I really enjoyed this story. I loved how much research clearly went into presenting the Native American side of this story and respecting their cultural heritage. The way Katherine's Navajo heritage was woven throughout the book really added to the rich details of the world. I felt like I got to appreciate more of her as a character knowing more of the ancient history she connects so strongly too through her people.

I really loved Gabe and Katherine together as well. I loved that this wasn't a story where she tossed aside all her previous thoughts on relationships the minute she met him and just fell into bed with him. I adored that he never pushed for more than Katherine was ready to give him. And through that journey they really found each other and the strength of a relationship they could build together. Of course all of that is happening while they're dodging bullets and figuring out just what is going on. The mystery/suspense elements were well done and I appreciated that Katherine wasn't as impetuous as some of the previous heroine's. She wasn't throwing herself into dangerous situations without thinking through the risks or taking the appropriate steps to insure as much safety as possible. She was going to do her job as a reporter, get to the truth, but was also going to do her best to make sure whoever was trying to kill her didn't get an easy chance at it. I felt for Gabe in this story as well. His past has left a mark on his soul and he's determined not to open that wound up again. But in doing so he's never really healed. And all of just who Kat is, is forcing that confrontation with his past whether he planned for it or not.

I really liked these two together and the story was well developed. I struggle a bit listening to audio with a heavier sexual content, but the narrator here was really good and I could switch back and forth and enjoy both the written and audio version as I read.
