Jill Sorenson

A backwoods camping trip leads two divorced parents into dangerous terrain when a child goes missing in this novel from “a master of romantic suspense” (Booklist, starred review).

Abby Hammond was hoping for a getaway with her teenage daughter, Brooke. She didn’t realize the nature retreat would also include Brooke’s stepbrother and his dad, Nathan Strom. The only thing Abby has in common with the former pro athlete is that their exes cheated with each other. That, and a visceral attraction that’s growing more complicated with every step through the picturesque woods.

Nathan’s bad-boy reputation lost him his career and his family. After years of regret, he’s ready to fight for what truly matters—and that includes Abby’s hard-won trust. When Brooke goes missing, Nathan is determined to come to the rescue. But the deeper they go into the rugged mountains, the more dangerous the territory will prove—for their safety and for their hearts.

Backwoods

A “fast paced romantic thriller” about two earthquake survivors who team up and fall in love is a “twisty roller-coaster ride [that] keeps pages turning” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

As an emergency paramedic, Lauren Boyer is dedicated and highly capable. Until an earthquake strikes, trapping her beneath the freeway with a group of strangers—including Iraq war veteran Garrett Wright.

Handsome and take-charge Garrett aids Lauren in her rescue efforts, even as the steely look in his eyes seems to hide dark secrets. When a gang of escaped convicts goes on the attack, Garrett’s bravery makes him more than a courageous bystander to Lauren. If they can save the others before time runs out, maybe, just maybe, they can explore the fire igniting between them—if the truth about who he really is doesn’t pull them apart forever. . . . 

“As the survivors fight for their lives, Sorenson describes everything in stunning detail to create a riveting romantic adventure.” —Booklist

Aftershock

A bodyguard is assigned to protect a politician’s daughter—the woman he has loved since they survived an earthquake together—in this romantic suspense.

Every day, bodyguard Owen Jackson puts his life on the line—and keeps his feelings for Penny Sandoval locked away. Assigned to protect Penny’s father, a presidential candidate, Owen can’t get emotionally involved. That is, until Penny and her young son, Cruz, are abducted and taken deep into the California badlands. 

Owen knows the bleak territory from his childhood. Worse, he knows the gang leader making ransom demands—his own brother, Shane. When a terrified Penny escapes into the desert with Cruz, Owen has to save her: from the elements and from the gang in close pursuit. Owen has hidden the darkness in his past from Penny. Now his only chance of keeping her alive is to let her see the man he really is—even if it means losing the only woman he’ll ever want.
