Take a Hike

By: Katie Ruggle

Narrated by: Callie Beaulieu

Bounty Hunter Charlie Pax is in a bind. Not only did her own mother skip town after putting the family home up as collateral, but it’s days before her first court hearing and she still hasn’t been found. If she doesn’t show, Charlie and her sisters will lose everything. There’s only one thing left for Charlie to do: make a big show of leaving town with the one piece of bait sure to lure her mother out of hiding and set a trap for her in the remote Rocky Mountains town of Simpson, Colorado.
Surly Simpson firefighter Kieran Byrne is no stranger to being on the wrong side of the law. He’s the prime suspect in the murder of a local militia leader, and he needs help proving his innocence before he can take the fall for someone else’s crime. Charlie’s got her hands more than full, but pretty soon the two strike a deal: if she can help Kieran prove his innocence, he will use his contacts to track and entrap her mom. Two birds, meet one stone.
As they break into the local militia’s compound, dodge flying bullets, and hunt for the stolen necklace, Charlie and Kieran discover they share an explosive attraction…and a growing affection neither can deny. But is there room for something as soft as romance in either of their hardscrabble worlds, or will the call of that lifelong adventure be something neither can find it within themselves to deny?

Bummed this was the end of the series

End of the series, wrapping up the big plot. This felt like one of the weakest books in the series. Some important plot elements were wrapped up super quick and without conflict after reading through each book of tension. Also every sister's book and romance takes place in one month which is insane math and romance.

Charlie is the most obnoxious sister and the chemistry between her and Kiki (I refuse any other name he has) was weak. Insert her being over the top and annoying, him being grumpy and thrown off guard, bickering, and boom instalove they are it for each other.

Kiki just kind of appeared and never left the plot without having too much reason to be there. Charlie was all gas no brakes the whole time. Lots of characters from past books and all the sisters.

It's fun seeing the Search & Rescue OG characters in this but if you don't read or enjoy that series it's kind of hard to keep up with the barrage of side characters that are important to the plot.

I dunno, glad the series is finally over. Lackluster.

Also THE COVER ties into nothing. There's no rock climbing! There's no tents!! What are we doing.

Love it

I need more. I finished this book in two days and absolutely loved it. I can’t wait to read her next book because her writing style amazes me.

Could not finish

First two in series were mildly entertaining. This one was not.
Not worth my money
