A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Edie
Former FBI agent Elizabeth Ward, on the run from the mob and the authorities, found herself deep in the Montana Mountains. Having gone deep undercover to catch a dangerous criminal, she was physically and emotionally exhausted, betrayed by the very agency sworn to protect her. Hidden deep in the mountains, Eliza knew it was only a matter of time before she was found, and permanently silenced.
Nat Sullivan and his family were trying to hang on to the Triple H Ranch. With the ranch near bankruptcy, Nat had opened a rustic working retreat to raise needed income. Little did he know his first lodger was a beautiful stranger who would show up in the middle of the night, exhausted, scared, and trigger-happy.
The longer Eliza stayed at the ranch, the more suspicious Nat became when he realized not all was as it appeared. Although she fit in with the ranch hands and did her share of the chores, her suspicious nature and mannerisms caused Nat to regret allowing her to stay. On the other hand, he also knew the growing attraction between them could not be denied. When her presence caused danger to his family, Nat had a difficult decision to make.
Toni Anderson’s Her Sanctuary is a riveting fast-paced suspense story, filled with twists, turns, and danger. As the story flows seamlessly between the protagonists and antagonists, the tension rises to fever pitch. Just when you think you know the good guys from the bad, Anderson provides a surprising twist, or two.
Her Sanctuary is a powerful story of love and betrayal, loyalty in the face of extreme danger, and finding family where one least expects. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves the thrill of the chase as it is played out against the backdrop of the majestic Montana Mountains.
