Revell Review- Wait for Me by Susan May Warren

Hey y'all! Wow, it has been such a long time! I've missed you all, so I thought after taking a break for the summer, I'd jump back in with some new titles. Here is one of the most recent ones: 

*Summary*

Pete Brooks can’t believe he’s waited an entire year for Jess Tagg to return to Montana, only to have her break his heart by getting engaged to her ex-fiancé. Worse, a series of mistakes on the job have cost lives, and Pete isn’t sure he wants to continue to work in Search and Rescue. Maybe if he can just get over Jess, he can figure out how to move forward.

EMT Jess Tagg has returned to Montana to finally give her heart to Pete, but it seems he’s no longer interested. When a terrible fight between them sparks an impulsive decision, she finds herself crashed on the side of a highway along with Esme Shaw. And just when she thinks things couldn’t get any worse, she and Esme are taken captive and into the untamed Montana wilderness–with murderous intent.

Now Pete and the other PEAK Rescue Team members are in a race against time, the elements, and the actions of a vengeful man. Pete will have to use everything he’s learned to find Jess and Esme–and pray that his past mistakes don’t cost him the life of the woman he can’t stop loving.

                         *My Thoughts*

No reader wants a favorite series to end. It's like saying goodbye to a good friend. That being said, Wait for Me was the perfect ending to an amazing series. It honestly was so worth the wait!

I had some conflicting thoughts about Jess in this book. I hurt for her as she showed up in the earlier books, but in this book, I started out a bit frustrated with her. I just found myself having a hard time understanding her. Sometimes she felt like the "victim" and sometimes I was angry with her actions. As the book progressed, I started to get what her part was in the story and enjoyed their story more. Susan did a fabulous job of making her the sweet heroine we wanted while keeping her "human".

I am convinced that Pete is everyone's favorite hero. Sweet, kind, and forgiving, Pete's wounded but strong spirit left us coming back for more through the whole Montana Rescue Series. Getting glimpses of his and Jess' complicated relationship throughout the series left us hanging with Susan's usual knack for suspense. Through the story, we were able to see relationships and broken spirits mended in the way only a last book can accomplish. 

Most importantly, this book had what we all want...closure. We all love the suspense, but at the end of the day, we want a book that makes us sigh when we reach the last page. And sure, every author wants that sigh to mean we're sorry the series ended, but more importantly we want to feel like it ended as it should. Susan gave us the story we wanted, while still wrapping up the story with a beautiful bow that leaves us aching for her next work of art. I, for one, can't wait!
