness, but I think she misses the mark. There is a difference between embracing forgiveness and romanticizing a terrible crime - and I think Hunter is skating towards the latter. I generally do

like Hunter though and I think this was an anomaly for her. I'm looking forward to reading her other books and hoping that she uses better judgment in her plotting next time.
