It's time for this cold case to warm up! Dahlia is looking for any help to find her missing sister. She hires a local investigation group owned by the Hudson siblings, who know a thing or two about never giving up no matter how cold a case is. So far all the clues Dahlia found lead right to a defunct cult that used to be located near Sunrise, WY, and now she needs Grant Hudson to help investigate their town's notorious past. I really enjoyed the fast pace of the investigation, how even the increasing danger let them know they were on the right track. The author did a wonderful job of illustrating the emotional impact of unsolved cold cases. There are enough clues that the ending isn't exactly surprising, but there's still plenty of suspense and intrigue along the way. I love how Dahlia is not portrayed as the usual strong, take charge, determined woman. Rather, she finds the strength she needs even when it is not inherent, and she is constantly having to boost her own morale to keep from feeling overwhelmed. Grant's heart is led by his protective instincts at first as he falls in love with the gentle Dahlia. Their HEA was the most natural thing to watch as it developed so beautifully. I really loved getting to know all the Hudson siblings and am looking forward to reading more in the exemplary series. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
