MY REVIEW

Haley, a newly appointed CEO to her father's company Whitcombe Aeronautics, decides to take a few days off in the North Cascades National Park, but because of a man in her father's company, things take a turn for the worse. But can Ezra, a park ranger, come to her rescue?

The storyline is a cat and mouse run for your life- a story filled with economic espionage and murder. Can a city girl escape her pursuers in the forest?

I was on the edge of my seat most of the time. Haley is a woman filled with courage and determination but carries hurt from a bad relationship. The story puts her in situations where trust will be tested and also learn who she really is meant to be.

There was a great ending that wrapped everything up nicely, characters that are well-developed, and will engage you into their life right away. I received a complimentary copy from the author and voluntarily choose to review it.

More from Kellie

One of my favorite things about being a writer is living out wild adventures in my imagination. I get to enjoy all the action and feels without any of the unpleasant real-life problems I’d face if I were actually being chased by bad guys with guns. The more exciting and far-off the setting, the better! My family loves to travel and to camp, so we’ve spent a lot of time visiting national parks around the U.S. Our favorites include Grand Teton, Rocky Mountain, Devil’s Tower, and Badlands. We pile our four kids into the car, fill it to the brim with gear, and tent our way from park to park for weeks at a time in the summer.

 

For Hunted in the Wilderness, I wanted to explore a park we haven’t had the chance to visit yet—North Cascades National Park in Washington state. In fact, my first glimpse of the story came to me when I was scrolling through my Facebook feed and saw a picture of a lake in the Cascades. Inspiration struck, and I knew the heroine of my next book had just crash-landed her Cessna airplane in those mountains, and she needed a handsome, single park ranger to come help her escape the bad guys.

 

What makes this park such a perfect setting for a romantic suspense is not only the gorgeous scenery, but also the fact it’s very remote. The region is easy enough to access via road from Seattle, but most of the protected land can only be reached on foot, horseback, or float plane. Because I hadn’t been there myself, I relied on a topographic map and lots of research to help me craft the setting and make it an indispensable part of the plot.

 

Of course, now that I’ve studied the trail systems so extensively, I’d love to visit the Cascades in person one day. One of my teenaged sons who loves hiking has all sorts of plans for us to take a long backpacking trip out there, even though neither of us has ever backpacked before. I might have to work up my courage a bit before I’ll be ready to hit the trail without our minivan full of gear. 😉
