My Thoughts:

Loved it!!!
I always know when I get a book written by Margaret Daley that I'm in for a treat.  I'll tell you a secret, when my husband spots one of her books he will laugh and say I guess you'll be up late tonight.  It's true because when I open one of her books I'm immediately drawn into the story and don't stop reading until the last page is turned.  For this reason I use the term one setting read for a lot of books.  
This book is the 3rd installment in the Everyday Heroes series, but it's definitely a stand alone story.  This book brings elements of edge of your seat suspense, plot twists and turns, complex characters, romantic tension, turmoil, crisis of faith, and love.  
This story centers around Sadie Williams.  She grew up Butte City, Colorado with her twin sister, Katie.  Of course life doesn't always turn out the way you plan, especially for Sadie. 4 years ago she was engaged to literally the boy, Brock Carrington, next door and was planning their future.  Then came the dread news that Brock was injured in battle and flown to Germany.  Sadie immediately flew out to be with him, but Brock ended their relationship and broke her heart all at the same time.  When she hears Brock is returning home Sadie knows she must leave and learn to live without him. 
Sadie has been busy in the past 4 years.  She has written a cookbook and her cooking shows are very popular.  She has decided to moved back to Butte City to be closer to  her sister who still resides in the family cabin in the mountains.  With Brock living next door to Katie, Sadie dreads accidentally running into him, but with Katie's cryptic call and the "twin spidey sense" Sadie knows something is very wrong.  
Brock has not spoken with Sadie in years.  He knew his harsh words were cruel to her, but he didn't want her pity not then or now.  Learning to live without his leg was one thing, but dealing with PTSD was always with him and not something that was easy.  His support group had helped a lot and so had his support dog, Bella.  In fact he has just started to train Bella in search and rescue which gave him great satisfaction in being able to help people. 
This is a fantastic book.  It is a mystery laced with spine tingling suspense.  The characters are complex, but endearing as they endure with the turmoil of dealing with romantic tension during life and death situations.  This is a book I would recommend to anyone who love suspense.
