Riley Scott thought her life was perfect. She had gotten a great job at Worldwide Bank and had moved up the ladder quickly. When she got moved up to executive assistant to the bank president she couldn’t have been happier. He was very attractive and powerful. Things went pretty fast from there and the next thing she knew she was engaged to Jason. The wedding was to be the social media event of the year. Then one night while working late she needed information that was only on Jason’s computer. What she found on his computer puzzled her. After printing off a copy and also making a copy on her flash drive she went home to talk to Jason about it. She didn’t get the reaction she thought she would. Jason became enraged and after hitting her and telling her she will keep her mouth shut if she knew what was good for her Riley knew she had to plan her escape from him before he killed her.

Hawk Blackwater had left Arizona PD to come to the little town of Freewill, Wyoming to take over as Sheriff after the previous sheriff had been killed. That murder was still unsolved and he was currently trying to find out what was going on with all the sightings of strange lights at night by the Laramie Mountains. He is also very curious about the new woman in town who does her best to avoid everyone. He can tell she is very skittish and looks to be on the run from something.

After a scare on the street that paralyzes Riley with fear Hawk takes her back to his place until the shock wears off and then demands to know what’s really going on with her. Riley decides she has to trust someone and Hawk feels like that person. Of course the instant sexual attraction doesn’t hurt either.

For the suspense part there were many bad guys and we got all of their POV in the book so you pretty much knew what was going on for the most part. Turns out Hawk’s problems with the lights and Riley’s find were connected.

The book isn’t a long one but it does a really good job of wrapping up everything by the end.
