Paul Thomas appears to have everything a man could want: a great job teaching at the college level, stability, and a blossoming relationship with a beautiful young woman. Underneath the facade is a tragic past. Paul's father had been killed in the military, followed by his mother's death, for which he is responsible. Worst of all is the unrelenting hatred directed at him by his brother, his only remaining family.
After the repeated tragedies, Sam chooses to isolate himself until he realizes that he exists in a prison of his own making. To break his personal stalemate and get back at his brother, he decides to kidnap Cora, the woman Paul loves. The relationship between brothers becomes increasingly volatile when Cora almost dies during an escape attempt. The roles of hero and villain become increasingly blurred as both men strive in desperate attempts to move beyond their tormented pasts. The backdrop of the Rocky Mountains of Northern Montana provides the setting for their ultimate confrontation.

The writing is reminiscent of a Nicholas Sparks novel: excellent depth and development of characters, leading you on an ever twisting path of intrigue. My only disappointment was to find that the remaining books in the series have not yet been published! Now waiting anxiously (and impatiently) for the next book!
