Good book
Good book that kept my attention from start to finish. The book opens as Kenzie, the new doctor for Blake, Alaska, is on the road headed for her new home. A native Texan, Kenzie is a little unnerved by the remoteness and wonders what she's gotten herself into. Cautious in the pouring rain, she's following the car ahead of her when she sees it go out of control and plunge off the bridge and into the river. She stops her car to see if she can rescue the driver.When the man emerges from the water, his size makes Kenzie a little wary, but her medical training overcomes it. She's stunned that he has no memory of who he is or what happened. With no other real options, Kenzie takes him home with her. Her "John Doe" doesn't remember anything about himself other than an overwhelming feeling that he is in danger.I enjoyed seeing the relationship develop between John Doe, whose name turns out to be Brett, and Kenzie. While still cautious, Kenzie feels Brett is one of the good guys. As they spend time together, tiny pieces of his memory return, such as his love of cooking. I liked how appreciative he was of Kenzie for allowing him to hide out at her place while he recovered and that he repaid her kindness by cooking for her. Kenzie came to enjoy having someone waiting for her when she got home. There are some sweet moments between them during those times. Sparks of attraction began to build. Then Brett's memory returns, and he knows why he was so sure he was in danger - and that he'll do anything to make sure Kenzie is safe. I liked watching them grow closer and share those peaceful evenings. I especially liked that no big misunderstanding drove them apart at the end, just the realization that they belonged together.The suspense of the story was good, though low-key until the end. Kenzie and Brett keep his presence secret while waiting for his memory to return. This turns out to be a good thing when strangers come to town asking questions. The tension builds as Brett's memory starts to return, and we get a glimpse of what he's been through. There is an attack at the cabin that reveals an unexpected adversary. There are a couple of twists leading up to the final confrontation. I loved how the townspeople supported Kenzie and shaped the resolution of that confrontation. I did find the ending anti-climactic for both Brett's and Kenzie's situations.

Romantic Suspenses
I received an arc from NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.A woman on her way to Blake Alaska to start her new job as a Dr witnesses a car going off a bridge. She finds a man swimming to shore and takes him in.Brett has no memory of who he is and what happened to him but he can sense he is in Danger. Kenzie takes him in so he can heal but danger soon finds them and threatens their lives.I love how this book really kept you in the dark about Brett. The author did well giving pieces of information as Brett’s memories returned. Great read and great suspense.

Great Romantic Suspense
McKenzie is from Texas a warm state and she is now the new doctor in cold Alaska. She is on her way home when she sees a car going over the bridge and she comes the rescue. She rescues John Doe who has no memory of he is. Because McKenzie is a doctor she takes John Doe home with her. As McKenzie and John Doe are spending more and more time together they are enjoying each other’s company. John seems to be a nice guy so for McKenzie there’s no fear or danger. John’s memory is returning and he knows that his name is Brett and knows why he is danger. This is a great romantic suspense that held me captive wanting to know what was John Doe “Brett’s” story. Loved how the two got together and had great chemistry.I received an ARC via NetGalley HARLEQUIN - Romance (U.S. & Canada), Harlequin Romantic Suspense and I am leaving my review voluntarily.
