Book Summary
After a four-year engagement, Cassie James’s plans for the future come crashing down when her relationship abruptly ends. She needs to regain her balance, and her parents’ ranch in Montana provides the perfect escape. But respite is the last thing she finds. While camping near the Bitterroot Forest, a strange sound leads Cassie to make a startling discovery: a young child, abandoned in the wilderness. She acts on instinct, taking him home to the ranch with her. But she has no idea that by doing so, she will be forced to engage in a fight for his life—and her own.
With the help of Deputy Parker Grafton, Cassie works to uncover the mystery behind the boy’s origins. The pair is drawn closer together each step of the investigation as they follow a bizarre trail of clues. But when a series of dangerous accidents begins to plague the family ranch, Cassie and Parker realize that an unknown assailant is closing in. They have to run. In a game of cat and mouse spanning the country, Cassie and Parker will stop at nothing to protect what’s become most important to them: the child in their care—and each other.

My Review
Don't Say A Word was a great suspense book with the right touch of romance. Readers are pulled into the novel from the very first. Once you get reading you will be hooked. I know I was.
Cassie is an excellent main character. I loved her determination, loyalty, and courage to forge ahead despite many trials going on. Parker is also fantastic. He is very caring and always goes above and beyond in his job as a Deputy. From the beginning, when Parker and Cassie meet there is great interest. I liked the slow burn of the romance. Then, of course, is the sweet 2-year old Bub, that Cassie finds on her father's ranch land. This little guy was so endearing I loved him from the start. The whole mystery behind this child and why he's out on his own in the wild kept me reading faster and faster. There are many harrowing moments for Cassie, Bub, and Parker as they try and protect this little boy from the "bad" guys.
I've read other books by this author and this is right up there as one of her best. The suspense and action are written well, the emotional journeys of the characters pull you in, and the romance is clean and just right. Don't Say A Word should be the next book on your To-Read List.
