A new dawn
Wounded veteran Ryder Shelton wants to retreat from the world, and can think of nowhere better than his hometown of Rankins, Alaska. It's cold, clean and best of all—isolated.Though Rankins is small and remote, the people who live there are warm and caring, and butt their way into Ryder's life, especially one pretty and determined neighbor Jessie Madigan. Jessie and her special dog Fife start to mean a lot to Ryder. But is he ready to return to normal life? Is Ryder ready for romance?
Will Ryder forgive himself and embrace life?
Autumn at Jasper Lake by Carol Ross is a fantastic short story. This novella is part of Seasons of Alaska series by Ms. Ross.
This novella centers around Ryder Shelton. He is a veteran, who is blaming himself for something that has happened in his past. The heroine is Jessie Madigan who is trying to help him and help Fife.
Ryder Shelton
What I like about Ryder is that he loves dogs, and is very helpful. His love of dogs comes from his upbringing, and he so does his need to help people. What I don’t like about Ryder is that he takes the blame for a lot of stuff, and he doesn’t think that he deserves to be happy because of what happened in the past.
Jessie Madigan
What I like about Jessie is that just like the hero she loves dogs and is excellent at her job. That job is to take care of any animal that needs help. What I don’t like about Jessie is that she is continually pushing assistance on people even when that person wants to have their pity party.
Five Stars
Autumn at Jasper Lake by Carol Ross is another excellent book. I adored the characters and the plot. This series sounds pretty good; I hope to check it out. This story is book #3.5 in her Seasons of Alaska series.
I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to anyone that loves romances.
