| Ryker Fall Book 4 |
An innocent hiding in the shadows
Living on the sidelines has always suited Mandy Robbins but all that changes when Ted Hosking challenges her to step into the light. For some reason the dangerously sexy Falls Lodge owner has decided to personally play a part in her metamorphosis. She is determined not to fall for the taciturn man who has “commitment phobic” written on his forehead, but Ted is the only man who has ever seen the real her beneath the quietness. As her past comes calling, she realizes that with Ted it’s not just her heart that’s at risk … it’s her life.
Her big, bad protector
Ted Hosking has no problem with hard work or living in the spotlight; it’s what he knows and how he’s built his business. He’s a take-charge kind of guy, so how is it possible he has no clue how to handle Mandy Robbins? She scares him. There’s no getting around that. Gentle, sweet, and shy, she’s Ted’s opposite in every way. There shouldn’t be any surprises in life, not for a man as jaded as he. But when he leaves her bed after their first night together, everything changes. What he feels for her has the power to change the very foundation he’s built his life on, and that shocks him to the core. When danger looms and threatens Mandy, he knows that staying away for her protection is no longer an option. Their love has only just begun and he’ll fight with everything he has for her, no matter the cost.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
I love Wendy Vella's contemporary series. First Lake Howling and now Ryker Falls. And I love it even more when they have a mini-crossover! Book 4 of the Ryker Falls series and now we get Mandy and Ted's story and man was it a good one! When Mandy and Ted have a conversation that is brutally honest and real, it sparks change. Mandy is tired of being shy and timid and Ted is ready to show her how to break out of her shell and be the strong woman he knows she is. She may have trouble showing it, but he knows there is a strength in Mandy. While Mandy finds her wings, Ted realizes that the spark between them is getting harder to ignore. Their pasts are mysteries to everyone and especially to one another, but for good reason. I really loved reading their story, especially with their intriguing pasts that don't come to light until late in the book. You can't help but root for them to get together! Another great book in this series and I cannot wait for the next! We still have some main characters whose stories haven't been told and I for one am looking forward to them!
