Searching for the truth
could get them killed…
When new evidence surfaces about a tragic boating accident that put her ex-boyfriend’s father in prison, private investigator Dory Winslow’s determined to look into it. But now someone’s dead set on silencing her. And working with Chad Jaggert—the father of her secret child—may be the only way to survive the treacherous truth about the tragedy that once tore them apart.

Dana Mentink is one of those authors who could write a phone book and I’d read it because it would be thoroughly entertaining. Fortunately, she writes romantic suspense so I don’t have to resort to phone books, but I totally would if I had to haha.
Secrets Resurfaced is the last book (I believe) in the Roughwater Ranch Cowboys series, and it was a great way to end, if we must. It starts off with several breath-holding moments and keeps that tension going throughout the story – just about the time we start to relax, we realize how foolhardy that was because there are still pages left! The stakes are life and death, and those stakes don’t ease up until nearly the very end.
Dory and Chad’s shared past adds a new kind of tension to the story, one swirling with old regrets and lingering love. No matter whether the past or the present is dominating their feelings in any given moment, the emotions run deep and the chemistry between them hasn’t lessened over the last five years of separation. Little Ivy is an adorable scene stealer who will quickly win your heart, and watching her completely capture Chad’s heart, too, will keep a besotted grin on your face.
Bottom Line: Whether or not you’ve read the previous books in this series, Secrets Resurfaced can be enjoyed on its own without the reader feeling lost. You’ll definitely want to go back and catch up though, because each book in this series is amazing. High-stakes action & suspense captivate your attention from start to finish, and the romance is redemptive, swoony, and sweet. Another fabulous read from Dana Mentink!
