Synopsis:

MERCY RIDGE
A deathbed confession. A decades-old secret. A mountain that holds the answers--and danger closing in.
When intelligence analyst Sarah Ellison learns of her grandfather's deathbed confession connected to her brother's murder, she's determined to protect her remaining family. After further investigation, she discovers the disclosed information points to a decades-old government secret buried deep in the Cascade Mountains. With this knowledge, she looks for a guide who knows the terrain like the back of their hand.
After his father's death in a tragic mountain accident, former Navy SEAL Ryder Goodwin no longer guides for the family business. At first, Ryder refuses to help Sarah, but he sees the trouble chasing her and can't stand by while someone brings danger to his small-town mountain community.
Ryder and Sarah gear up to climb the mountain in a race against time and a looming storm. When the danger escalates, their search for answers shifts to a survival mission. Their only chance to make it through involves trusting each other and confronting the truth no one wants them to find.
This gripping romantic-suspense thriller set in the Pacific Northwest from USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard is a series opener that will sweep you away in a rush of adrenaline.

PAULA'S REVIEW:
This was a thrill-fest from the start. Not only are Sarah and Ryder battling the elements, they are being pursued by men who pose a threat but they do not kow why or who is behind it. Moreover, Sarah has secrets she is only willing to reveal a little at a time.
Excitement abounds with a believable scenario and twists that just keep coming.
Sarah is a heroine who is determined and strong, focused on her mission to find evidence that her grandfather gave on her his deathbed and might have been instrumental in her brother’s death. Ryder is an expert wilderness guide who is haunted by his father’s death on a dangerous mountain. Together, they embark on a quest that very well could get them killed in the unforgiving terrain of the Cascade Mountains. They just need to trust God and eachother.
This first in the Mercy Ridge series has me expectant for the rest of the series.
