Sausan May Warren is well known for her romantic suspense. Her readers will surely enjoy the first book in her new series, Track of Courage. The setting is one of her favorites, Alaska near the Copper River in winter. I loved the characters and the growth they showed throughout the book. It is always enjoyable to read one of Ms. Warren's books as you get cameos of old friends from previous books and series. Track of courage is full of drama and suspense with romancefor added fun. I love the way she works faith into her plots. The only reason i gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that I would prefer to have normal down to earth characters rather than super stars. That said Track of Courage is still a great book and well worth reading.
I was given a copy by NetGalley for review purposes. All thoughts are my own.

A hijacked plane. A pursuing killer. And a K9's instinct to help them make it out alive.
Pop singer Keely Williams's search for her biological mother in Alaska has been painfully unsuccessful. Now she just wants to escape this wild frontier and never look back. But when her plane is hijacked, she's suddenly plunged into a race against not only an Alaskan blizzard but also a killer who's on her tail.
After a career-ending injury, ex-cop Dawson Mulligan has only one friend--Caspian, the stray dog he adopted. Dawson just wants to figure out how to get his life on track, but during a flight home to Copper Mountain, he spots a downed plane and stops to help. Except, when his not-a-rescue dog runs off into the woods and discovers the trail of a missing survivor, it's up to the former cop to stage a rescue.
But Dawson has no idea he's being pulled into a deadly pursuit, or that Caspian is more than he seems. There might be redemption and second chances waiting for both Dawson and Keely if they have the courage to face their wounded pasts and fight for their future.
Join master storyteller Susan May Warren for a propulsive ride through the Alaskan wilderness, where love might be the riskiest--and most rewarding--adventure of all.
Prepare to experience edge-of-your-seat action combined with heart-stirring romance and heroic K9 companions in this exhilarating romantic suspense that will thrill fans of Lynette Eason and Elizabeth Goddard.
