The Colony by Cami Checketts
To protect her sons from the mistakes of her past, Brinlee Trapper escapes to a secluded mountain home. But there are dangers lurking in the mountains she has never encountered. The little family is saved from injury by Jed, a mysterious hunter. Brinlee is drawn to him, but she worries about his involvement with a peaceful commune hidden deep in the mountains behind her property.
Lance, Brinlee’s attentive neighbor, has his own troubled history. Between his obvious attraction to Brinlee and his developing love for her children, Brinlee finds it more than difficult to guard her heart against this tender intrusion.
While Jed offers a life of excitement and freedom, Lance holds the key to the family Brinlee always wanted. When it comes time to choose, she learns that both men have secrets that could shatter her fledgling trust in men and the wrong decision could leave more than her heart exposed to danger.
My Thoughts:It was interesting for me to be in on the editing process for this book. It was fun to see how the book evolved, while she stayed true to herself and her writing. Cami writes an interesting story. I LOVED this book! What I enjoyed the most was NEVER knowing which guy was the right guy for Brinlee. One chapter I was sure it should be Lance. Then the next chapter I'd change my mind and pick Jeb. The story was surprising and unpredictable. I enjoyed every moment of it. Cami did a great job creating suspense and intrigue. Thanks for a great read!!
