"Exciting romantic suspense"
Larger than life Connecticut Governor Mike Parisi drowns in
a freak accident while trying to rescue a bluebird in his
pool. Bluefield Detective Zoe West wonders why a man who
could not swim dived into the pool. She also wonders if the
explosion at a barbecue that almost killed the second in
command Allyson Stockwell really an accident. However,
Mike's death means that Allyson will finish the term as
governor. Allyson's two children (twelve-year-old Henry and eleven
years old Lillian) are at a Texas dude ranch. However,
they flee frightened as can be to the home of their
mother's best friend attorney Kara Galway, who just came
home to Texas after years of practicing law in
Connecticut. They persuade Kate to take them to their
country home. Kate reluctantly agrees because the kids are
so frightened. Now everyone seems to seek the missing
children of the new governor of Connecticut, but it is
Texas Ranger Sam Temple who finds Kate and the kids. As
Sam and Kate fall in love, he vows to keep the three of
them safe. STONEBROOK COTTAGE, the sequel THE CABIN, is an exciting
romantic suspense that never eases off the throttle until
the final kiss. The key to the action packed story line is
the dynamic cast, especially the lead couple and the kids.
Carla Neggers continues her climb to the top rung of the
sub-genre with her usual non-stop romantic thriller. Harriet Klausner
