Hold onto your hat!

My rating is 4.5 stars

Danger abounds for Dory as she conducts her investigation. And because Chad insists on helping her, his life is also in peril.

Secrets Resurfaced is a fast-paced story that follows Dory and Chad's investigation. It seemed like they barely got out of one disaster before they were up to their eyeballs in another one!

I had already fallen for Chad in the previous Roughwater Ranch stories. I loved his very quiet ways and how comfortable he was with silence. And especially loved his strongly protective manner!

Dory thought she was strong and was, in many ways. Yet she wasn't unbreakable. I really liked her vulnerability and the way she was able to trust Chad even when she wasn't convinced that he cared for her.

Though Ivy, their daughter, was not in the story much, when she was she stole the scenes! She was simply precious. I loved the way that when she discovered Chad was her Daddy, she simply loved him and fully embraced her position as his daughter, trusting him completely.

And I would be remiss if I didn't mention another hero of the story, Meatball, the tripod dog. He fell more head-over-heels in love with Dory in the way that only a dog can, and as a result, he was able to ... Well, maybe I shouldn't give this away!

If you have read the other stories in the Roughwater Ranch series, you will be glad to know that the characters you have come to love from them are back with more than just a mention. In fact, it was a good thing that Liam was there! If you haven't read them, it is optional as each story stands alone. However, they are so enjoyable you will want to read them all.
