I can remember a time when books published by Harlequin were looked down upon as inferior. In my opinion, those days are over, at least when you get hold of one as expertly crafted as those by Dana Mentink. Despite their shorter format, this author manages to cram a surprising amount of content and well designed plot into one volume.<\/p>\n
Targeted in the Desert<\/em> is an emotionally driven story that features an young woman abandoned at birth who has just learned that she has a much younger sister who is in need of her protection. It\u2019s not long before she realizes that someone wants the child dead and Felicia is determined to prevent it at all costs, even if it means working with former boyfriend Jude Duke to do so.<\/p>\n The final installment of the six book Desert Justice series, Targeted in the Desert<\/em> is the perfect end to the series. Once again a member of the Duke family is faced with a high stakes, life or death situation against the backdrop of Death Valley. Other members of the family make brief appearances in the pages filled with danger, action, and suspense. A surprise ending is the icing on the cake and readers will close the covers with satisfaction of a book well done. And as I\u2019ve come to expect, a dog with a personality of its own is another special character.<\/p>\n If you are not acquainted with books by this author, make it a point to read this series if you can.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I voluntarily reviewed a digital copy of this book provided by Celebrate Lit. A favorable review was not required.
