About this audiobook
It may seem odd to seek peace by moving to a war-torn African country, but for medical missionary Dr. Cynthia Myers, it provided a way to escape a shallow life of unearned wealth, a philandering fiancé, and a father now square in the public eye
as vice president of the United States. At least here she knows her work and life have meaning. But all that is thrown into chaos when she fails to save the life of a local warlord’s mortally wounded son.
As part of the Army Special Forces A-Team on a mission to capture and subdue the warlord, Captain Rick Norton is compelled to use deadly force to save Cynthia’s life. Enraged at the violence she witnessed and riddled with guilt that
men died because of her, Cynthia doesn’t want to like anything about Rick and his team—but an unexpected attraction is taking hold.
With two members of his team badly injured and rebels in hot pursuit, Rick will have to draw upon all his strength and cunning to get her out alive … because he’s beginning to think that, despite their differences, they just may be able to make a life together.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very good book and conclusion to the series. There are three main stories going on. The one that has been building since the first book, which is the story of Sarah Hamilton and why she has really "returned from the dead". Another is specific to this book and is the story of Ainsley and Sawyer, as is the search for a gang of jewel thieves that may be using the production company as a cover.Ainsley is the oldest of the Hamilton girls and has been the one to watch out for the others after their mother died. She's tried to be a good example for them. A few years earlier she had felt the need for change, dropped out of law school and became a location scout for a production company that makes commercials. For the last several months she has had the feeling that she's being followed. She doesn't know who or why. When one of her location searches ends in a landslide, she feels lucky that a cowboy was there to save her. She finds him incredibly attractive and is tempted to let go of her good girl ways for a bit.Sawyer wasn't there by chance. On medical leave from his job with the FBI, he's bored and willing to help out his old friend Sheriff Frank Curry when he's asked to protect Ainsley from a potential stalker. He signs on as an extra for the commercial to give him a reason to be near her. He doesn't expect to be so fascinated by all the facets of her personality or so attracted to her physically. He made the mistake of getting involved with a woman he rescued before and it didn't end well.I enjoyed the development of their romance. Both of them are independent, intelligent and loyal to those they care about. There was also an immediate attraction between them, stronger than either had ever felt before. Ainsley decides that Sawyer is the perfect person to help her rid herself of a "problem" and Sawyer has a hard time resisting. And though he knows he shouldn't get involved, he finds Ainsley too irresistible. There are bumps in their road, though, as Sawyer's ex, also an FBI agent, is there too, working on the jewel thief case. She isn't happy to see Sawyer with Ainsley and does several mean-spirited things to keep them apart, at the same time trying to convince Sawyer to come back to her. When Ainsley finds out the truth of why Sawyer is there, on top of his connection to Kitzie, she's sure she has made a mistake. It takes a couple of life threatening events to bring them back together.The various suspense threads were fantastic, with quite a few twists and turns. The stalker situation was intense, with the stalker getting more and more aggressive. Sawyer is pretty sure he has it figured out, but until he's certain he doesn't want to get too far from Ainsley. Just when you think he's got it all wrapped up, it turns out that there is more to the story. Ainsley's life is endangered even further by a stunt that Kitzie pulls, and it is a terrifying close call for Sawyer to show up in time to save her.The jewel thieves case that Kitzie is working on was interesting. She and her partner had been working it for a while, and she finally feels like they are getting close. I enjoyed following along as they put the clues together. Kitzie's independence and competitiveness puts her in danger, and also risks the resolution of the case. There's a twist to the ending that infuriates Kitzie and doesn't show her particularly well. She does get a chance to redeem herself later.The biggest story, however, has been the story of Sarah Hamilton. I have gone back and forth on her throughout the series, never quite sure whether I could trust her. It has come out that before she met and married Buck, she had been the leader of a revolutionary group called The Prophecy. In this book we learn more about her disappearance more than twenty years earlier and what was behind it. Now she is becoming more afraid of what is going to happen when Buck is elected president. I felt bad for her and her fears of what would happen when her memories fully returned, and was pretty impressed with her growing determination discover the truth. Her confrontation with her ex-lover and current leader was intense and showed just how dangerous he was. The final scene on election night was truly scary in how possible it could be in real life.I also enjoyed following along with Sheriff Frank Curry and his wife Nettie. He has been such a big part of several series. He is a man who is always determined to protect the people he serves to the best of his ability, and will go to any length to do so. But he's also getting a bit burned out and wants to spend more time with his wife. It was fun to see that he's also realistic enough to know that a typical retirement is not for him. I loved the solution that he came up with, and the effect it has on Nettie also.

DanielsMy Thoughts...This was a wonderful read that once you start reading it finding it hard to put down until the end. It was quite interesting seeing Hinsley Hamilton finally getting her HEA which as a good ending to this explosive series 'The Montana Hamiltons #6.' The reader will have to keep up because there will be so much happening. We find that many of the characters and events will come together revealing there part in this 'Prophecy' story.' Now what that is about ties in to the last series...'Into Dust' that dealt with the question of just what the Prophecy's end game was. Anyway on into this series we find Ainsley Hamilton, the older daughter to the presidential candidate Buckmaster Hamilton being a target of a stalker and that's where Sawyer Nash comes into the picture where he is to keep a keep on her. Will he be able to protect her? This will be one explosive ending...where I say you will have to pick this one up to see for yourself how well this author brings it all out to the readers. Be ready for a lots of 'psycho, fatal attraction, crazy type villains that are very strong wanting to obtain their objections with many twist and turns. Will they succeed? This is definitely one of those reads that will be have one guessing who...until the very end with all of its mystery, intrigue and oh yes, romance. If you are looking for a good complexed romance suspense that will give you one 'incredible story' then I would recommend this one to you as one good read. This was a good ending for one good series..The Montana Hamiltons!
