Buried Mountain Secrets by Terri Reed

Description

Nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide.

Can they get off the mountain alive?

Desperate to find her missing teenage brother, Maya Gallo ventures into the Colorado Rockies expecting rough terrain—not deadly treasure hunters. But when she’s caught in their crosshairs, ruggedly handsome mounted patrolman Alex Trevino comes to her aid. The deputy sheriff knows what these bandits are capable of, so getting Maya—and her brother—home safely may be his hardest mission yet.

My Thoughts:

I enjoyed this book.  Maya is an extremely devoted older sister. Her brother is special needs but is trying to figure life out for himself. I think her brother Brady was my favorite character.  The author did a wonderful job with him and showing how 'wonderful' and 'scary' things can be for these special people. It reminds me of a favorite cousin of mine!

Alex is a deputy in town that may or may not be being groomed by the sheriff to take over when the sheriff retires.  He is given the lead on the case when Brady is missing and becomes very protective of the two siblings. There was action, some romance, and plenty of suspects. A few characters I wasn't sure of, one I didn't like at all and some that I loved! I liked the secondary story with Alex's father and that the author set up some of the characters for another book.  I can't wait to read it!

It was a 5/5 for me. Loved the story and there was plenty of suspense.
