Bree has had her fair share of difficulties. The loss of her parents, a not-so-recent divorce, and the disruption of her life caused by a stalker now who’s serving jail time. When the determined criminal finishes his sentence, Bree is sent into hiding. And while she’s doing all she can to steer clear of this frightening piece of her past, an old acquaintance enters the scene, determined to be part of her future.

My Review: 5 Stars
 
I've loved this series and have wondered about Bree, Braden's sister. I don't think this series needs to be read in order, as each book is about a different character, but you do get some background into each character if you read them all. 
 
Bree has a stalker and he's ready to be released from prison. With the deaths of her parents, a divorce, and two young children to raise, she doesn't have the time or energy to deal with this guy. With the help of her brother, Braden, she goes into hiding...and finds a whole new set of problems. Her bodyguard, Greyson, is an old acquaintance and friend of her brother's and he's very distracting--in a good way.

I love watching Bree blossom. In the midst of her hardships, she still has a tender heart and to watch the walls crack and allow her true, fun personality to shine through is heartening. She's a very sweet character with a few prickles that emerge occasionally. Greyson is wonderful! Handsome, brave, strong, and a protector at all costs, he draws a reader in and causes her to cheer him on, yearning for him to find success in every aspect of his life.

The suspense is ever-present, nagging on the edges of the reader's mind, and I was constantly looking over my shoulder, even while swooning. I love the way this author uses words to draw vivid images in my mind while I'm reading. The descriptions are done is such a unique way that really melted over my soul and connected me with everything--the plot, the characters, and the setting. After reading this book, I'm craving a big, juicy Honeycrisp apple, for sure! This book is like the apples that play such a big part in the story--sweet and tart moments that meld together into the perfect treat.

Content: mild romance (very mild innuendo, kissing--some a little steamy, but still clean); mild violence; mild language (cowboy swearing). Clean!
