Riches Beyond Measure by Mary Connealy

This is the final book in the California State Treasure series.  It would be helpful to read the first two books in the series as this continues the treasure hunt that was started in the first book.  This book starts with an earthquake that shakes the earth violently and causes great crevices to open up in the earth.  After the quake it is discovered that the treasure being stored at the ranch has been stolen.  Cord and Annie have been skirting their attraction for each other for awhile.  This is their story.  In order for Annie to lead the treasure hunters, who are all men, she has to get married.  As it would not be proper for her to be the only women.  This was a good mystery that I enjoyed reading and would recommend.

Out of Time by Irene Hannon

Cara Tucker is taking a sabbatical from her professorship at a remote estate to study journals written in a nearly forgotten dialect, paw paw French.  Someone does not want her unearthing things that are written in the journals.  

Sheriff Brad Adams has seen lots of this in the small community.  But not what's happening at the estate where Cara is staying.  

Cara and Brad are drawn to each other almost immediately.  As they explore their feelings for each other, they must first find out who is causing the strange things to happen.  Cara finding a dead body for one thing. 

This is an exciting book and I recommend you read.  It is a part of a series.  But it is not necessary to read the first two installments understand this book.  Although, they are just as good as this book.

Canyon of Deceit by DiAnn Mills

Therese Palmer is a wilderness survival expert who gets called to search for a kidnapped child.  She reaches out to Texas Ranger Blane Gardner for help, who she has known for awhile. It's a dicey rescue as the child is the child of a Russian professor who is teaching in the US.  He wants no police involved.

The book started out slow.  There was a lot of descriptions about how to hike and rock climb.  I found myself skipping pages to get through all of that.  About half way through the book I felt the actual story line began.  With Therese and Blane going after the child.  I didn't skip a lot of pages in the last half.

I did like the fact that this wasn't a love at first sight book.  Therese and Blane has know each other and had even dated a few times.  Therese wouldn't go out on any more dates with Blane when she found out he wasn't interested in God.  

I've always been a fan of DiAnn Mills books.  But this one just didn't hit the mark for me.
