Of all of Paige Shelton's books that I've enjoyed reading, I like her Alaska Wild series the most. I love learning things about life in small-town Alaska, and the main character, Beth Rivers, not only feels like a friend, but also a friend that I want to protect from any further harm.
So... it's no wonder that I got a big smile on my face when I learned that there was a new book being released this year. Let me tell you more about it! (And I won't even go into how much I love all the covers of the books.)

Synopsis:
"Beth Rivers needs to disappear. Her one-time kidnapper, Travis, is
on his way to her town in Alaska, and she's losing time to get out
quickly.
The perfect spot for Beth and her boyfriend, Tex, to hide, presents itself in a camp in the woods, away from Benedict. But when their trip takes them by Blue Mine, a small community that has seen tragedy over the last couple months, plans get diverted. Beth and Tex bring the widow of a recently murdered man back to Benedict for Police Chief Gril to investigate only to find that nothing is quite what it seems. When the woman vanishes, Beth must be on the alert for further danger. Who knows what other unwelcome disappearances--or appearances--might be lurking in the unforgiving Alaska storms."

Perfect Storm sounds like just the sort of wilderness tale I love to read, and-- since it's not available until December-- you have time to catch up with the series if you're a little behind... wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
This sounds so compelling, Cathy! And I like the idea of adding to Beth's backstory, too. It's tough to balance the plot itself with letting us into the character's history.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is.
DeleteAh, another series I've meant to start, partly based on your recommendations and partly based on the location. As you say, there is time to catch up before this one comes out. Hoping to make it a priority!
ReplyDeleteAND you can catch up during the summer!
DeleteHer Alaska Wild series is my favorite of hers, too. And this one sounds amazing! I still need to read Lost Hours, but like you said, I've got time. :D
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting for that guy to show up. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens.
DeleteSomething to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is.
DeleteSounds on the edge of your seat reading. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! :-)
DeleteThis is what happens when I go away for the weekend - I nearly miss news of the next book in one of my favorite series! I appreciate you putting this one on my radar. The bad guy from the past has been such a looming shadow thus far that I'm curious to see how this storyline will play out. And I hope that there are plans to continue the series even after that happens.
ReplyDeleteYes! I'm really looking forward to how this storyline is going to play out. Like you, I hope the series continues.
