I am so excited to be sharing this review today – Susan May Warren is one of my all-time favorite authors, and her latest book Wait for Me was as fantastic as usual!
The Basics
Title: Wait for Me by Susan May Warren
Series: Montana Rescue series (Book 6 of 6)
Genre: Action/Adventure, Contemporary Romance
From the Back Cover: 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
I can’t say enough good things about Susan May Warren’s books! I always make sure to pre-order her new releases, and her books fill a whole shelf on my bookcase. She is one of my all-time favorite authors, and I was so excited for the chance to read her newest book before it released on November 6!
Wait for Me is the epic conclusion to the Montana Rescue series. It takes us from the wilderness of Montana to New York and Paris, and catches us up with the other characters we’ve come to love. If a series has to end, it can’t have a better ending than this! Pete and Jess’ story has been one of my favorites as we’ve seen pieces throughout the series, and now they finally have their own book. We finally get the whole story about what has happened between them over the last year – what drove them apart, and what will have to happen in each of their hearts to bring them back together.
One of my favorite things about Susan May Warren’s books is how she writes such authentic characters and weaves their faith in so naturally. Pete is a bold hero, willing to do whatever it takes to rescue people in danger, especially the woman he loves. He just can’t seem to get Jess out of his heart, even after she’s broken it – and that leaves him vulnerable. Jess, for her part, feels caught between two worlds and is just trying not to hurt anyone else – she has to learn who she really is and what love really means. I also really enjoyed Ned and Shae’s story, and the element of suspense with a plot twist at the end I didn’t see coming!
Wait for Me is the perfect combination of two love stories wrapped up in an epic, heart-pounding adventure that you won’t be able to put down. You don’t want to miss this series!
