My Review:
It 's a short story but very sweet and romantic with a really lovely setting.
Echo has many wounds to heal both physical and emotional. She is afraid to suffer again and can not let her go, even in love. She was a firefighter and was seriously injured in a bad fire and has lost her boyfriend. Even Rey has lost everything because of an unscrupulous partner. They can try to rebuild their lives together.
Echo is a very sweet girl. She deals with great commitment of wildlife protection and thanks to her we can know cute animals and breathtaking landscapes.
Although it is the third book in the series it can be read as stand alone but I liked it so much that I can't wait to retrieve the other books.
It was a really enjoyable read, full of emotions, very credible and realistic, an interesting trip in the mountains of Montana.
Highly recommended.

EXCERPT:
“Ranger Echo Rose,” a
rumbling voice said.
Taking it slow, she turned in the direction the words came
from.
Rey Bowen was looking at her, or rather looking down at her.
He wasn’t a giant of a man, just a shade over six feet, but that didn’t stop
her from remembering she was at least seven inches shorter and only one hundred
twenty pounds. For reasons she was careful not to examine too closely, she’d
told herself the breadth of his chest and width of his shoulders were
responsible for her unsettling reaction to him.
What was she thinking? Hadn’t she learned, painfully, to
keep emotional distance between herself and men? She had, darn it. She’d never
drop her guard.
Until she’d done in her ankle, she’d spent much of her time
around physical people, most of them men. She still was around more men than
women, but in recent months she'd mostly rubbed shoulders with people who spent
their days behind desks.
Despite how she'd been forced to earn her living since last
summer, she believed she still understood the physical male. When he was around
women he was trying to impress, the breed carried himself as if he was a bull
elk, strutting a bit, hard muscles pushing against too-tight T-shirts, and
gazes giving out bedroom vibes.
Rey did none of those things. Instead, it was as if he’d
built an emotional wall around himself. The reason was none of her business,
darn it. She had enough to do dealing with her own life.
