Settling an Old Score

I love a good Harlequin Intrigue and Delores Fossen didn't let me down with Settling an Old Score! I loved Eli from the very beginning. He was down to earth, had common sense, but still a caring aura to him even as a Texas Ranger. Whether he was trying to dodge bullets or calming a worried mother, you could tell he cared.

You couldn't help but feel for Ashlyn when her daughter was kidnapped and left on the doorstep of the person she blamed for the death of her friend years ago. Eli also happens to be an old flame that she wasn't 'quite' over yet. (Read DEFINITELY still loves him) That said, NEVER mess with a momma bear's cub and Ashlyn didn't like finding Eli holding her cub.

Things go from bad to worse for Ashlyn and Cora immediately and she's left to rely on Eli to keep them safe while they figure out who is after Ashlyn and why they're setting Eli up to take the fall. Helped by his brothers and his devoted deputies, Eli follows the trail while trying to keep the woman he still loves safe. He knows the events that happened in their past was his fault, but as the thread is pulled, it becomes more obvious to the both of them that maybe those events had been out of their control, too.

There are a lot of bullets flying, a lot of people dying, and a lot of love happening in this intrigue. When the final twist comes you won't be expecting it! I loved the story and the idea that I found a new series to read in the Longview Ridge Ranch so I can read about all of the characters I've already fallen in love with.
