But when an escaped convict is apparently headed for Jo's Montana ranch/hotel, Tyler's role as sheriff puts him back in her life. A blinding snowstorm keeps him from her side and Jo has no way of knowing if any of her guests could be the convict who's obsessed with her. A romance writer, Jo came to the attention of murderer Aaron Doherty when he discovered her books while in prison. An earthquake allowed him the chance to track Jo down and let her know how much he loves her.

This is the second in Brennan's Prison Break series (the first was KILLING FEAR). While she's a solid writer -- and you certainly feel the pain of Jo's losses -- the book was a little too contrived and unimaginative for me. Escaped con, massive snowstorm that traps everyone within his reach, etc., just left me feeling as if I was reading a story I'd read before.
