Runaround by Jay Crownover
3.0
3. 75 stars. This was a good book. Runaround is Webb and Ten's book from the Getaway series. Ten is a forest ranger and former FBI agent. Webb works at the Warner ranch after having been through an ordeal in Cy and Leo's book. Ten and Webb have had an attraction since they met, but she has rebuffed his advances. Webb is a flirt and trouble seems to follow him, plus he is six years younger then her. He is very interested in her though and can see them together in a serious relationship in the future. When trouble finds Webb again in the form of a bank robbing identical twin he never knew existed, Ten and Webb team up to find out what is going on and who this brother is. They go on a cross country trip and face demons from Webb's past, falling in love along the way.
The story and writing is very good. I enjoyed the suspense and was entertained. I like Webb and Ten in general. Their relationship is a bit slow to develop. I did find the material a little dry at times and I didn't 100% fully connect to the couple. Also, I felt the final conflict between the couple a little contrived.
Still, overall, I enjoyed this book. I like the feel of this series with the ranch setting and small town vibe. Also, we are introduced to the town of Loveless, TX, about which there is a new series coming soon, and meet some new intriguing characters there. I look forward to more from Ms. Crownover in the future!
